The Hotdog Dance

Karlee is all ready to start dance (in 2 years) but for now she loves doing the hotdog dance at the end of Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. She gets so excited when it comes on. It is so cute!!

Utah Trip

We just got back from a 10 day trip to Utah. We had a lot of fun and Karlee did really well adjusting to all the new places we stayed. I am so glad I got to see so many family and friends.

Karlee and I drove up early so we could go to my friend Sheryl's reception. She looked beautiful!
One of the days I got to hang out with my old college roommates Ari Anna and Carrie. We were such good friends at school and it is always fun to see them.

Ari Anna's little boy Hunter and Karlee had fun playing together.

Aubrey and I got to go to dinner with another college friend Melissa. It was fun catching up with her.

Karlee did good meeting so many new people and being at so many different places.

We took her to a little petting zoo one afternoon and she loved the animals.

Jeff flew up on Wednesday and we got to stay with our friends Nick and Lindsi. They have a little dog and Karlee Loved him! She followed him around everywhere the whole time we were there. It was so cute but we aren't getting a dog:)

The last part of the trip we went to Bear Lake with Jeff's family. It was fun to see everyone and Karlee loved playing with her cousins. The lake was freezing but Karlee didn't seem to mind.

Karlee's cousins (except Phebe). For some reason I didn't take a lot of pictures.

We had such a fun time but Karlee is no longer a fan of the car so we won't be going anywhere that takes longer then 10 minutes for awhile:)

Karlee is a big girl!!

I know it sounds dumb but anyone with kids knows that changing carseats is a big deal! We finally got Karlee's new carseat today and she loves it. She can see out the window and look at us while we drive. What a big girl!

Where's Karlee?

Karlee thinks it is so fun when we put all her stuffed animals around her and ask, Where's Karlee? Some of them are about her same size!

Happy 4th of July!!

Can you believe Karlee can still fit in her 4th of July outfit from last year?

She was only 2 weeks old here.

More Birthday Fun

Karlee is officially spoiled! On her birthday she got to open lots of presents and eat more cake. She got so many new toys she didn't know what to do.

We sang happy birthday and let her dive into the cake. She actually only took a few bites and then she was done. She just got her top two teeth so she hasn't been feeling well.

She got presents from both grandparents, both my sisters, some friends, and us.

Karlee loves her new baby from Jeff's mom.

She got blocks from my mom.

Her friend has a swimming pool full of balls that she loves so we thought she would love her very own pool of balls.

She is only 1 but she is already acting like a little mommy pushing her baby around in her stroller.

Then on Saturday we went with our friend Shauna and her little boy Cohen to the circus.

She loved parts of it but by the end they had both almost fallen asleep. It was fun but they were probably a little too young to fully understand what was going on.

Happy Birthday Karlee!!

Karlee is a year old today! We can't believe how fast the year has gone by. She has brought us so much joy and we love her so much!

She is still pretty little but when we look back through the year we can really see how much she has grown.
