The past month!

Every time we pick up Channing from his Mom's on Brogan's first day back in town, he is super clingy to Saije. You can tell her really really missed her. It is so sweet! He's always so full of loves and kisses for his baby sister <3

Channing loves Daddy's new truck!

Man...this girl...I tell you what...she makes me sooo happy!

Brogan is Channing's idol. Everything and anything he does, he wants to do also. Brogan and I both have electric toothbrushes so we go Channing one for Christmas too. He used to HATE brushing his teeth until we got that and now he gets ticked when you tell him he's done and take the toothbrush away! He wants to be just like his Daddy!

Saije still can't crawl forwards yet, but she sure can get in the position all by herself and rock back and forth. She's mustering up the courage to take the first "step" forward but she's doesn't quite have enough of that yet. Ha Ha. She can sure as heck crawl backwards though! GEEZE! Why can she go backwards but not forwards?!

Brogan is a Puma guy. All he buys is Puma shoes. When I saw this darling Puma outfit at TJMaxx I couldn't resist. I knew he'd be a proud Daddy when he saw this and he was! In fact, before Saije was even born he bought her a Puma jumpsuit. Ya know...the workout pants with matching track jacket? It is DARLING! But the smallest size he could find was 12 months so it will be another 5 months or so before she will be able to fit in it. Just yesterday, I bought Channing one also! They are normally $44 but it was on sale at Macy's for $17.99! I couldn't pass that up!

My "Mom", Cris Strank, sells these cute beanies at her craft boutique in Ogden called "The Ivy Cottage". Saije and I made a trip down there to attend my cousin's baby shower and we stopped in to pick up some new craft projects and to see Mama Cris! She gave this to Saije and she wore it the entire hour we were there. A customer walked in and saw her and was like "She is the cutest baby I've ever seen! That hat is darling! Where did you get it?" Cris was holding her at the time so she explained that she sells them right there in that store. The lady bought one! How's that for good advertising?! lol

Saije really needed an excersaucer because she LOVES to stand up and she loves grabbing things! At first she was really weirded out by the whole thing and would cry if I walked away from her while she was in it. Eventually she grasped the concept of it and learned how to turn herself around using her legs and now she loves it! Just this morning she sat in it and played for a good 45 minutes or so.

Alissa and I spent a day in Twin Falls at the mall and she got Saije this cute stuffed bunny. She slobbered and drooled on that dang thing the entire time we were at the mall and it was soaked by the time we were done!

We went to Micah's basketball practice and watched her and I learned something...my daughter is going to be a Pepsi addict like her Daddy and I! Ha Ha!

While Brogan was gone, I had a ladies night with my friend Megan. She came to town from Twin and we went out to the bar and chatted and had a good time with just the two of us. It was MUCH needed! I normally don't do a whole lot when Brogan is gone. I normally just hang out with his family, run errands, and stay at home with the little princess. It's nice to get out sometimes though and have some TLC with my girls! Thanks Grandma and Grandpa for babysitting like always! <3

We always hit up Costco when Brogan comes home while we are in Twin Falls picking up Channing. Saije is getting too big for her car seat and it's such a pain to drag it in and out of stores all the time so we just left it in the truck and put her in the cart by herself. She did sooo good! She just kicked back and chilled the entire time!

Micah asked me to help her with her science project for the science fair so her and Alissa came over. While we were messing around with the experiment, Alissa gave Saije her first bath ever in the kitchen sink! I know ALOT of people who always do this when their babies are first born, but I never did. I always just bathed her in the bathtub. I have to admit. It was pretty dang cute because she isn't this tiny little baby anymore!

My friend Crystal hosted a little get together with a few of our girlfriends to craft and hang out. It was during Saije's naptime so I went and laid her down on Crystal and Fabian's bed. I walked in to check on her and this is what I saw! I take it she was REALLY comfortable! lol

This is our girl! Look at those precious cheekies and that priceless smirk on her face! It's funny because although she has NO genes shared with Brogan, she sure does pull alot of his same faces. Mommy and Daddy love you baby girl! Keep smiling! You're beautiful! <3
