Stress Week

We're actually not stressed out, but we do have a lot going on over the next few weeks. We were planning on going to the Tetons on Saturday, but since my finals are coming up, John's GMAT test is soon, and we are going to be moving, we decided that this Saturday, we needed to stay at home and prepare for our studies.

Meanwhile, Olivia has been doing a lot of thing! She rolls around everywhere, grabs everything, talks to herself, goes to sleep on her own, almost can hold her own bottle, and sometimes even sleeps 9 hours straight!

Here she is sitting up, or folded in half. She sits like that occasionally, but prefers to be played with.

She loves playing with her toys now!

And here she is already 4 months old. She started out in the 25th percentile for height, the moved up to the 50th, and after her last appointment, she is now in the 75th percentile for height. Hopefully she won't a little stump like her parents.


She is now 4 months old and has already been to six different states! We are trying to do as much as we can while the weather is still good in Rexburg. After we finish with all of our work, we'll go back to having our weekly trips.

Olivia Goes to Yellowstone

John's mom is here and on Saturday we went to Yellowstone! We have three National Parks within a two hour drive from where we live. Unfortunately we haven't gone to any of them yet this summer, but here's our first trip to Yellowstone. There were way too many pictures to choose from, so here a just a few.





And this is my favorite place in the entire park!


Next week: Tetons?

Catching Up on Work

It has been a really busy week for both John and me. We mostly needed to catch up on things that we put off from going out and having fun. Next week we have a fun week planned, but here are just a few things that Olivia has been up to.

Sitting Up. She can't by herself yet, but she's only 3 1/2 months old. She will soon enough.

Push ups: she hates being on her stomach. This happy moment only lasted a few minutes.


Smores with Reeses. We are trying to have a BBQ twice/week before we move. These were a must.


I've been looking for a brim hat for Olivia and found this at Old Navy!


Chillin' on the couch with Daddy!


John's mom is coming this week! We have a lot of things planned, so a very good update will come next week!
