More camping pics?

for some reason it's like my blog can only handle so many pictures without deleting other ones?

here are a couple more gooder camping pics.

spending some time with Auntie Emily

Blakes Speedo upon her head.

she's pretty cute

Her new face? she does this every 5 minutes now.

Blake and I love to camp! so if you need some camping buddies ever! you know who to call!!

Camping!

Every year my family (cousins and all) go camping at Kimball lake for 2 weeks. All they do it sit by the lake, swim, and read, and eat ice cream from the shop. It's wonderful. Maybe sometime I'll be able to go the full 2 weeks again... but until then.... we'll just go for a couple nights... which is all I really needed with Lucy pants and all. It's hard to think of camping food for a little babe.... cause if it was just blake and I, all we would eat are HOT DOGS! but seeing as how I am responsible for her health I had to switch it up a bit.... other than worrying about food, there was nothing else to worry about. Lucy was the perfect camper!

Lucy's favorite pastime at the lake... eating the sand

Trying to steel some ones snacks. I'm pretty sure she succeeded

Summer Fun

It's starting to feel like fall, and that's OK !.... I love summer and am sad to see it so quickly departing. Today on this wonderful blog, I'm mostly posting up pictures of the Olsen /Olson? I forget :) family reunion (blakes side) in Mountain View,where we all stayed at Payne Lake lodge, which I absolutely Loved! I absolutely love Mountain View and Waterton and so my heart was reunited once again with the piece it left behind (since a pice of my heart resides in waterton all year round). So you can imagine how Happy I was to bring Lucy up the Ol Bears Hump! her first of many I hope. Just look at em pics!

Lucy and Blake getting ready to climb!

Climbing! (blake is sooo stong, one of the reasons I married him of course)

If only Lucy knew ho

w cool she was at the moment! hopefully she will understand how awesome and magical Waterton is someday....

and of course we have to cruise the town while we are there!

can I just say how much I love this little Umbrella stroller? it fit's everywhere, it's a feather weight... Lucy loves being so close to the ground close to all the action.. she could stay in there for HOURS! and she did!

where did my baby go?

Lucy is 11 months old..... WHAT?? she'll be a year next month? WHAT?? Time fly's when you're having fun right? I guess it's time to have another one? hmmm we'll have to think about this one. Back to lucy.. she is becoming quite the character! I wish everyone could see what a day in the life of watching Lucy is all about. I guess that's what I get for marrying Blake. I should have known that a Stef and Blake combo would be out of control .....my poor poor offspring. Here is a list of Lucy CAN DO's

Lucy can Sing.. sometimes too loud and at all the wrong times

Lucy can Dance.... definitely to the beat of her own drum, but it's dancing just the same

Lucy can crawl..... much tooo fast .. she's just GO GO GO! who wants to nap?? not Lucy

Lucy can wiggle.....she does this weird back and forth wiggle thing when she's happy. I love it.

Lucy can click her tongue

Lucy can drink juice from her juice box

Lucy can eat..... she loves anything you stick in front of her ... she'll try and take it out of my mouth sometimes

Lucy can say "baba" in a high pitched girly voice over and over and over again.......

Lucy can hug her baby

Lucy can wave Bye Bye , she thinks she's the Queen

Lucy can do much much more!... and learning something new everyday.

I just love her. She's Beautiful!

Tooth!!

Lucy has her first tooth! I couldn't be more proud!! Tuesday night she woke up, and usually I can put her back to sleep pretty quickly after I feed her... but not this time!! I felt so bad for her. She just screamed and screamed for an hour and a half until either the tylenol clicked in or she was just so exhausted?? who knows.. all I know is that when she woke up in the morning she had a little tooth! My baby is growing up!!!

also... on a much more not so good note.. I think she's allergic to milk..... BOOO! whenever I give her yogurt she gets little hives around her mouth.... I also shared my dilly bar with her last week, and wherever the ice cream touched her face she got hives.... WHAT DO I DOOO???? I was panning on fading out the ol breast milk in a couple of weeks with Homo..... oh well... I still love her guts!

Easter dress

For Easter this year I decided that I wanted to attempt an Easter dress of some sort for Lucy. I always tell myself that I'll sew things.... but I never do... cause really I don't really think of myself as a sewer or seamstress of any kind, because really all I know how to do is a hem or straight lines..... which is why this dress was perfect!!! I went online and found a simple dress pattern called a pillow case dress (lots of room for creative anything) it is the EASIEST dress pattern ever. I didn't even need to ask for help once. I'm VERY proud of myself. Mostly I'm just happy that I finished it, and that it fit...but not for long, it's on the smallish side.. but it served it's purpose. EASTER!!!

Lucy with her cousin Charlotte hanging out on the couch.

Lucy loving herself in the mirror..... can you blame her??

(p.s. she is awesome at sitting on her own... sooo grown up)

I don't know how to put pictures in between what I'm writing after i've already written everything... for some reason they always want to go to the top of the page... and I am not smart enough to figure out how to move them... so here are a few pics of our trip!
