Memories

This little girl is growing way to fast!!

She loves to play with keys (real ones) and cell phone (real one).

Leah plays in her car runs around getting all her favorite toys to put in then comes to me blows me a kiss and saids "ready" "Bye". sure is the cutest thing ever.

Just tonight she melted my heart but at the same time had me wanting to stop time.

As we were getting ready for bathtime she was playing and I was watching something on tv when she came up to me wanted a kiss. I gave her one she walked away turned around and said "bye". As Leah was playing in the bath all I could think of was when I turned 16 got out of school early to go get my license. Went home kiss my parents and off I went.

I am not ready for that memory!!

See how tell she is getting!!

Leah wanted grandpa to go for a walk.

Leah telling daddy lets go.

Grandpa and Leah throw rocks in the river.

Watching the rock hit the water.

Watch me!

We had to duck tape her boots to her pants she kept kicking them off.

Follow me grandpa.

The river was pretty and flowing very fast.

The first camping weekend of the year was a nice relaxing and much needed.

We can't wait until the next one.

WestPort

Leah had alot of first this weekend starting on Friday morning. She had her First dentist appt. She did good was not a fan of having to sit and wait and started to get a little upset when the dentist was taking long. By the time the dentist came to look in her mouth she was crying and that was easy for the dentist to look in her mounth. Leah's teeth look great and she is getting more teeth and she had NO sign of cavities. Very active molars.

Leah's First camping trip.

 After Leah and I got home from the dentist Jason was pretty much loaded up and ready to go to Westport for 2 days.

After getting all set up and put out the crab pots.

We relaxed around the fire to try and keep warm.

Leah had fun out in the boat watching the waves and all the boats. She said "boa" everytime she seen one.

We stayed in the "Briggs Hampton" Our tent is little to big for a family of 3. I love it! Its big and roomy. We got lots of looks I think is cause of the tent.

Jenn even had fun this old lady.

Red not so happy she had to be on a rope to keep her from running around.

Leah and Dad did alot of talking enjoying the fire.

Leah telling Daddy more stories.

Mommy and Leah warming up our hands.

She would say "Hoott".

Leah did alot of playing with Red.

Watching other campers.

Eatting cheetos and playing with her stick.

She loved her cheetos she ate until bedtime.

Washing down the cheetos.

Saturday morning Grandpa Kevin came to hang out while Jason and I went clam digging.Wish I would have bought my camera to the beach Leah had a blast helping dig clams and running around playing with sand. Jason and I only got 4 clams not a good dig this year. We were hoping to do better with the crab pots. After Lunch we headed out to the bay to get our pots. Leah fall asleep so Kevin went out with Jason while Leah slept and I sat in the truck. We then went to Kevins river lot on the Cowlitz since crabbing was no good and the weather for sunday wasn't looking good to take the boat out again.

I have been waiting forever.

           I have been waiting forever to try and put Leahs hair in a pony tail instead of a bam bam do. Not quite long enough but I can do it. I think it looks so cute and it even makes her look way older. Not that I want her to be oldered then she already is.

College Money Vs Car Money.

Leah has resently learned how to put change and dollar bills in her piggy bank. Everytime Grandpa Kevin, Grandpa Meyer, Grandma Meyer, or Daddy/Mommy gives her money or she see is on the floor she knows where to put it. Goes right into her piggy bank.

Looking for change in daddy's pocket.

It was falling out so she thought she would help by take it out.

I am on a mission to put the money in the bank.

I run into my room and sit on the floor ready for mommy to get me my piggy bank.

One. Two.

All done!

Now I know I can get it back out if I take this off.

Is there more daddy!! I need money Pleeaasseee...
