Summer Vacation: Epcot

 Yes I'm still posting from our summer vacation:)  

I won't be able to sleep until I get caught up.

Over the summer we went to Orlando and went to all FOUR major Disney parks in TWO days. It was BUSY but so much FUN!

Here we are at the entrance of Epcot

She kept trying to yell as loud as the fireworks!

9 Months

9 Months!

Where is the time going?  

This little girl is go go go!

She is such a happy little girl.  She loves crawling around the house, looking at her reflection in the window, and putting EVERYTHING in her mouth:)

Eden thinks she can already walk, so we have to keep an eye on this one.

This Little Miss is FEARLESS!

 

 Eden had her nine month check up a couple of weeks ago.  Everything went great:)

Here are her stats:

4. Dances (we think she looks like a little bobble head)

5. (FINALLY) started to say mama

6. Loves to crawl through pillow tunnels

7. Pulls herself up on/against everything

8. Grabs her own books from her bookshelf

9. Started to point

Look familiar?

Memorial Day Weekend

For Memorial Day Weekend we decided to meet up with the gang from dental school (Brownings, Couchs, and Haynies) at the Pinnacles National Monument campsite for the weekend.

The campsite was nice because it allowed dogs and had a pool, but it was a little dusty for everyone.

This was Eden's first time camping.  We got a great deal on a tent, sleeping bags and air mattress.  We didn't realize how huge our tent was!  We could fit Eden's pack n play, a queen air mattress and still had extra room.  It was really nice! 

 Too bad E didn't want to sleep in her pack n play and ended up in our bed most of the night:)

Let's just say none of us got that much sleep.

Eden did wake up a happy girl though!

She LOVED waking up in the fresh outdoor air:)

 We just can't get enough of this little girl!

 We may have to try putting our tent up in our living room. Eden loved playing in there with her dad.

 Ben and Lilly

Getting ready to start our little hike the next morning.

Even though the campsite got all the kids filthy and we didn't get that much shut eye, I'm so happy that we all were able to meet up for the weekend.  

We sure do miss all of these friends!
