Visiting Great Grandma

Last week we went up to Layton to visit Johns Grandma Twila. We had a good time visiting with Great Grandma and catching up. Katie loved exploring her home and would have gotten into everything had we let her. Great Grandma sent us home with all sorts of books for Katie that we have been enjoying.

Katies Teeth!

So Katie had one tooth come in on July 5th and the next one 2 weeks later they are her two bottom ones. She didn't enjoy getting the teeth and was quite cranky. Now that they are both in she finally has decided that baby food is ok to eat. We haven't been able to get a picture of them until now.

Happy Birthday John Boy!

Katie helped dad blow out the candles.
Aunt Aileen put a party hat on Katie, making her look like a garden gnome. A very cute garden gnome.
Katie sitting on Bubba, we thought he'd give her a ride but he just sat down instead.


Last week John turned a quarter of a century old we celebrated with his family, thanks to them for all the good food especially Tommy and Dan for hosting us. John is a great husband and dad, we love him so much. He takes such good care of us!

Good Old Scipio

We went to Scipio to enjoy the 24th of July festivities and spend time with family. Katie loved her cousins and they kept her laughing. We went to the Maple Grove campground to see Jay and his family who were camping there. The parade was a lot of fun but Katie wasn't sure what the horses were all about. My cousin McKay and his little family were in the parade; they hooked a trailer up to their four wheeler where they sat and tied ropes to the controls. We also went to part of the rodeo where we saw even more family but left early due to a tired and cranky Katie.

Memories

I've seen this on four blogs in the last 2 days so I may as well do the same while it's hot!

1. As a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I (or John) had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember.

2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory of you. It's actually pretty funny to read the responses. If you leave a memory about me, I'll assume you're playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave one about you. If you don't want to play on your blog, or if you don't have a blog, I'll leave my memory of you in my comments.

Katie is crawling!

Katie decided about 3 weeks ago she was going to get this crawling thing down and now she can be really quite fast. I finally got some video of her at John's parents last night. Besides my cute baby crawling at the very beginning it also shows Freida (Aileen's beagle), setting a tennis ball on the piano bench next to John. She had picked him to play with although he wasn't paying attention to her.
