Big Girl Car Seat



Celeste: "I got too tall for my old car seat, so I got a new one. It's pink! I have to be rear-facing for 3 more months, then after that I'll finally know where we are going."




Celeste: "Mommy tried to put clips in my hair. I think she'll get better with practice."


Celeste: "Daddy makes me laugh. He is so funny!"

Celeste: "It looks like I'm standing by myself in this one, but I'm actually holding on to the couch."

Weekend in Utah


"Look at all my beautiful chompers!" "I'm a piranha!"

Celeste & Grammy & I had fun at Amy's baby shower. Two of our friends from college were there. (Amy and I went to NMSU.) We had a great time reminissing. We had a slumber party at Mandy's. We also got to see the Cummins family. We had the two babies who are close in age have a crawling race. We set a lap top on the floor for them to crawl to. They both love electronics. Celeste is a very fast crawler; however, she was more interested in the people in the room, and lost every race. See Katrina's blog for video.

Celeste and Jackson are wearing matching Thomas the Train outfits for the train ride that Grammy took us all on. The historic "Heber Creeper" was fun, especially for the babies.






This is Celeste clapping at the band concert the weekend before.

Celeste's First Campout

We went camping and fishing at Meadow Lake near Leadore, ID. It was Celeste's first time camping. Meadow Lake Campground was full, so we found a secluded spot 2 miles down the road, and 2,000 ft lower in elevation. We slept the 1st half of the night was in the tent. The 2nd half was in the car where we could run the heater. Scott stayed in the tent all night. He caught some rainbows that we brought home, and my mom cooked them. Yummy. We went hiking with a couple that we met up there. Celeste is very good at removing any hat placed on her head, even the kind with an elastic strap. We didn't see much wildlife other than cutthroat trout. Maybe next time we'll see the mountain goats that live in the rocks.

"Ohhhh! It's so pretty here!"


"Daddy, I'm reeling in a big one!"


The lake was formed by glaciers.

Last time we were here this was covered with ice.

"Yippee! We're finally here!"


"Fishing is serious stuff."


"Mommy, just put me down so I can taste some of those rocks."



"Let's go camping again!"
