August
We go to a Doobie Brothers'/Boston concert, celebrate a birthday and eagerly wait for baby's arrival (at the time we didn't know if we were having a boy or girl!)
^^
yes, I did third wheel it with my mom and dad to a Doobie Brothers' concert, not ashamed.
^^
Jess was there on a date but came over and we took a shameless Doobie shelfie
^^
for my birthday we went to a free climbing competition in park city with my family
^^
we packed up for the hospital and met the girl of our dreams little Daphne Elizabeth (those lips though)
Let me also mention how unprepared I was for the hospital, live and learn, right? Let's just say that it took me a good day to brush through my knotted crazy hair because I forgot a hair brush.
^^
we went to Bear Lake (Daphne's first official trip) for Labor Day and went on the most beautiful hike on Grandpa Fred's birthday
September
We celebrate my mom's 50th birthday with a killer surprise party.
^^
Surprise! Mom was so surprised it was fun to have everyone there and even better my Grandma and aunts and uncle flew in from California
^^
Daphne goes to her first movie Guardians of the Galaxy, of course she loves it

November
^^
we enjoyed the fall weather and went on some fabulous walks
^^
we got our first photographed smiles, she really made us work for these. And then the bottom 2 are just typical D faces, serious and sleeping.
^^
I went back to work, just part time and so did Daphne....ok so we didn't make her work but this picture is just too funny
^^
D enjoying her first thanksgiving with Papa
^^
my first successful pie. I don't usually like to toot my own horn but it was caramel apple and it was amazing
^^
Thanksgiving was also Isaac's birthday! We celebrated with his favorite mint chocolate cake

my favorite goofballs
Thank goodness for this wonderful family of mine, having a baby has been the hardest yet best thing that has happened to Isaac and I and we couldn't be happier.
