Keeping Busy and missing Daddy!

Last Sunday Brian left for Sacramento to do a rotation. We have missed him a lot and it has only been one week, one down and three more to go. To pass some time we have kept pretty busy playing, swimming, boating and fishing. I have been pretty good at remembering to bring the camera most of the time. Monday we went to Willard Bay with Mike, Sammie, Cade, Eric and Cole. We had a lot of fun in the sand and the water. Wednesday we got to play with the cousins and Grandma Millie. Then Saturday we went fishing at Barkers fish farm, for any of you interested it was great for Lizzie easy enough to keep her attention and cheaper than buying a license and food and they clean and fillet them for you.
Sorry, I am not used to my parents computer so the pictures are a little random.

Summer of Lizzie

Sometimes I think that we forget about Charlie, not that we do it's just when I look back at the pictures three fourths of them are of Lizzie. I guess it's because Charlie is still so small and does the same thing all of the time. This week we decided to go to the Davis County Fair, since Brian leaves Sunday we have been playing a lot with him. Really I am not a big fan of county fairs and I haven't been to one since I was in Junior High, but Lizzie LOVED it and we had some great finds (sarcasm).

Lounging after a fun time at the Fair

She loved the petting Zoo we even saw a 5 ton pig he was 4 feet tall. They wouldn't let us take a picture without paying for it, he was huge though!

Got to love free pony rides, although she was wondering why she didn't get a cowboy hat to ride the pony.

Also the two dollar train ride that went around in a circle good times!

This is proof that Lizzie can get anyone to do anything that she wants them to do.
I have decided that she lays in bed at night and laughs at all the things that she gets us to do, yes we are all wrapped around her little finger.

Free Give Away, yeah!

My friend Megan is having a give away for some really cute stuff. Check it out and be sure to enter for a chance to win yourself!

Baby is blessed

Sunday August 2, 2009, Charlotte Ann Snow was blessed by her father. It was a beautiful blessing and we were so lucky to have so much support of family. My parents worked so hard to get everything ready and we all played after the blessing at their house and ate some delicious food.






Thanks to everyone who came and helped with the food it turned out great and we couldn't have done it without you. We love you guys!

The wait is over . . .

And now the moment you all have been waiting for, the Snow Flakes proudly present our playhouse! I know you have all been waiting in anticipation for this post and it has taken me a while to get it done but here it is, complete with silly kids. We have a lot of fun playing in it, thanks to Grammy and Pappa for putting this together.

This past week we went to the dinosaur park with cousins Cade and Eric, for those of you who don't know Lizzie LOVES dinosaurs right now. I think she is the only two year old who loves the live dinosaur exhibit, most are scared of it.

We also went to Cherry Hill with the Snows this week, we had a lot of fun even though Lizzie was really tired. Here is a picture of Grandma Millie and baby Robbie relaxing.

Charlie also reached her three month mark, we don't take her in to the doctor till she turns four months but she sure is growing. She loves to talk and coo she is usually smiley and she loves her sister. She just figured out how to grab things and put them into her mouth. I am so lucky to have such a happy baby!

The adventures of Baby Bird

Lately Lizzie has been referring to herself as Baby Bird. It is rather funny because sometimes I swear she thinks she is a bird, whenever I call her big girl, or big sister which she usually likes she will adamantly tell me "no, I am Baby Bird". Anyway, we haven't had a post for a while because last week Baby Bird was sick with a runny nose and just felt crappy, so we spent most of the week at home for a little r&r. We did do a few things before and after and I did manage to snap a few pics here and there.

I don't know who likes the Bumbo more, Lizzie or Charlie either way it's a neat toy.

Working on her blue steel look, Magnum is still in the works

Ben is taking over Alex's spot as Lizzie's favorite, I really have to tell her to leave him a lone sometimes just to give him a break. But she did manage to get him to come over two days in a row so even though he won't admit it he really likes her too.

Having a picnic on the grass with Grammy, yummy watermelon!

Every week we try to go swimming at Aunt Erin's house. We have so much fun playing with the cousins. Cousin Laura, Isaac and Lydia swimming in the pool.

Lounging on the floatie with Grammy this was Lizzie being brave she actually got out of the baby floatie, it didn't last long though.

This is how she spent most of the time in the pool kicking around in the baby floatie, but hey it was a big improvment from last time she at least she was in the water.

Last Friday we went to the Aviary with Dad because he had the day off, it was so much fun to see the babies. Last time we went this baby was in the egg it was fun to see it growing.

A few weeks ago Lizzie got a new princess potty with pictures of crowns on it, she started asking where her crown was, so her dad made her a green princess crown. She wears it everytime she sits on the potty, she can't go potty without it now.

Lizzie's most recent score has been her new playhouse, we found it on craigslist. On the box it said it would take 2 moderatly skilled people 6 to 8 hours to put together. My dad, Brian, and Ben were determined to prove them wrong. It took them combined about 3 1/2 hours to complete, not bad I think. Finished product pictures to come later, I keep meaning to take one but it just hasen't happened yet.

A busy week

Last week we just played and played until we were to tired to do anything else. Monday we went to the Aviary with our cousins and had a lot of fun. Tuesday we went swimming at Aunt Erni's and Lizzie as usual liked the swings better than the pool. Wednesday Lizzie did gymnasitics and we played with Jenny and Addie. Thursday we went to the Zoo and met up with some cousins there, of course I forgot my camera to most of these events but I did manage to snap a few pics. I can't believe how much the Hogle Zoo has changed since I was there last, I barely even recognized it, they have worked hard on it. Friday, we went to the Dinosaur park with Uncle Ben and yes I forgot my camera again but she loved everything about the park. Everytime she would get a little nervouse she would run up to Ben and say "Ben don't be scared, don't be scared." It was really cute how much she loved him being there. Needless to say we are taking it easy this week, but I am sure that it won't last long.

Taking a break from swimming with some good friends, Allie and Zoia.

Hanging out at the Aviary, yes I cut Grammy and Charlie's heads off, but this was the best picture of the girls. It's hard to get them all to look at the camera at once!

One more random picture, Lizzzie discovered that it is really fun to wear pappa's shoes. I thought that it was cute enough to add this picture to the post.
