Poor Lyla

Two days after we left Pinedale, Lyla got a TERRIBLE cold, it lasted forever. Every night was just awful. She would wake up every 1-2 hours and couldnt breathe at all. Shes had colds but none like this one. Then after almost a week the cold turned into croupe, it was soo sad and scary because it was hard for her to breathe. We took her to the doctors and she also had an ear infection. They gave her antibiotics and was supposed to be on it for 10 days, on the 6th day i noticed she had some pink spots on her, I thought they were just bug bites because the night before we were outside for a while. The next morning it covered her whole body. We took her to the doctors and they gave her some steroids to take. We gave her benedryl and the steriod hoping it would go away. By night it still hadn't gone away and now her hands and feet were sooooo swollen. We went ahead and took her to the E.R. and waited forever! they gave her a shot of another steriod. Thats what made it go away! What also was annoying is every doctor visit and perscription we had to pay for because we werent in Az. (we're on access in az and everything is covered there) Poor Lyla went through alot those couple of weeks and whats sad is she cant take anything with penicillin in it because she is allergic. This was all because someone got her sick!

Lyla also broke in her first tooth on april 14th, her bottom right tooth.

She was still a happy girl at the e.r.

After the shot she fell asleep, it was midnight by this time. I love that her feet stick out of her carseat.

Easter family reunion

My whole family celebrated easter the week before and the WHOLE family was there. We hadn't all been together for 2 years! it was so much fun to all be together. It was also Lyla's first easter.

Troy and I have been here in cali since March 30th because Troy is once again working here for the summer. We will be here probably till July. Its been so much fun being here in cali and visiting old and new friends. I forgot how much i love cali, its seriously beautiful here!!!!

7 months

This posts is long over, Lyla turned 7 months on March 20th. She Started to crawl on march 27th and now she is ALL over the place, she is standing up on anything and everything, she even walks along things too. She will sometimes take her hands off and will be standing by herself for a few seconds.

Over the past month she has become ALOT more active, she has alot of energy and is a very happy girl

she squeals, screams, blows bubbles, and babbles all day long

she says mamama and dadada all the time, i love it!

Now that she can stand its harder for her to go to sleep on her own. She just stands up and also plays witht he monitor thats in her crib

Loves to feed herself, and loves her puffs. She also likes feeding herself turkey, bananas, and everything thats on the floor!

She makes funny faces and the one i love is her scrunched up face.

Used to be easy to put down for bed, but not anymore!

Will go to anyone, such a friendly little baby

Getting more to be mommy's girl, she likes to have attention and sometimes doesnt like when i leave the room

She is so much fun, and alot of work, but well worth it. I love her so much!!!

Pinedale

On March 15th 2010 we went up to pinedale and stayed in Troys Grandma's cabin with the Palmers. We stayed there for a few days. Troy was able to go snowboarding with his brother Sterling. This picture above was us coming home from Pinedale

Grandpa Palmer set this up to take them on a walk. They really liked it.

We're glad we went, it was alot of fun

Outside

These pictures were taken march 12th 2010.
Lyla just loves being outside. I take her out alot, I swing her and then we just sit on the grass. She would just sit there and look all around, She loved looking at the airplanes. She would just sit so calmly and just soak everything in.

Lyla got a hold of the camera and then i pushed the bottom to capture it haha
