We are going to have to watch this girl like a hawk when she gets older. 

Muhahahah! 

Mmmm, homemade bread. Um...how do I get the stuff that doesn't extend past my fist? This is a perdicament. 

The long Saturday....well worth it!

Yesterday was amazing! We loaded into the car in the wee hours of the morning and headed down to Manti to go to the temple and hang out with the family.
After a delicious lunch a bunch of us headed up to Maple Canyon to try out some rock climbing. That is where this tree comes in...nice huh? It was getting a little late and we had some tired babies with us, so we didn't climb much, but it sure was nice to be back on the rocks. Al and I hadn't been climbing since I was 3 or 4 months preggo!

...what is that? I want it! 

Peek-a-boo!

I know mommy didn't really disappear....dang! Booby-trapped!

Sassy Tenna!

"Where did you get that baby? She's too big to be yours!" This was a comment made to us today at church. I guess she is a pretty good sized baby...before he said the second part I was wondering if this kind brother was refering to how cute she is, and we....well...aren't.
Anywho, she continues to learn new ways of making us smile so we hope this picture does the same for you!

Please, this is very serious, don't bother me while I am composing! 

Thinking about crawling

She can get that butt up pretty high (higher than this) but I am not sure she knows she wants to move yet!

Having a happy fit...she was throwing her legs up and down, it was soooo cute! 

I was just perusing my old pictures and I got all nestalgic! Where has my little bald baby gone? This is Tenna at about two months of age! Cute huh? Now she is seven months and I am stunned at how fast time goes when you are the parent watching the child grow.  

Do babies understand the laws of physics?

Is part of the amazement due to defying gravity? Who knows? We were out and about yesterday when I noticed a little party shop, so we stopped in for a balloon. She was laughing and playing in the store waiting for daddy. I think that was a well spent 46 cents!

Tenna decided that it was time to be a puppy! Ok that's not really it, though it sort of looks like it. Do you like her new sweatshirt? It is to match her hat from last week. Her aunt and I purchased the purple fleece together. This was my first atempt at designing my own pattern. Yeah, it helps to have a super cute model! 

Our Family

How did she get so blond?

Our little genius babies are playing the piano. Uncle Michael took Tenna to the piano and she was playing her little heart out (dancing and everything) so we thought we would let them both at it. So far they aren't very interactive (other than trying to grab eachothers eyes), but we have high hopes for a great friendship! 

Believe it or not...

Can you believe that this is five generations of women? Well it is cheating a bit (step-great-grandma) but it is still quite amazing.
BL-R: Great-grandma , Grandma
FL-R: Great-great-grandma , Mama , Tenna (baby)

I thought the expression on her face here was the beginning of a story...anyone have any ideas? 

Tenna is modeling her new hat. It's fun to make baby things when you have such a cute model! Tenna has also decided she wants to dance! She loves to bounce her littl body up and down when her music plays. It is so cute! I can't believe how fast she is learning new things! 

Tenna likes to help mama whenever she can. 

Playing dress up on a rainy day!

This is a picture of Tenna in her booties. She loved this fabric at the store so I had to buy it for her (particularly since she drooled all over it!) Plus this is a great picture of her teeth! I think you will have to click on it to see a bigger image if you really want to see them though. She is such a happy girl! That is all we ever hear when we go anywhere "I have never seen such a happy baby!"
