We went to Lake Powell last week. Eric's parents have a time share on a house boat there. It was perfect weather and not really crowded. The kids loved it. We loved it. We can't wait to go again next summer!
My view for 8 hours on the drive there...
A last minute stop to see my brother and his family. They were in Green River for a family reunion. Logan & Berkeley loved seeing each other!!!
Stella, our little bathing beauty...
Hiking the crack...
Stella in the water. She once again hated her life jacket, but the second we put her in the water in her floaty she was in heaven!!!
Logan on the boat...
Until next time Lake Powell!

Monterey
We went to Monterey so Eric could participate in the Pacific Grove Triathalon. The kids and I, of course, had to tag along! My Dad, Mom and sister met us there for the weekend. It was beautiful and sunny the entire time we were there. It was perfect!
We stopped in San Francisco before heading to Monterey for a little Nick's Crispy Tacos; it didn't disappoint...
The first afternoon; we just had to go check out the ocean/beach...
With Daddy after his triathlon!
Monterey Bay Aquarium - you can't come to Monterey with kids and not go here! The kids loved it!
Yummy Breakfast in the morning...
The start of our bike ride around Monterey...
Denise the Menace Park...
Stella loved the sand!
It was such a good time; only wished we were there longer!!!

Stella at 8 Months
Our sweet baby girl turned 8 months; time just keeps flying by! Anyone else think it goes by way too fast with your second?
Stella weighs around 21.5 pounds now. I had to finally give in and switch her carseat to the convertible one. It fits her way better than her infant one did. She is sitting up like such a big girl now; I have even caught her a few times tipping over to reach stuff, but still no scooting. She is proving to be a late crawler, just like her brother - which is fine by me!
She is still nursing and eating two meals a day. She will pretty much eat anything we put in front of her face. We did start some dairy this past month, though, and she is NOT a fan of cottage cheese, but yogurt she loved!
She loves her big brother and starts squealing the minute he walks into a room. She still loves the water and being outside. She grabs for everything now and you have to watch what is in her reach!
She is still sleeping like a champ. I started wrapping her with her arms out all the time - she can put in her own binky in and will even play with her toys as she puts herself to sleep; it is heavenly!
She continues to babble all the time. She has even started saying Mama which Eric is very jealous of :)
Stella also got her first two teeth this past month. The first one was easy, breezy but the second turned her into a needy, whiny baby for over a week and she was nursing terribly - so glad that is over, but am hoping it is not like that with the rest of her teeth :(
We love you Miss Stella! We seriously can't stop kissing your scrumptious cheeks and squeezing your squishy rolls! Happy 8 Months!!!!
Loves the pool- especially now that she can sit up big by herself and play...
HATED the life jacket on the boat; I seriously couldn't get her to crack a smile...
Bath time at Grammy's...
Yummy Cafe Rio beans...
Joining Mommy for Yoga...
Just enjoying a banana muffin...
Love me some clean baby...
She couldn't get enough of herself in this dressing room mirror...
Loving Daddy's milk...
Not such a big fan of the cottage cheese...
A little video of Stella laughing/squealing at Logan...
