mmm.... tasty paper

Molly has learned how to suck on things and loves to do it all the time. By the end of church my tie, shoulder, and knees are usually soaked with slobber, drenched in barf, or just plain nasty! By the way, I get slobber on my knees from when I hold her face down and pat her on the back. Anyway, she was working on my tie today when she got distracted by the green rectangular subject of interest that Sara was holding (also known as an LDS hymnal). Molly then threw down my tie and turned to the hymnal with great anticipation. She reached for it many many times and started drooling over it like applesauce! Needless to say I was somewhat confused as we have never fed her paper... or hymnals... or anything of the sort although the events of today may change our future plans. We managed to persuade her to fast from the hymnal for the day. I just hope that she doesn't start craving books and paper instead of formula and applesauce!

Is That Rice Cereal?

So I am (Sara) starting to get a little obsessed with updatingthe blog. Its just so fun to show off pictures and have a place to update everyone on the little happenings of our lives.

So here are a few of the updates:

1. Molly has started eating rice cereal and she is already a pro. Its so fun to feed her but she really does best when Fred is feeding her because he always makes the best faces and she just laughs and laughs as well as eats and eats. This pic is right after she took a big bite of food and then had a really big sneeze.

2. We are starting to get the hang of camping and every time we go we learn something new which usually involved us purchasing something new. Example: this last camping trip we realized that we needed a heater so Molly and Mom wouldn't be so cold at night (mostly MOM).
Here are a couple fun pics from our last adventure.
LOVE LOVE LOVE those cubby cheeks!

This is our way of calming Molly down when she is fussy for no reason and believe it or not it works like a charm.

Everyone always tells me that Molly looks so much like Fred and this picture is just more proof of that statement.

And here at the end of the post is a cute pic of Molly is my favorite dress.

Summer fun

So summer is starting to slow down and school is approaching, me and Fred have been sending lots of our time outside soaking up every last minute of it. We went to my family's cabin this weekend and had a blast. Its still has one of the most beautiful views I have ever seen:

Fred is also getting pretty excited about our sunflower. Its over 9 feet now and still growing!

We also put up Molly's crib for the first time on saturday. Before we were using a bassinet and decided she was old enough for the beautiful crib we bought when I was 7 mos pregnant. We were really excited to see it put together finally.

Its a little big right now for Molly but she does enjoy having room to spread out.

And of course it wouldn't be a complete post by Sara if I didnt add the latest cute pic of Molly:
