Sitting at the Big Table

Lately Takara has not been wanting to sit in her high chair, so today instead of fighting her, I decided to let her sit at the table with us using a booster chair. Just thought I share one of her big girl pictures. I can't believe how big she is getting. It is wonderful that she is understanding the things I say to her and can do what I ask of her. So fun to see them learning and growing.

Cheese & Green Beans

I was doing dishes the other day and Takara was eating a piece of cheese while I did. Well, I looked over to see how she was doing and she had stuck pieces of cheese to the pantry door. Why, I don't know, but as I got my camera out, she started eating the pieces off the door. Where do they come up with this stuff? As for green beans, she used to love green beans, and then recently she didn't seem to do anything with them but squish them up. The other day I was watching her with them, and she actually doesn't just squish them up. She carefully opens each one and eats the little seed pods out of it and then places the main part of the bean to the side. How did she even figure out she could open them and that there was a seed pod inside? Again, who knows!

Always Watching

This just goes to show you how much kids are watching those around them. Takara was taking very good care of her dog as she carefully placed him in the carseat and then rocked him while quietly saying, "Shhhhh". I got such a kick out of watching her.

Draper Temple Open House

We finally made it to the Draper Temple Open House on the last day. It was a great outing, and I was so glad we were able to make it. Here is the family at the Chapel afterwards for treats. Of course Takara loved the cookies.

Happy Mommy!

Well after what was Brigham's worst night's sleep, we had his best night's sleep last night. He went to bed at 8:45 pm and didn't wake up until 5:00 am. Now, I don't expect this to be the norm yet, but boy, was it nice to sleep through the night! I am definitely a happy mommy today :)
