The other day I put Lorelai down on her tummy and set her little stuffed duck just out of her reach to see if she would try to get it. She quickly figured out she couldn't reach it, but that didn't stop her...
Yay for Lorelai's first attempt at crawling (or scooting)!
We've decided it's time, we're making our blog private very soon. Therefore I would appreciate it if you all would either email me your email address or leave it in the comments a.s.a.p. Thanks! emilyhouse05@hotmail.com.
Lorelai recently learned to roll from her back to her tummy and in this picture has rolled herself into the side of her play mat, this happens daily! By the time she finishes she is rarely even still on the play mat.
She insists on helping hold the spoon whenever I feed her and also insists on having one of her hands in her mouth along with the spoon and the food! Oh, the fun we have!
Lorelai loves Gizmo, evertime she sees him she gets a big smile, he has also taken pretty well to her, sometimes he is a little nervous and other times he tries to get right up in her face and lick her. She likes to pull his hair and he doesn't seem to mind. I think they are going to be good friends!
As you can see here is Gizmo in the bathtub. I have no explanation. Every now and then when we are in the bathroom getting ready he just jumps in and sits there and watches us, I don't know why.
It finally feels like spring here, so yesterday we got out in the yard and did a little clean up for the first time since winter began. Actually, we first paid a kid in the ward to mow the lawn, then we did the rest. Since our yard isn't very big we should probably do it ourselves, but then we'd have to buy a lawn mower, maybe next year. These pictures don't really do justice to what we did. We actually pulled out a few ugly bushes and replaced them with new ones, planted some flowers and threw down new bark and some new rocks. I must say I thought we did pretty good!
Yeah, these really are the highlights of our lives right now!

Lorelai with Grandpa House
Lorelai with Uncle Adrian and Aunt Lindsey
Lorelai with Grandma Dixon
Lorelai sleeping on Grandpa Miller, she was so tired she slept on him for over and hour at the reception, so cute!
Aunt Tara and Lorelai playing!
Grandma Miller holding Lorelai and cousin Brooklyn while Tara, Jackie and I got pedicures. 
We had a great time just the girls, pedicures followed by facials and lunch and shopping! We had such a good time with everyone, once again I failed at my attempt to get pictures with everyone we spent time with. We were able to spend time with all the family (House's, Miller's and Dixon's). Derek and Kristen were in town when we were so we saw them and their girls which was great! Darin was also in town when we were so we went on a double date with him and his friend Courtney! Preston and I also got some birthday shopping in for me because Az has way better shopping options than Id. I've left much out I am sure, but all in all it was a great trip!
