Play time

She loves to play with this toy if I prop her up on the couch. Usually, I have to push the buttons to make it play, but the other day she was able to push the buttons all by herself. She can't sit up on her own, so I have her tied into the corner of the couch with all sorts of blankets and pillows. It's pretty funny and it didn't look that comfortable, but she loved it. I've learned you'll do just about anything to them or for them if it will occupy them for a good 20 minutes or so. LOL!

Shopping Girl

I took this while Leila and I were out shopping the other day. Isn't she a cutie?! Love her more and more each day! We were out looking for a swimsuit for her at the outlet mall. She helped pick out a cute striped suit and a sun hat. She's planning on wearing them in Vegas next week!
This little girl loves to shop. She NEVER cries when we go to the mall or store. Her daddy is in big trouble....two girls who love to shop. Yikes!


Leila's Dedication

I am so bad at posting on this blog. Forgive me for the late updates!
Leila was dedicated on April 19th, 2009. She was 11 weeks old! My mom was here from Texas and Andy and Hanna came from Seattle. Amy and Kim, Leila's Aunts, sang a beautiful song to her and it made everyone cry! Several people in the church family selected verses to read and share with us. It was a very special day and the weather couldn't have been better! Leila is wearing a christening gown that my mother wore in 1954. Since then, all the children in the family have worn this gown on the day of their christening. What a special gift to pass on to her!






These are photos taken way back in April! Sorry for the late post! These are all the grandkids on the Grove side of the family with Grandma and Grandpa! Next year, we'll have one more girl to add to the bunch. Andy and Hanna are due in September!
