Yay... For Cereal!






Layla got to eat her first solids on Memorial weekend. She was so ready to eat them! It was hilarious watching her first bite of solids. She had a funny look on her face, but the second bite she tried to eat it even faster! I didn't think that feeding her would be so messy...gosh, was I wrong!

5 Months old! Check This Out!

Here is a video of Layla's latest discovery. She has figured out how to move/crawl....This little girl is just growing up WAY to fast. This video is long, but you can see that she does move herself forward. When we got home from Vegas I had set her down on the floor facing the kitchen and went and did something. I come back and she is facing the opposite direction! When I got home yesterday from work Paul said that she is moving! He left her on the bed, but had pillows surrounding her and she had pushed them off and got close to the edge. He said he was only downstairs just for a minute! I guess she shall no longer be left alone. Happy 5 month B-day!



Babies!


It was so fun to see Ana and her cute baby Paisley. It was funny they were both wearing the same shirt! Kelcy fell in love with this little puppy. It was the runt of the litter and she just didnt want to put it down. It was cute the puppy would cuddle with and lay on its back!

Our Trip to Las Vegas!

I finally got out of the house and went to Las Vegas! This was my first trip in a loooong time. I thought I was going to have to make the trip myself, but luckily my mom and dad came to Utah to pout a basketball court at my sisters house. So I asked mom if she was drive back to Vegas with me to help with Layla since Paul couldn't come because he had a conference. It was a pretty good drive there Layla did really well and mom kept her happy. I drove the WHOLE way there. Usually when I get into a car for a long drive I am out right away, so this was an accomplishment. We arrived in Vegas at like 7:30pm and drove straight to David's house had some KFC and then Todd and Ricky came over. We got to meet Ricky's GF. She is pretty cool. He sure found a great girl! Friday didn't do a whole lot, but I did get my hair colored and I chopped it off! I did get a big surprise Friday night...Paul kinda surprised me and by flying in to Vegas. I did find out a little early because Shannon had Davids phone and she was riding with me to Cafe Rio and she asked, "Who is Paul Blanchard"? I asked why and she said cause he just landed! I was so excited to see him. I was not thrilled to drive home by myslef. Saturday we were able to go see Kingston be blessed it was so awesome to see all my brothers in the circle. After the blessing we ate some food then headed to UNLV's graduation! We were there for four hours! It was so cool to see Robbie walking and get his degree. Needless to say they got his last name wrong. Robbie is the first child from our family to graduate with a degree. GO ROBBIE!!!!!!!!! Sunday Paul, me and the babe headed to Doland Springs AZ to his Grandparents house. They haven't met Layla yet. It was so fun to have lunch with them and to hear how there branch is growing and to meet their dog Kidd! He is a very sweet mellow dog. Layla was so smiley with G-Gpa Tom. It was so cute to see them together. She was getting fussy and I asked if i should take her back. He said nope let me figure this out! Sure enough he calmed her down! After visting with them for a few hours we drove back and stopped at Hoover Dam and took some pictures. We got back to Vegas and dropped off Layla at Davids and went to Le Reve at the Wynn...we had already seen the show, but they changed it up on us and it sucked! Luckily Paul made $250 bucks on black jack so the show was free! That pretty much sums up our trip.....

I Found My Tongue



Just yesterday Layla has found her tongue. She keeps sticking it out and laughing. I think she really likes it! Their new discoveries are so stinking precious!







My New Friend!

Layla and I went to Tiffany and Ava's house last week. It was fun to see the two little ones just stare at each other. Layla Kept trying to touch her...it was so cute! I think they had fun getting to interact with someone their size. I can't wait for more play times with them!

Does She Look The Same?




The first picture is of Layla at four months and the second 20 weeks...

She is SO Smart!

I know we all think that our kid is the smartest. And I do think Layla is smart. When she wants something she will get it. Like her binky....
I didn't think that she would have the coordination to grab and scoop it to her mouth. Granted, she never got it IN the right way, but close enough!
