5 months

I was looking back at past posts I had done and I was realizing how MUCH I blogged about Saylor and how LITTLE I've blogged about Oakley and I was feeling really bad. I love going back and reading about Saylor as a baby so I'm going to try really hard to stay more updated on Oakley.

Oakley is five months old! As Oakley gets older and can interact more, it is so cute to watch her and Saylor play. She really does adore her sister! Saylor can always get the biggest grins out of her. Oakley is such a strong girl! At four months old she started to get up and rock on her hands and knees and she pushes up and makes an a-frame. She is getting VERY close to crawling and I'm not sure if I'm quite ready for it! Oakley is a very active baby (just like her sister!) always rolling around, kicking her legs or trying to crawl. She is getting pretty good at sitting up. She started rice cereal and loves it! We tried to give her green peas and she absolutely hated them! She kept gagging on them and then just started screaming, her reaction was pretty funny! Oakley is such a people person. When we walk out of the room she will instantly cry because she hates to be alone! She really loves to be held as long as I am up doing things.

We love having Oakley in our family so much. If she was just a better sleeper, she would be perfect!

Here are some pics of our little cutie...

It is always funny to hear everyone's opinion on who Oakley looks like. Here are some pictures of Saylor in the same outfit...

Christmas Break

So we are finally back from our month long vacation! (Well...we've been back 2 weeks now, I'm just slow) We had so much fun with family and friends! We spent time in Utah and Idaho so here are a ton of pictures completely our of order of some of the fun things we did!

Saylor and Oakley got in a lot of cousin time which they loved!!

Here is a pic of all the girl cousins hanging out.

Saylor and Oakley in their matching Christmas dresses, I love when they match!

Basketball game up in Salt Lake with Ty's fam

I celebrated my 27th b-day in Utah, oh man I'm old! We went to this fun gymnastic place and got to play on all the mats and tramps. Saylor loved it of coarse.

Here she is being brave and jumping into the foam pit.

We went with Matt, Sarah, Essie and Autumn on the Provo River Cruise. There were Christmas lights everywhere and Santa even showed up on a canoe!

Oakley just being cute...

We got to eat at brick oven...my most favorite restaurant ever! Saylor and Essie played and played with their balloons and had so much fun together! This is actually a very monumental photo because Saylor and Essie haven't gotten along in the past. (Much to the dismay of their best friend mommies) This trip they were the best of friends and it made us so happy!!

Saylor snuggling with Grandpa

Dinner at Red Robin with some great high school friends.

Sarah, Bre, Me, Chrissy and Perky

I had to catch this moment when I saw my little girls actually playing together on the floor...so cute!

Saylor had been telling everyone that Santa was bringing her a Tiana doll and a dollhouse for Christmas. Christmas is seriously the best with Saylor. She is so animated and excited about every present, even before she knows what it is. The first thing she opened was actually princess lip gloss and she was ecstatic...she carried them around everywhere for days and even insisted on sleeping with them. She was also very excited about her Tiana doll...

Trying on her new Minnie outfit complete with purse, ears, glasses and slippers.

She had to have a Tiana dress to match her doll of coarse!

Grandma and Oakley

Here is what Oakley will look like in a few years when she gets some hair...haha!

We had a surprise visit from Santa on Christmas Eve!

Oakley and Skyler checking each other out.

We went ice skating on a big group date

We got in lots of Matt and Sarah time

Making sugar cookies at Grandma's

We had a super fun night with Matt and Sarah at the Mormon Tabernacle Choir Christmas concert. These guys are the best, we couldn't ask for greater best friends.

Before the concert we met up with Jules and Nate for dinner and we got to meet their adorable twins!!

And of coarse, we went up to Temple Square with the family to see all the beautiful lights

We also got to spend lots of time with my sister Kirstie which was totally awesome. She is in hair school so we definitely enjoyed all her new skills! She weaved my hair, gave me eye lash extensions, cut my bangs and also gave Ty a hair cut. She is seriously the most gorgeous, kind and fun person I know. We miss her already!

We had such a fun time but it is good to be home. Now just to get through these awful winter months!
