Since I last wrote.....

Henry got his first haircut.
He ate a lot of food. He's now in the 40th percentile.
He turned 9 months.
He reaches out for everything. He gives a good fistbump too. 
Sarah earned her umbrella.
She can make this weird sound with her mouth.
And she fell asleep on this chair.  She never falls asleep anywhere weird. Naptime has been dead since Christmas but sometimes we have a 5 o'clock crash when she can't quite make it.
Big baby Sarah.

We went to St. George to visit my parents and my sister and her family. During our trip Sarah cried that she wanted to go home, that she didn't want to go home ever, that she wanted to go home and sleep in her own bed and on the drive home she stated she was never going to St. George again.

Sarah asked my mom if she had a boat. Through a long and confusing conversation, Sarah finally understood that my grandpa had a boat but when he died, my grandma sold it.  Through a completely different conversation, Sarah learned that my grandma's name was Bardella.  Hours later, I heard Sarah singing, "Bardella, Bardella, Bardella sold the boat." Here's video I took when we got back.
I never knew about the boat or the selling of it before this trip and yet this is the only thing Sarah knows about my grandma.

Brooke and Sarah are just a couple of months apart.  They play so cute together.
Zion National Park. Justin won't let me call it Zion's like everyone else does. Okay I still do because asking me to say the full name all the time is unreasonable.  And you can't just say Zion.
Taking picture of deer.


I don't know what this pose is.

 Sarah got a postcard of a baby bobcat and couldn't be happier.
 Sarah loves to eat snow. She tastes it everywhere we go.
 I don't remember why I took this picture. Probably because she's cute.

Not a pumpkin, just a girl.

Sarah was brushing my hair for me today and she was asking about my hair when I was little. Then she said this:

Sarah: When I'm big I will have a little girl.

Me: What will her name be?

Sarah: {Thinking hard} I can't remember.

Me:  Diana is a good name.

Sarah: No not Diana! {Thinking hard again} Punna. Like a pumpkin. But she's not a pumpkin, just a girl.
