King Family Field Trip

This year we had a supa fun family reunion at Bear Lake. It was so much fun! Not only did I get to see all of my family, I got a wicked sweet sunburn! Hecka Yeah! Here's a little sneak peak into our super legit reunion (Picture Overload!!!!)

Dad may or may not kill me when he sees this picture...it depends if he's dressed as "Dad" King or "President" King.

 The kids launched things while the babies watched.                                  

 

 Ava LOVED sand. She ate lots of it...I found it later in her poop. Yummy.

 We rented this and attempted to work off the million calories we ate.

  

We got raspberry shakes everyday...seriously...everyday.

  

Mom had her annual "Grandma's Camp"

 We played on the beach....

 

 We relaxed....

 We canoed....

 

 We hiked around Tony's Grove

  

We went to a parade.

 All of the cousins born in one year.

We had such a good time and we can't wait for the next reunion!

First Haircut

Ava had a piece of hair about 3 inches longer than the rest of her hair. After becoming less endearing and more creeper, I finally decided we should probably give it a little trimsy.

10 Months

Ho-LY! Only two more months until the biggest birthday bash St. George has ever seen happens! John and I LOVE this stage! Ava's little personality has come out and there is nothing little about it! She is so active and busy. I'm shocked that even after chasing her all day, I still haven't lost the baby blubbs! Where is the justice?!

Likes:
Food...all of it
Kids/Babies
Reading
Chaos
Making noise
Climbing

Dislikes:
No
Organization - she can't stand anything stacked, put away, etc. I think she is the anti-Maren

She is seriously the best, funniest little person EVER! We love that she lets us sleep (bed time is 8:30pm - she goes right to sleep -  and the she wakes up at 8 am). We are loving every busy minute with her!

She thinks she's pretty legit...and let's be honest...she totally is.

What a little poser!

Two Weddings and a Flava

Two of John's siblings got married almost within a month of each other. Are they crazy!? Just kidding, it was super fun to be able to see everyone both times! Ava does semi-well with events...and she also does semi-not well. It was like she knew what was coming...as soon as I would put on her dress, she would get all antsy. At least she was presentable...that's the important thing.

Crazy Random Happenstances

Here are some totally random things/pictures that have happened over the past month.

We went hiking out to Snow Canyon

Ava tried chicken for the first time...(if can't read her facial expressions, she didn't like it)

(Hiking...this picture would not turn)

We tried swimming again....

aaaannnnd, she finally liked it!

Ava and I came down to Price for a visit

I turned 25 and John sent me flowers! (Don't mind my big cheeser and fatter arms)

We went fishing and Ava hung out and tried to avoid the wind.

It's been a pretty fun month!

9 Month Update

This is a little late, but not much has really changed. Flavs is getting so fun and big! Literally, she's huge. I love to squish her fat little cheeks. She is going to be walking soon...I can feel it! She pulls herself up onto furniture and then walks along it. She thinks its the best thing. She has also been able to stand up by herself for a few seconds.

Likes
Mum-Mums/Fruit Puffs
Sippy Cups
Being Naked
Bathtime
Being Chased
Playing Peek-a-Boo
Cool Whip (We let her try it and she about died of excitement)
Cousin Brigham (Seriously, whenever these two see each other, they start bouncing with excitement, laughing, squealing, and then they race to each other.)

Dislikes
The Pool
Getting Dressed
Getting her Nose Sucked Out
Naptime
Doorstops (She hit one by accident. When it made then sound, she jumped and screamed. Now whenever she sees one, she backs away from it and then keeps looking back at it to make sure it's still there. Should I feel bad that I think her fear is hilarious?)
Showers

We love this baby and we think she is just the best!

Family Pictures

Not all of the pictures we take are disastrous. We only had to photoshop boogers out of Ava's nose. Now, if only we could figure out how to photoshop the fat off of my arms.
