10 months! (almost)

This girl just keeps growing!  She is now crawling around the house, eating like a champ (scramble eggs, cheese and bananas are her favorites), and furniture walking.  She still LOVES her big brother, and he is pretty fond of her as well.  

Stats from her most recent MD appointment:

Weight: 19 lb 7 oz (65%ile)

Height: 28" (47%ile)

Not too shabby considering that she was 1% for weight and 6% for height at birth.  

Are you guys twins?

Abby and I met up in the park for a morning run.  We attracted a bit of attention as we showed up in matching outfits!  I swear this wasn't planned!

Family 5K

John signed the family up for his job's 5K 'healthy people' race.  Roc rode his bike and Calla was pushed in the stroller.  Roc did great for the first lap, proudly exclaiming to everyone we passed, "I'm winning the race!"  Unfortunately he got a bit tired and told me that his "arms hurt from running so fast" (I know, I was confused too as he was on his bike!).  After one lap he saw a playground and a large inflatable slide and made a beeline towards it.  

Roc on the slide.  Since we bailed halfway through the race he had this to himself for a good 20 min! He had a blast!

Sillys

Roc's teacher sent us this photo, when I showed it to Roc he said, "I'm so silly, I'm coloring with my toes!"  

Roc helped me plant some flowers in our front yard and got dirt ALL OVER, including on the end of his nose. :)

This little lady has my heart!

Aviary time with Calla's buddies, Eleanora and Kai.

Granny Time

Granny and Grandad came out to visit in May.  They took Roc to the Aquarium, spent a day riding Trax (our train system) downtown to the library, and cooked us many delicious meals.  Unfortunately I don't have many photos from the visit (my phone will only take selfies) but was able to capture these two cuties cuddling at a BBQ at the Rideouts.  Aren't they adorable?

More snacks please

Roc's first official (paid) airplane seat.  He loved flying, watching take-off and landing through the window, giggling at the turbulence, enjoying his snacks and watching his very own movie.  

Oregon get-a-way

Some fun photos from our Hood River and Portland vacation last month.  We were a bit nervous to travel with 2 kiddos but they were so good!  Roc loved having his own seat (and tv) on the airplane and John and I felt like sherpa, hauling 2 carseats, 3 bags and a pack-n-play through the airport.  

We spent the first 2 nights in Hood River at Uncle Mac's house.  It was great to catch up with Mac and see all of his house updates.  I think we were even the first guests in his new and improved loft!

Katie L. was in Oregon for a conference and joined us in Hood River for a night.  She came dressed appropriately as the Easter Bunny!  

Mt Hood in the background!

We went for an epic hike in Portland with Katie and the kiddos.  After about 3 miles Roc asked, "can we just lie down in the grass now?"  This kid knows how to vacation!

My little Calla Lily in the Oregon sun

After visiting Mac we went spent two nights in Portland with my college bestie, Katie N.  She has two kids very close to the same age as Roc and Calla.  We hadn't seen each other since my wedding so we had lots of catching up to do.  Unfortunately we didn't get a photo of the full families but captured some cute ones of the kids.

Roc and Azie were fast friends!

Rhys and Calla

I thought I'd come back to SLC exhausted from the trip but I felt rejuvenated having spent time with some of my favorite people!
