Pool Day

Granola had such a great time at the pool this day. She just laughed and splashed the entire time. She was even dunking her face in the water a bunch. I think she was getting some drinks.

New Park

The county added another park recently down by the library. We usually go to this one early in the morning after returning the previous nights entertainment.

Sleepover

Mom's cousins came up for a visit and Granola was able to have her first sleepover. Her cousin Kaley shared her room for the night. Unfortunately we didn't get any good pics.
The one picture of the girls together. Oh well.
The girls really wanted the ball pit in the living room but were unsuccessful.

Outdoor Toys

Mom just had to get Granola some outdoor toys. A small pool and jump-o-lene were the best available local selections. We are currently saving for a slide/ swing combo type thing for the babe.

Another New Chair

Mom had to, it was Handy Manny and on sale. And thanks to Grandma Gibson for the new outfits.

The Hidden Park

We randomly found this park tucked away deep in the woods outside of town. Granola took us on a nice hike through the forest, we needed to spin her around to get here to head back in the direction of the vehicle.

Here We Go

Are those...?.?. Yes.

At the Park

We've been getting a lot of time in at the local parks. Swinging and sliding seem to be the favorites.
It was actually really warm today.

July?

Obviously blogging has not been a priority lately. There haven't been that many pictures either. Not sure why. Granola has been enjoying the warmer weather and outdoors a lot this summer. She has picked up a handful of signs lately and the words too. Its been fun being able to communicate with her better. We'll work on getting some picture filled blogs up soon.
Working on her skate balance with a longboard.

Some More Firsts

Granola headed down to Buena Vista yesterday for a hike by the river and a soak in the hot springs. She soaked in the cooler pool with us and had a great time. A couple weeks ago Granola picked up on the bath sign and today she signed it herself and even said it along. We're so proud of her. We'll try to keep up on it and see if she can learn some more. Oh, Happy 4th to everyone, hope you all have a safe and fun holiday.

Pig Tails

Mom finally gave the babe a change of hairstyle.



She's been trying to use utensils lately.

Play Group

Granola went to play group again this past week. It was outdoors this time since the weather was nice.

Silky Smooth

She really enjoys her new silky strawberry Pj's. They're just hard getting up stairs in. She has started walking up the stairs instead of crawling now.

Playing With Dads Hat

Lots of playing around lately.

New Pj's

Playtime at the Park

After returning our movie this morning we headed over to the park. We needed to get some outdoor playtime in before the rain came. We were successful, Auggie was obedient and Granola had lots of fun.

Changing Seats

Granola has reached that point where she can turn around and face forward in the car. She seems to enjoy it, and its nice to see her face in the rearview. She had to give her seat the 50 point inspection before we could install it.

New Pj's and Car seat.
Looks ok in the back.
Straps work.
And she transitioned easily into her new seat.

Moving Mountains

Ok, maybe just coffee tables. Granola has shown some interest in moving the table lately. She really puts everything into it, and can move it around a lot. Very impressive for the weight ratio. That table is at least for times her weight.

Camp Chair

Mom had to buy the little one her first Princess camp chair. Granola only tipped it over once, cried for a couple seconds, and even sat still for some minutes.She likes her chair a lot.
