Las Vegas

Doug and I had the opportunity to go on a trip to Vegas with his parents. It was a much needed wonderful trip. We stayed in the Bellagio, I have always wanted to stay there and it was every bit as good as I imagined and more. We relaxed, ate wonderful food, went shopping, enjoyed the PBR, bull riding, watched The Lion King, and had fun exploring the Bellagio. It was nice to have some time together Doug and I, and we were in great company with Craig and Linda. Brynn was so gracious to watch our two little ones while we were away, and they were in good hands. So here is some pictures of our little adventure.


The Atrium at the Bellagio
I love seeing how they decorate the atrium for each season, and I am never disappointed. We would walk in and it smelled so fragrant. One of my favorite parts of the Bellagio.

The Orchids were gorgeous.

There was a greenhouse of orchids.

I love this tree he has such friendly eyes.


This pumpkin was a little over 1,000 pounds.








I love the trees with their curly limbs.





These leaves were a sight to see they look like they are made of glass, and they are hung as if it looks like they are falling.






The largest chocolate fountain.





The pool area at the Bellagio.




This was the view from our room.



We ventured out of the hotel to watch the fountains down below.

Relaxing at the pool.





Enjoying the bull riding.

FALL BREAK

For Fall Break we headed up north to Bear Lake, but before we got there we stopped off at the Children's Museum in Ogden. It was so cute, it focuses more on Literature and History. Then we headed to Bear Lake and had so much fun, it was perfect Fall weather and gorgeous as ever.



Children's Museum
There was even something for Bailey to play on.



Aaron and Logan playing chess on the huge chess board. I think Aaron won.

Camille hung out in the doll room, while the boys were playing chess.


Braxton on a ship like Lewis and Clark.








This one we had to take for Daddy and Grandma and Grandpa Smith.



Bear Lake








The kids had so much fun playing at the little park at the condos.












The indoor pool was perfect temperature for Bailey she thought she was taking a bath.




Beautiful back drop for pictures. Wish Doug could have been with us.















Teaching the little ones how to skip rocks.





Thanks Mom and Dad we had a wonderful time.

Hobblecreek

I'm a month late posting pictures. Our neighbors invited us on a picnic and hike up Hobble creek canyon over conference weekend. It was so nice to get out and enjoy the outdoors and the fall leaves.

Smart Cookie

This is her latest trick, which scared Mom, She was sitting in her bumbo while I was doing stuff in the kitchen, I turn my back to throw something away, and this is what I find when I turned back. Scared me so bad. I love the bumbo, but now she knows how to get out, How? Well I put her back in and she proceeded to show us again. No more leaving her on the counter in the bumbo. She is one smart cookie.





Eating her toes

I forgot to include this picture. I love when she sucks and chews on her toes.


Baby Girl is 6 months

We can't believe our baby girl is already 6 months old. She is such a joy to have and is happy almost always, especially if she is with mom. So here are some fun pictures of her and some of her stats:


  • She can sit up, but would rather not.

  • She can get her knees underneath her and rock, she will be crawling before we know it.

  • She is a Momma's girl, but loves it when Daddy comes home.

  • Her face lights up when she sees Braxton.

  • She loves to sleep on her tummy and in a little ball.

  • She will look at someone till they look at her, then give them a big smile.

  • Weight: 16 1bs. 14 oz. 75%

  • Height: 27 1/2 in. still over 100%

  • When she is happy to see someone she does this ahh sound.

  • Braxton loves to pretend to eat her tummy and make her giggle.

  • Has ate carrots, squash, beans, and peas and will be starting fruits next week.

We just love our little girl and can't get enough of her smiles and giggles.








She loves her jumparoo





Bouncer is still okay, but not for long.


Braxton loves taking baths with her.















I love the way she sleeps.













Now she is playing with me.
