Lately....Lola

It took Lola a few days to adjust after saying goodbye to dadda and getting used to a new house. I was worried it was a new clingy phase and I would never get to shower again, but she is back to her old silly self.... begging me to chase her while she crawls, laughing so and then dipping her head into my shoulder for a hug. She is so happy and already knows how to tease me. I love every second of this little girl.

Lola was very happy to get a package from Grandma and Grandpa Taylor. I love the little outfit they chose for her and the Valentine caterpillar was perfect for her.

Sporting her new Valentine clothes while playing with her toys. I love it when I find her playing by herself, she is so funny to watch.

All ready for church!

Testing out some new trunks.

Jerzie and Lola. They are 2 months apart. We love our friends here!

Lola has been learning all about sippy cups. She is a master at straws and is pretty good with a cup, but I decided to introduce a sippy cup so I have less spills to clean up. It took her a few minutes to figure it out at which time I found her lying on her back in the hallway. She stayed here for about 5 minutes so I guess that means she likes it now.

Lola turns 11 months.

If you're sick of Lola pictures go no further! I just have to post these for our family. She is a happy little girly. Happy 11 months little one, mamma and dadda love you!

Lola grew a diaper rash so she got "naked bum treatment. "


Over Christmas we went to Kirtland to see the nativities with our friends.

Lola got a gift from some of Bryan's work friends and now she is a ballerina.

TROUBLE!!

I have been dreading this moment every since I found out I was pregnant with Lola, but then when it happened I ran for my camera instead of trying to stop the little hands. Couldn't stop smiling and laughing after it happened. I am sure I'll get sick of things like this but for now I am going to savor each encounter.

VICTORY!

Lola was VERY interested in her new book daddy was reading to her.
Lola was also GRATEFUL for the awesome puzzle Santa brought for her.

Thanksgiving Break

This was actually taken Christmas Eve, Lola was so happy to get her new jammies and then be put to bed.
We got to see both families over Bryan's break so we were in St. George for half the time and Clarkston/Twin Falls half the time. We spent lots of time in the hot tub in St. George.
This was taken before we left for our vacation. Cheating without the helmet on for the picture.

Aunt Saundra, London and Jackson gave Lola and awesome Christmas gift....

No clue why mommy and daddy are laughing so hard.
Mommy got a vitamix and I love my smoothie drinks so much I don't even know they are loaded with spinach.
This one was really green but I still thought it was delicious.
Went on a hike in St. George.
Grandpa thought he would fall so he held on the entire time.

Saundra announced she was having a boy by letting J and L open up his first new outfit.
