Hiking, Glassing and Sleeping. Oh my!

As you can see, after a long wait and much needed break. We sported our hiking boots and headed for the mountain for Labor day weekend. My sister graciously took our little one into her home for two nights and we spent some quality time together doing the things we love most.



We also spent some time looking for bulls and saw quite a few. Kyle is actually currently out there with his nephew helping him with his elk hunt. Hopefully they can come home successful. Here we are checking out a few bulls.




Not a monster but a nice looking bull that we got real close too.




I forgot to take a picture of our brand new tent that is huge and incredibly nice. Not to mention all the sleep I got this weekend, not having to get up a couple times throughout the night. We even got in a nap or two during the afternoons. I love sleep. Though I will admit that at seven weeks our little Taytum started sleeping through the night. On average she has been sleeping from 9:00 p.m to 5:30 a.m. I can live with that.

Taytum Update

Wow! Taytum looks so little here. I guess this would be considered our first family picture. As I was looking back at our pictures, I realized that Kyle and I were never in any of the photos together except for this one taken a couple of weeks ago.



This was Taytum's first time going to church. She wasn't being very cooperative so this is all we got. She is so cute in her polka dotted dress.



Compared to her last bath picture, she is now enjoying her bath a lot more. We have since moved on to a little tub instead of the sink but bath time is much more enjoyable these days.


And here is our little Tayters smiling and cooing. She is getting to be so talkative and I just love it when she talks and smiles at me when I walk in the room. I still can't believe how fast and big she is getting. I love the way she stretches when she's waking up and the way she always sneezes four or five times in a row. I love to kiss her cheeks that are filling out quickly and the way her eyes gets so big when her dad tries to eat her. I was lucky and had my camera ready and I just love this picture of her.
