August 2015!

August 2nd: 

Sundays are always wiping us out. We hang out with all our family!

When we got home from visiting everyone. I realized that my ring seemed scratchy.

I looked down and I had lost a diamond and the prong totally was gone too. 

That was the sharp part that I was feeling. This is the first diamond I have lost. Thank goodness for lifetime warranties. 

Its the small black looking hole at the top left. 

August 4th: We hung out with miss Katey! She just had her tonsils out and I miss my katey. 

We had a great conversation! I seriously snap chat this girl on the daily!

After bath selfies. This is the only time I can burrito this baby up anymore. 

I miss the cuddly stage. 

One of Charli's cousins found this baby bottle and gave it to Charli.

Charli really started sucking on it and was mad when nothing came out. 

August 7th:

Sister Sister... Give me the news! 

Yes the Malone sisters were back. Kelsey came into town to visit. It was so fun having her here and we did so much together! I wish we could convince her to move to utah! 

As we were out shopping at Station Park with my parents, sisters, and nieces and nephews. 

We stopped and ate at Johnny Rockets. Yum. 

Well Charli thought Grandma's fries looked good and grabbed one. 

She loved it until she started to gag. Sorry you don't have teeth yet Char.

Jamicure.. I love the daisy print and country club together! 

It lasted for 12 days! Yay!

August 8th: 

Mr & Mrs Kessler got married. 

I was lucky enough to drive down and be there for pictures and hang out with all the good old hooper friends. I miss these ladies. It was so fun walking around City Creek with them. We helped each other pick out outfits and just laugh. 

I was also lucky enough to do Jessie's Wedding Video. It was a lot of fun and I really enjoy putting those together. It shows so much personality of the couples! 

After the wedding we took the good old Seaswirl out with our friends to Willard Bay. 

And YES! That is me! I finally got up on the wake board. Go me! 

This was a perfect picture. It was the first time I got up. 

I tried it a few more times and then stopped after I face planted.. super hard. 

 Mid fall... 

When I came up I thought I lost my teeth. My face hurt so bad. 

We also have a great video of it! 

August 9th:

Sleeping in Relief Society. 

We bring the carseat in for moments like this. Sometimes its the only way to get her to take a nap.

Dinner at my parents with all the family. Man we are a big family. 

It was fun to have Grandma & Grandpa West there. 

Plus its always a bonus when you match your grandpa!

August 9th:

Cabbage Patch Charli!

At Grandma & Grandpa Nelson's. We were helping out in the garden and then this happened. 

We have always joked about Charli being a Cabbage Patch Kid. 

It was better off as a saying. She hated sitting in the leaves!

August 10th:

I got my ring back. It was so sparkly! :) 

August 12th:

We hung out in Kaysville with Auntie M, Kelsey and Grandma Malone.

We were at Homegoods and I saw the board book version of Jimmy Fallon's children book.

I showed it to Charli and she instantly was opening it. 

We have the bigger version. She loves it! Like not because I say she should. 

If she sees it you better be reading it. 

August 12th:

Wednesday nights are our nights at Great Grandma Smiths. She loves to play with this piano. 

She pushes all the buttons and keys. She makes the sheet music turn pages. 

I also bought and tried out this new CRUDE Personal Care. It is a oil cleansing method. 

I know its crazy because how can you help your acne by putting more oil on your face. But really I have loved this product. It works so much better than any other acne product I have used before. 

It takes my makeup off and it is great at treating blemishes overnight. 

August 13th:

I took my two kids shopping. 

Waffle Love and Target. What could be wrong? 

Oops. Don't forget we also went to Chipotle. 

It was a good day. 

Remember what I said about Jimmy Fallon? 

We love him and so does Charli! 

August 15th:

Cabin Time!

We had everyone up at the cabin. Don't you think this such a cool picture. 

Marci did some serious work to try and get my phone propped just right to take it. 

If you know anything about my family. You know that this is the place that all family pictures are taken at the Cabin. 

It was a fun time with games, four wheeling and lots of food.

August 18th:

I went to the eye doctor and was told after they dilated my eyes that I need to have someone come get me. I guess I shouldn't have been driving. But I really like these glasses that I picked from Costco.

They were cheap and I really love the selection that Costco has! 

August 19th:

Charli's nine month appointment. It was a long wait. But Kelly added some humor to it by dumping all the formula in the diaper bag out on the floor. 

Yay for not having to get shots!

August 20th:

But first let me take a selfie. 

Charli loves playing with our phones. She gets a kick out of looking at pictures of herself. 

August 21st: 

Remember that day we spent over 12 hours at the Apple Store and drank 2 Fiiz drinks. 

I wish I didn't remember that day. But at least I was there to give my mom company as we waited for her computer to transfer over to an external hard drive. We were there from 11am to 10pm. 

August 23rd:

Yes we both wear pineapples because we are cool!

August 23rd:

Saying goodnight to Grandma Smith. Charli loves going to Grandma's. 

We love seeing grandma as well!

August 24th:

Doing some Costco shopping with Grandma Malone. 

We graduated and can sit in the cart without a carseat. 

It's really cool.

August 24th:

Dance Studio Rat's.

We got together with Lisa & Alexa to go over some choreography and song ideas. 

It was a fun night. 

August 25th: 

Mom relaxation happens at midnight and it begins with a LUSH bath bomb and a bubble bath. 

Watching the Bachelor in Paradise on the iPad. 

August 26th:

Coaches who take selfies stay cool together. 

Yes we are all wearing Beatles shirts.

Woot. Can't wait for this next year. We started some awesome routines.

August 26th:

Tulle, flowers, and pink bows. It can't get any better in the PJ department.

August 28th:

It can't get any better than one last swim party with our cousins.

Yes she has a good sunscreen mohawk going on. 

After we went swimming Kelly helped me set up for a Visiting Teaching Interview breakfast the next morning. We did a Waffle bar and had a great time with the ladies in our ward. It was a lot of work but I love Waffles so who cares. We got dinner at our favorite Costa Vida and watched some Netflix.

August 29th:

We ended summer right with going to Farr's Ice Cream with my parents.

It was a fun night. And yes I got Play Dough. It's the best ice cream as far as I am concerned.
