Memorial Day Bonnet

Ever since Sawyer was 8 weeks old she has been a fish. Any chance that she gets to play in or with water, she takes. It is so fun to put on a little Ruffle Butt bikini (http://www.rufflebutts.com/) on Sawyer and watch her enjoy the water. On Memorial Day we spent time at my mom's house with my family. If you know my mom, you know that she keeps everything! Seriously, everything! She isn't a hoarder, but she keeps things with great sentamently value. Example being this...

This is a picture of Sawyer in her oh so cute bikini, but on her head is a bonnet from when I was a baby. Yes 26 years ago! We didn't have a hat for Sawyer at the house, so my mom dug through a box like Mary Poppins and whipped out this bonnet. It was too small for Sawyer's normal sized head but we worked it on anyhow. It served it purpose and was funny at the same time. Thanks mom!

Family and Friends

We have been so busy lately spending blessed time with family and friends. Here is a photo recap of our last couple weeks.

..these are a few of her favorite things..

Sawyer has become fond of a couple activities lately. A couple post ago we shared the peek-a-poo video which is one of Sawyer's favorites. Her is another of her favorite activities lately.

Can you believe that! We spent about two weeks trying to teach her not to climb on the oven, but we finally caved in because she loves doing it.

Last week while we are at the Gutierrez's house, Lisa had Sawyer with her while she was doing laundry. Now,if you know Sawyer, you know that there is nothing that she won't put in her mouth. Everything from dirt to paper has been digested in her little body. While Sawyer was helping Lisa with her laundry Lisa caught sawyer bitting the rubber liner of the dryer!

Sawyer is so stinkin' cute! With that face she can chew on anything!

..10 months old..

On Saturday Sawyer hit the 10 month mark. She started to explore the world of walking when she was 9 months old but now walking is her transportation of choice. Crawling only happens when she takes a spill. I was doing some spring cleaning this past weekend and came across a bin in Sawyer's closet labeled "3 months". I started pulling out all the outfits that she no longer fits into and reflecting on the last 10 months...

3 months

2 months

Towards the end of the bin I found the only outfit that Sawyer was able to wear that fist 2 weeks of her little life. It is so hard to remember how small she really was. Yesterday, Sunday we celebrated a friends birthday and Sawyer wore a new pink dress. I couldn't help but compare what she wore then and what she can wear now.

Peek-a-boo...

Sawyer's fun little personality continues to unfold. She has discovered how to play peek-a-boo! She was having a blast the other day while our friend Gaby was over.

Sawyers Steps

Last night at our small group Bible study Sawyer took a couple steps! Ive been trying all morning to get them on camera. Here is a clip of her taking a few steps. We are excited that she is starting to walk, but also know that we are in for it now.

Brad, Sawyer and I decided to take a trip down to San Diego this past weekend. We took the train down which was relaxing. Sawyer was a champ the whole ride down. As most of you know Brad works out 5 days a week and is quite fit. He decided to get Sawyer started early in her physical development on our train ride down.



Our weekend we spent relaxing with Brad's family, shopping, eating great food and watching the close of the Olympic games. Sawyer was all smiles in the arms of Steve, Malia, Lyssie and Grandma Ruth. We wish that we could spend more time visiting but we are very thankful for the time that we had this weekend.
