Mini Vacation

Over Presidents' day we took a mini vacation down to St. George. We went down with Jordan and Kristy and stayed with Kristy's parents at their house. We went rock climbing, played games, ate delicious swig cookies, but mostly enjoyed some sunshine and warm weather. It was a nice break from school and work and it was just what we needed. Paisley did great on the car ride. We stopped in Fillmore on the way down and I fed her real quick, but other than that she slept and played with Kristy :) On the way home she was so exhausted from our weekend, not to mention she didn't get a nap all morning, so she slept the entire way home. She really is such a great baby and always delivers when she needs to.

 
First 5 pictures are from St. George.
Last 4 pictures are Paisley on Valentines Day :)

Paisley at 6 months

Pipsqueak turned 6 months! I feel so accomplished that I was able to keep my child alive for 6 whole months. :) She is so much fun! We love watching her change, grow, and discover new things each day.

*Can roll over from tummy to back and back to tummy
*Switches objects from hand to hand easily
*Able to reach for objects she wants and has an opinion for what she wants
*Starting to eat solid food. Has tried rice cereal, squash, and sweet potato, a few bites of banana and bread.
*Laughs all the time
*Loves playing the spitting game with dad
*Loves being thrown in the air
*No teeth yet
*Mostly wearing 3-6 month clothing, can still wear some 3m
*Size 2 diapers-about to switch to size 3
*Can stand up well, just needs a few fingers to hold to help her balance
*So happy in the morning-she wakes up and just talks to herself for a few minutes and when I walk in to get her she gets a huge toothless grin on her face, and clasps her hands together. It's adorable
*Grabs everything and puts it right in her mouth
*Sleeps from about 8pm to 7am with a 2 hour nap in the day and 1-2 small naps.
*Sleeps in her crib (since the end of January) and will sometimes fall asleep on her own if we just lay her down after she gets a bath and eats.
*Will not take a bottle
*Loves going on walks and being ouside

*Favorite toys include; rattle, measuring spoons, her little light up singing radio, rocking horse teether.

We love you Pais!
