Siddoway Family

Hello Natalia! This week went by so fast. Last Saturday celebrated Grandma's birthday at Tucanos. It was fun, but I think Mommy's done going there forever, or until Daddy's birthday next year. Anyway, Mommy never posted the pictures so that's why I brought up last Saturday.

So we've had a fun week this week. We went on long walks, weeded, got caught up on laundry, went to the Farmer's Market, and even had visitors. I think you liked the Farmer's Market because you LOVE to be outside. We love it too. We bought some corn from the Bangeter Farm since they are from Bountiful and Mommy knew some Bangeters before you were born. I'll tell you about that someday. On Friday you and I visited our friends that we visit weekly and on Saturday WE LEFT YOU WITH A BABYSITTER! (Our special friends we visit every week) M thought it would be good for Daddy and I to go on a date so we tried it out. Mommy was very nervous. I even cried on the way to Adam's Canyon, where Daddy and I went after we dropped you off. I called when we got there and you were just fine. Everything went well and I think we all had a blast. You had your very first bottle at the Smith's and M said you downed it with no problem. Mommy and Daddy were so happy that you were just fine.

Let me tell you what Daddy and Mommy did on our date. First, we started to hike up Adam's Canyon. It started to rain, though, and we could see 2 walls of rain in the distance headed toward us so we decided to go somewhere else. We stopped by the house, grabbed our umbrellas, and went to the pond across from the Farmer's Market. We walked around and just spent time together. After we went to Pa's Ice Cream, got 2 chocolate covered strawberries and then headed to Dylans. At Dylan's we shared a salad and then enjoyed our strawberries. Mommy and Daddy had so much fun. I think you had so much fun too and I can't tell you how happy I am that everything went well with you. I was worried over nothing. The kids enjoyed you too.

Well, that's all Mommy is going to write for now. I love you so much! You are getting so big! You had started to purposely inch forward when we put you on your tummy instead of doing it out of frustration. You are such a cutie. Today it sounded just like you copied the sound that Daddy made and later copied what Mommy said. It'd be cool if you did. We love you Baby Girl.

Oh yeah, Daddy told me that yesterday you discovered your hands! He took you on a long walk in the morning so I could try to sleep more. He said you looked at your hands as if realizing they belonged to you. You would put a hand in front of you, stare at it, and move your fingers around. Good girl. Yep, those belong to you.
