Visting Tonya

Mom, Mya, and I went to visit Tonya for the weekend. We saw some sites, went shopping, watched movies, and of course chatted. Oh and I must thank my wonderful husband for letting me go. While I was gone he raked the leaves, got the yard ready for summer, cleaned the garage and steam cleaned our carpets. What a great guy!

Mya really liked looking out the windows of the airplane and was a very good flier.

We made it Georgia...nice and warm!

Friday morning we ended up at the hospital. Mya had a fever of 104.6 and we found out she has pneumonia (she has had a double ear infection since March 28 and they are still infected!). So after getting another prescription we headed over to Sonics...it just happened to be Happy Hour.

We then made our way over to Tallulah Gorge. It was very beautiful.



Mya again had a very high fever in the middle of the night so at 2:30 a.m. we gave her some Motrin...unfortunatly it gave her a buzz and she didn't fall back to sleep until 9. So we all took turns watching her...Thanks mom and Tonya!

Of course we had to make a trip to the falls. Mya enjoyed playing with the rocks.




Mya had some last minute business to get done before getting on the plane. What a fun and relaxing weekend!

Last Two Months

So I finally figured out how to get this to work again so you get two months of pictures.

We decorated these cookies for the Womens Brunch at Church.

Mya really liked her first french fries!


I don't think Mya like the hat as much as her daddy does.

Crawling up the stairs is her new favorite thing to do :)


Celebrating Elise's Birthday

Mya enjoyed the red peppers


Mya and Elijah are best buds



Enjoying her first real banana.

Missouri

On Friday we left early in the morning to go down to Roach, Missouri to visit Dylan, Angie, and Raquel. Derek, Mya, and I stopped at the Arch on the way down. Mom, Lydia, Nathan, Jenna, and Elise also came down for the weekend.


Reading time

Of course we had to play some Liverpool Rummy. I won both games:)

We also went to a Mennonite town and saw horse and buggies in use.

Mom and I relaxing at the General store after a day of shopping.

Sunday morning before church we went and saw the castle that burned down at Ha Ha Tonka.

Grandpa was sad that he couldn't come down so he treated us all to supper at Applebee's.

Angie and I found some great deals at the Children's Place so we bought Mya and Raquel matching dresses. It is really hard to get an 8 month old and 21 month old to sit still, look, and smile for a picture... here are some attempts of about 50 pictures.

New furniture and of course more pictures of Mya...
