Katie and baby Noah came to visit!

I have a new buddy named Noah. He & his mom Katie, who is mom's good friend, live in Oregon. They came out to see us last week. He's 7 months old and is just the cutest baby boy ever. We had so much fun playing together! Mom & Katie had a good time too. They had girl's night out, went to dinner at Cheesecake Factory, and up to Oktoberfest at Snowbird. I wish they lived closer so Noah & I could have play dates all the time! Hopefully mom & dad will take me up to Oregon to visit them soon. We miss them already!

Checkin' him out

I ate my hand (my new favorite thing by the way) and Noah ate the leaves

My first camping adventure!

Mom & Dad took me camping for my first time this weekend! They didn't want to take me too far away from home so we went up to the spruces in Big Cottonwood Canyon. My aunts Summer & Jess came too, along with Derek, Neal, Thomas, & Hayden. We had such a good time! They cooked up some delicious food for dinner and of course had smores for dessert. It was a nice night with some sprinkles here & there. I was so cozy in my warm bear suit that I pretty much slept the whole time! I can't wait to go to the mountains again!

Two Months

Mom & Grandma took me to the doctor the other day to get my 2 month immunizations. I was so good for the doctor...he was amazed at what a calm & easy going baby I am. I only cried for a minute after my shots. I think mommy was more sad about it than I was! I still keep smiling more all the time and Mom & Dad are anxiously waiting to hear my first laugh! Mom likes to take lots of pictures of me since I seem to just get cuter everyday. Here are some of the latest & greatest!

Big smiles for Grandma Mindi!

Mom got me all dressed up warm when it rained. We're ready for winter!

Idaho Bound!

We headed out to Idaho last weekend to hang out with G-Paps. The car ride was not that bad I only made mom and dad pull over once to feed me on the way there and on the way home I slept the whole time.

While in Idaho we had some really good food, dad and G-Paps went to play frisbee golf, we hung out at the firepit. I saw live animals up close for the first time. I saw horses, llamas, sheep, chickens and some other little critters.

I have a new cousin!

My new cousin who I have been anxiously waiting for has finally arrived! Krew Zachary Eckman was born on August 19, 2008 at 11:19 pm to my Aunt Beth & Uncle Zach. My poor Aunt Beth was in labor all day before finding out around 10:00 pm that she had to have a c-section. But everything turned out just fine and little baby Diego aka Krew came out healthy and handsome as can be! We are going to be such good buddies!

Happy girl

I am smiling more & more everyday! I just melt mommy & daddy's hearts with my big grins. I like to make lots of funny faces too.




Also, Mom & Dad are trying to get a bedtime routine started for me so daddy reads me a story every night before bed. I love story time with my daddy!
