Well our little Maya is growing up to fast! I took her to the Dr. for her 6 month check up and she now ways 16lbs 8oz and is 25in long. As you can see she loves solid foods! Her favorite is mom's homemade plumsauce. Starting her on solid foods has eliminated almost all of her acid reflux. (Yeah!)
We spent last weekend in Provo with Nate's family for Rachel and Scott's reception. We had a ton of fun and loved spending time with family that we don't get to see very often.
And thanks to Grandma Tracy's hard work, Jensen and Maya got beautiful new "Princess" dresses(that's what Jensen calls them). She loves wearing it to play dress up!
Last month we also celebrated Jensen's 2nd birthday. As to her request, I made a mickey mouse cake. It took 3 cake mixes and 4 containers of funfetti frosting. Mickey's head was a 12" round and the ears were 8" rounds. After everyone left we still had an ear leftover.
Jensen's favorite birthday present(according to her Daddy) was the basketball hoop he got her. She loves to climb up on the sofa and dunk it! Nate say's she going to be his shooting guard and will be able to dribble with both hands by the time she's 4.

A Blessed Event

Sunday, July 5th was Maya's big day and she had a lot of family come to support her. I was a little worried that the beautiful dress Grandma Tracy made for her wouldn't fit where she has already gained 4lbs but it was a perfect fit. Thank you Grandma Tracy.
Mommy even went to the effort of painting Maya's fingernails so the ring that Grandma Jewels got for her would look even more pretty on her little hand.

Aunt Rachel enjoyed holding and feeding Maya until she loaded her shorts, spewing poo all over her, her dress(yes it came clean), and Aunt Rachel's skirt.


After a wonderful dinner of Smoked BBQ Pork sandwiches, spinach salad, frog eye salad, and root beer floats the busy day came to an end with Maya and Grandma Jewels taking a nap.
We are truly blessed to have 2 beautiful girls and a loving and supportive family and group of
friends. Thank you to everyone for all you do!
