So Happy

Every where I go Roxanne draws alot of attention, of course a cute baby how can anyone not notice.  But the best compliment I get is that she looks so happy.  Perfect strangers and people I run into often tell me that all the time and I love it.  It is so true, she is such a happy smiley child and I am such a lucky mom to get to spend my day with her.
 
This is now Roxy's favorite bathing position, as you can see we don't put much water in the tub for fear she'll put her face in it.

This was last Sunday that flower was hanging on by one hair within the hour, but she started out super cute.

Long Days


Jon is doing some intense training at work, and yesterday turned into a long day so he didn't get to see Roxy.  So this post is really so he can see the cute ponytail she was sporting.

Omahans

We are now settled in here in Omaha.  It has been a great move for us and Jon is hard at work.  We are happy to be near family and getting a steady paycheck.  It has turned into a hot summer, but started out really nice when we first got here.  We are enjoying tons of fun outdoor concerts, farmers markets, and festivals.  One of the highlights was July 4th.  Omaha has to be one of the best places for the 4th, there are tons of fireworks between the golf courses, churches, and then street shows there are fireworks as far as you can see along the horizon.


                        Getting in on the unpacking action in the kitchen.
 Roxy started solids, and she is a champ, she prefers bananas and avocadoes to the store bought baby foods.
 She hangs out in the sink while I am getting ready in the morning.  She is very patient when there is a mirror around to entertain herself with.
 
Lunch with Dad, and taking a look at the flooding. That is Gallup to the right of them.


 Roxy loves swimming and constantly splashes while we're in the pool.  She also takes a great nap after swimming.

                 I wish that she would smile that big at my camera.
 Below is Roxy wearing one of her dad's baby outfits.  Otherwise I don't know why we would be Hoosier fans.  Jon loved it, cause it looked like she was ready to run around in those little shorts.
Roxy is 6 months old and growing fast, she finally decided it was time to roll over and is pretty good at sitting up.  She has happy little personality and constantly smiling.  She has way more friends than we do as she can draw anyone's attention.

Cute Girl



In this video Roxy is laughing, she hasn't done it like that since, but she is a very fun happy girl.  There is this magic time before she goes to sleep that she is prone to laugh, it is our favorite time of day.  Never mind, I can't upload my video, trust me it's cute, enjoy the pictures instead.

Bucket List









We have a huge list of things that we want to do before we leave Utah.  However we have only done a few things on that list.  Last week we went to Southern Utah and did Bryce, Kodachrome, Escalante and Zions.  I have done all these as a kid because I spent most of my summers in Panguitch, however Jon has never gone and that would be a shame to miss Bryce and Zions.  Luckily Roxy is a pretty good sport with traveling and hiking.  We had one more day of visiting Zions and driving over Cedar Breaks, but I got super sick so we just headed home.  I am grateful for my Aunt Pam and Uncle John who took great care of  us.
