I Need to Update More.

We put it in the same spot that the two love seats were at, but we’re planning to switch the furniture around and have the TV on the opposite wall so we can have the couch at a better angle. It’s a sectional with chaise and instead of having the chaise on the wall, we want that sticking out in the open. We’re also planning on getting another section to have it fit more people.

Anyway, Zoe and Ruthie are doing well. We’ve sort of started Zoe on potty training, but she likes to play in the bathroom, so our effort isn’t as diligent as it could be. She also stuck the seat on her head and got it stuck so… I don’t know how serious she actually is about learning how to use the potty.

Ruthie just hit her 6 month mark this past Saturday, and it’s so sweet! She’s growing so fast, and it’s awesome. She’s got a cute little personality, but if she’s tired she gets MAD. We also finally got her out of our bed and into her crib, which was surprisingly an easy transition. Zoe disliked it and we had many nights of her crying and screaming before she got used to the idea. I think Ruthie likes to roll around in her crib without bumping into people. She will also scoot if she’s in the right mood too. I can’t really call it crawling because she’s not really doing it with the intent of moving from one place to another. We won’t know how big she is until her appointment later on this month. I think it was supposed to be sometime this week, but something happened, and my pediatrician had to go out of town.

We were able to watch fireworks two days in a row, both on the third and the fourth of July. Anyway, this I think is my favorite picture that was taken this year. My inlaws live up higher in the Salt Lake valley and this is a picture of two different fireworks shows going on at once. I didn’t see this picture until I was going through my pictures on the computer and saw this. I must have captured it at a very precise moment, because it looks like a Supernova or something. I love it.

Then, on July 19th, we went to the COOLEST thing on earth: LLAMA FEST!!! I heard about it in 2004, and I’ve wanted to go every year since then, but we weren’t able to make time to go until this year. It’s so awesome! It’s held down in Spanish Fork which is in the southern part of Utah Valley, past Provo. We didn’t realize how big it actually is until we went.
