Sayla 18 months

Sayla is 18 months old and she is growing so fast, she is differently changing by the minute. I feel like she is growing up way faster that Makenna ever did. Sayla is a very funny little girl always smiling, laughing wanting to play some game. She is always happy when she dose gets mad give her 2 Min's and she is over it and then she is happy. Sayla loves her big sister, she is Makenna's little shadow always doing what ever Makenna is doing. I think this is why she is growing up so fast. Here are some of the things Sayla is doing!!!
Sayla loves the water, she is not afraid of any thing, she loves tubing be hide the boat, especially loves riding on the boat!!
Sayla spends the whole day yelling at Oak (our dog) to come to her!! She loves animals!!!
Sayla is talking like crazy, she is speaking about 50 words right now but every day she says a new word!!!
Sayla loves her Grandpa Ras, she calls for him every day!!!
Sayla loves her thumb, she sucks it all day long if she is sad or happy is dose not matter!!
Sayla loves to ride the horse this weekend we went up to scolfield and she cried and cried when we took her off the horse. It was pretty sad.
Sayla is the best little sleeper she goes to sleep any where, she takes a good nap every day and sleeps great at night.
Sayla plays well by her self she goes into the play room and just plays, she loves to have her toes nails painted she brings me the toe nail polish and sits down and says please, hands the polish to me. She love her baby's she spends most of the day dressing and undressing them, feeding them.
Sayla just started learning how to climb she pushes the stools to where she needs it to be and them climbs up there.
Sayla gives then best kiss and the tightest squeezes.
Sayla loves to be outside, every morning I open the back door and she spends the rest of the day going in and out.
Sayla loves to go to nursery she never cries or any thing.
Sayla loves to talk on the phone it dose not matter if it kinda looks like a phone it is put up to her ear and she is talking away.
When you asked her to say cheese she tilts her head and says cheese and pulls the biggest cheese face ever, she loves to pose for the camera.
She shrugs her shoulders, and it is so stinken cute!!
She loves sing and dance, when the music is turned on she goes crazy and shakes her little body throws her hands up in the air and runs around.
Since she has been little we have sang "OH Say Say OH Playmate come out and play with me," Well now she sings it all my her self and dose the hand actions to. It is pretty dang cute.
Sayla is so much fun to have in our home, every day I go into get her out of her crib and I just squeeze her so tight she makes me happy, we are so blessed to have her.

Lava Hot Springs

Lava hot spring Was one of the funnest place John and I have been this summer, we had a great time up in Idaho. The first day we got there it was a Thursday night, we just unpacked and got all settle with the kids. We of course stay up all night talking and laughing have a great time. We are so lucky and blessed to have such wonderful family friends that invited us to go with them and have fun!!! So the next day we woak up and the boys went golfing and us girls just hung out and got the kids ready to hit the pool. So around 11:oo in the morning we loaded up and headed to the pool. When we got there and I saw the platforms I was so excited to go and jump off of them so we unpacked are stuff got everything nice and ready to hang out at the pool we all headed up to jump of the platforms, left just say when I got up there it looked just alittle higher than it did on the ground. So Afton and I jumped together it was fun. I only bad thing was when I jumped I didn't straighten my leg all the way so I pulled a muscle that hurt the rest of the day.


Here we go!!!

Sayla loves just to float.

Makenna was going crazy from slide to slide to diving board she never stopped. We were there for 6 hours and finally we were getting ready to go and she was not ready at all. she was very bugged that we were leaving. I have to say I love having a fish for a daughter!!!

So that night we headed back to the cabin and had a big feast!!! This is everyone on the deck eating dinner. Look at the back ground it was beautiful where we stay. John and I were in heaven!!!

All the cute little girls in the bath tub getting all scrubbed up and ready for bed!!!

So after we put all the kids to bed Just the Adults went to the hot pots and it was lovely thanks to Jess and Mat who stayed back at the cabin with all the kids, We had fun just relaxing and enjoying the hot water!!

The Next day which was Saturday was the river day. We were so excited, we rented to two 4 man tubes for the day and started running the river. I have to say this was by far the funnest thing ever. Makenna and Sayla loved it. So here we are just getting ready to run the river for the first time, we have no children aboard because we need to make sure it was safe!!!

We are approaching the drop off and we are alittle scared if you look at all of our faces!!! We are stuck on a rock and we are trying to get free but want to stay to the left so we don't tip the tube!!

We are free and no we are in for it!!!

Almost done!!

We are covered by water and then we would just pop right out!!! We had so much fun!!

So went down the river multiple times all of us taking turns it was a blast, there were rapis through out the entire river run, the river run was about 1 mile long and then we would have runners sitting at the bottom who would pick us up and then we would do it again!!!

I love this picture because I have both of my kids on with John and I and you can not even see them!!

Makenna and Sayla loved it!!! Makenna never stop going down the river!!

Lava Hot Springs was alot of fun we had a great time being together as a family.
