September Updates

September was a good month and a busy month.  In no particular order, here's what we did:  

BBQ with friends and their new baby.  Emilia loved the baby and gave him kisses! This is good news considering we have weeks (10-12, yes i'm counting down) to go until there's a new baby at our house!
 I celebrated my 31st birthday! 
 Emilia is busy at work on her blocks skills!
 Uncle Isaac came over to make cookies!
 Emilia having a good hair day!
 Another good hair day!
 And more good hair days!
 She loves pointing to the animals and making the animal sounds!
 My family on my birthday!
 Us cheering the Utes on to victory against BYU!
 Duck pond at the State Fair!
 Nettina came to help us survive the 3 hour glucose testing!
 Dinner to Asian Star on my birthday!
 My siblings came up to SLC to go to the drive-in movie with us on my birthday.  We saw Pete's Dragon.  I can't believe that none of them have ever been to a drive-in movie before! It was a blast.  Emilia loved the whole movie and flapped her arms like the dragon flapped his wings! It was the best! And it was her first ever movie on a big screen!
 Go UTES!
 Ben won our girl lots of prizes at the fair!
 Ben & Emilia snuggling during the movie!
 E is getting so big!
 There she goes under the monster trucks, no fear (or knowledge of what's above her).
28 weeks= 3rd trimester! Go me & baby girl!
 Ben and Emilia spending time reading together!
 And they spend time digging together too!
 Another great hair day! And she's beginning to like taking selfies!
 She put on her gloves to go help daddy dig!
 Some days have been colder than others around here and she decided to put on my hat!
 Up the stairs.  If I cant find Emilia, she's most likely already up the stairs and playing in the hall. She is an excellent little climber!  I dont have to worry about her at all!
 Ben & Uncle Isaac made a box fort completed with tunnels, doors and windows!  Emilia loves it!
 My little Emilia's handprint on my baby bump!
 Some cute together moments!

 For my birthday I got a blue house! The upgrade looks so nice! (Yellow-before pic, Blue-after pic)!
 Emilia loves taking the dogs on walks!
 Ben & I had a fun night in the rain at the Blink-182 concert!
 Like I said, she climbs on everything! No fear!
 Emilia and I watched Women's Conference together!
 She's so cute!
 Here is the picture of them putting the box fort together! I'm so glad we have such a big family room to play in! 4 couches, igloo tent, box fort and so much more room still left over for fun family activities!
 We got to visit Grandma Alice! Emilia loves books and animal toys!
 We girls had opposite day. Brown/blonde, black/white, and old/young.  :)
 We love fall snuggles! Coco is such a patient pillow!
 Fun play dates with friends! Emilia cries when he leaves!
 We went off roading in daddy's truck.  It was quite the bumpy ride!
 Emilia helped pull out all the bins of baby clothes so we can get organized for the baby!
 When the weather is nice, we are still doing our walks around the park!
What a busy & fun month we had! I love sharing my pictures and stories with you!

 Beans has the best seat in the car on rides!
 Emilia is my dress up girl.  Bracelets and necklaces galore!
 Wiping baby's face. She's gonna be a great big sister!
 Camping spot for labor day weekend!
 My big girl!
 She is ready for hair and makeup from the mom studio!
 We had family in town this summer for my brother Jonathan's wedding.  Grandmom spent time reading with Emilia.
 Ben thinks highly of our baby girl and she thinks highly of him! I love these two together!
 They went off fishing!
 And caught one, three by the end of the weekend!
 Here we are at the wedding reception.
 Emilia loves dresses.
 Hammock snuggles with daddy!
 This girl keeps on going. Heels are a must for today's outfit.
 Outside play time with the hose.
 Isaac's birthday party!
 4th of July fun!
 We sold our big camper and bought a smaller version.  Its better for us too! We enjoyed it this weekend!
 4 generation picture of 4 oldest girls.  My Emilia is the oldest kid, I am the oldest kid, my mom is the oldest kid in her family and so is my grandma! We are 4 of a kind! :)
 Me and Emilia staying warm by the fire.
 Emilia got really tired after the wedding. She laid down and I took a quick picture, we picked her up and took her home.
 Big girl in a box.
 My 2 favorite people in this picture!
 Family night at the Bee's game! We are a bunch of sillies. :)
" Girl in ottoman with brush." That would be the title of this picture.
 First lollipop.
 Necklaces times a million.  Good thing I keep a lot of play jewelry around.
 Spending time with Aunt Olivia.
 My cute girl chilling with a bear.
 Water and chair.  She is so grown up!
 Up and down and up and down, the stairs are her thing lately.  She is so good at them and so fast I can hardly keep up!
 Stickers. We are really loving stickers lately (minus the eating of them).
 She cant wait to drive daddy's truck!
 Splashing away at the water table on these last warm summer days!
What a busy summer, slow pregnancy (I'm 25 weeks today), and yet my how fast Emilia has grown up (especially these last 3 months)! She communicates so well and so much.  She is such a calm, happy, and sweet girl! We love her to pieces!
