Lizzie is 15 months old!!!

I love this picture of her in her pool sticking her cute lil bum out.  Yeah so our baby really isn't a baby anymore.  Sniff.  What's new you ask.  Well...........

  • She has figured out how to slide backwards down our new stairs!
  • She dances all the time to music.  She loves anything with a fast beat but even sways to slow music.
  • She says about 5 words:  Mama, Dada, Uh Oh (sooo cute!!), Zapatos, Hi, and she said Leche once. She tries really hard to say other words like Parajo and Pelota.
  • She is getting used to our new home.
  • She is fascinated by doggies and animals.
  • She is really open to new places like she never cries when we leave her in nursery.
  • She can kind draw now and tries to do it a little more than she used to.  She doesn't try to eat the crayons as much.
  • Sometimes she will randomly kiss me or Paul.  We love it!!
  • She loves to be read to.
  • She lights up when she sees her daddy.
  • She likes to bring us our shoes, tries to put on her shoes and she tries to put our shoes on herself.
  • She can whine sometimes, lol.
  • She cries and yells loudly when she falls down, even if she's okay.
  • She loves to play peekaboo.
  • She loves to go to our basement room which is open and roll around in the open space and laugh.  It's hilarious.  
I know there's more.  I just can't remember it.  Tomorrow she goes to her 15 month check up!  Here are some pics that say more than I could.

We moved to Heber!!

Wow has it really been almost a month since I posted??  So sad.  I love posting and seeing a constant stream of good posts.  Oh well.  Well so much has happened since I last posted.  Paul graduated from Westminster with his MBA, wahoo!!! And we moved to Heber last weekend!!  Actually, we moved to Heber on June 2 and of course it's been craaazy busy since then.

I'm still working but have changed it to a two-day commute now.  I'm not gonna lie.  It's stressful.  Change is stressful, of course, so I can't figure out if it's stressful cause we have a ton of stuff still unpacked and our home is messy and we are all getting adjusted to life here and I am still working but not sure if I still want to be working because it's so much on my plate.  Plus, even though Paul graduated, he has to wrap up his last semester.  Just a lot going on.

On the flip side, we LOVE Heber.  My  mom was so great and came out here for a whole week last week to help us unpack and move and to help Lizzie get adjusted to life here.  She is started to get adjusted now.  Anyhoo, Heber is GORGEOUS!  I am actually sitting here on our back deck typing this and staring at the lovely Mt Timpanogos.  So pretty!

Paul and I have our first big date to explore the area on Friday and to bike around.  I can't wait!  It's the place I've always dreamed of living in, Mayberry and all that.  Sheep and horses running around and I promise I will share pics soon.

If you know me, you know I don't like things out of order so that's the reason I am most stressed.  Also, if you know me you know that sometimes when things get intense or stressful, I kinda shut down and get a little paralyzed so I'm doing a bit of that right now.  I know I'll come out of it soon.

Well, gotta run but this post has been a nice release for me.

Ta ta!!
