Some Firsts

Took my A-bug to the park today for the first time. I have wanted to for a while and decided we had just better do it before it gets deathly hot! She absolutely loved the swing! She giggled that cute little laugh that I adore and had a blast kicking her chubby little legs.

Yes, those are also pink toenails...she matches mom now! (I love having a girl!)

Yes, I am as white as my baby...

Don't you just love the chub?

um, monthly update?




I am realizing that blogging does not play as big of a role in my life as it once did. This makes me sad because it is/was the ONE journalish-slash-scrapbookish thing I was consistently doing. sort of.

Maybe this is due to the fact the desktop computer is in Addy's room and the best time to blog is during naps; but I'm afraid to disturb her.

Or maybe it is because I have to do 101 other things during that time.

It could be because I have been spending all of my computer time looking at houses...and searching for a job. (and looking at other people's blogs when I need a little break...)

Yes, I am busy...but really, who isn't?? So a long overdue update:

Seth:
* counting down the days left until we can move

* trying to finish all his prep work (aka Harvard online courses) for starting school at BYU

* OBSESSED with his corvette, corvette parts, corvette magazines, corvettes on the road, and
oh, did I mention he got a corvette? (We can share that story later)

* Busy with church, scouts, campouts

* finally got a new (old) phone after going swimming with his (again)

* watching and hoping that his beloved Lakers win the NBA championship again

* finally getting over a nasty sprained ankle from playing basketball, which slowed him down a bit from his weekly basketball and softball games

Lindsay:
* still at CVS and wishing it was in Utah so I didn't have to stress so much about finding a job

* back to studying for the MPJE law test to get licensed in Utah

* boxing things up for the move (and for condo reconstruction repairs next week...)

* looking forward to a week long vacation in VA with my family in the coming weeks

* not really looking forward to a 4 1/2 hour plane ride with a baby...(any suggestions?)

* started plans for a new master bedroom design and other projects but then had to put it all on
hold...can't wait for a new house

Adalyn:
* almost 9 months old

* crawling/scooting/rolling all over the floor

* loves cheerios

* has 2 top and 2 bottom teeth

* loves sucking through a straw

* still has a mullet ;) Yup...just can't bring myself to cut it yet

* totally over rice cereal that she once loved and now sticks out her tongue and spits it out (I mean REALLY spits it out with the sound effects and everything)

* when she gets really excited she starts to flap her arms up and down over and over again like she's going to take off flying

* very vocal

*spoiled rotten


* side note: we have been avid lost fans and stuck with it until the end...Seth made all of these "darma initiative" goodies for our own little season finale party! Isn't he so cute?
