I'm back!

I realize it has been a while, but cut me some slack, I just had a baby. My beautiful bouncing baby girl has decided that she will only sleep and/or be content by being held. Needless to say, it is a little hard to blog holding a baby in my arms. But I have managed to steal a couple minutes today to try to post. This may be the longest blog ever due to the extended time frame I am covering.

Here's some highlights since she as born:

We went to Lake Chelan a couple days after we got home from the hospital. I know it sounds crazy but I was doing house work and laundry at home so I thought it would be more relaxing to go away.





Jake's kids were in town for about 4 weeks. The kids spent lots of time together.


L-R: Dion (holding Kamri), Jaron, Genoa, Tayson

What is summer time without hanging out at the pool and river?? We continue to spend lots of time at Libby's pool. We have also gone out the the river with Papa Bob's new boat (although Kamri and I stay on shore).

Here is Kamri and Lila Fairchild, lounging at the pool. Lila is 3 months older than Kamri. (Sorry the picture is turned sideways - I still maintain that I am blogger illiteriate)

We had to get Kamri a straw hat to match Bryce and Tayson's. It's a little big. I'm sure it will fit next year too!

Back from boating with Gramma and Grampa.



For the 3rd of July we went over to Randy Johnson's house for fun by the pool and a little pre-4th of July celebration. Tayson found out that he will sink to the bottom of the pool without his life jacket on.



Signing off for now, but I will try to keep up on my blog from now on as I recently discovered a few tricks to keeping her asleep without constantly holding her. Among them, the Papasan swing (when it is working), tight swadling, and passing her off to someone else. Here's one last cute picture of Kamri in her Sunday best!
