More Judd

The exciting event for this week was that Devynn started eating rice cereal. I thought she would be a little slow at learning to eat off a spoon. No siree! She ate like a pro. Here the girls sporting their matching pajamas. Ari is so cute with Devynn, she always wants to hold and hug her. This morning I went to check on the girls, they like to sleep in late, and Ari had crawled up into bed with Devynn and was cuddling with her. It was a great sight to see.

Church is always an experience! Last week we forgot Ari's pacifier, and I found myself, during the opening prayer, saying my own prayer that Ari would behave though out the duration of the prayer. She also, stood on here chair and screamed PAPA PAPA and was waving to him on the stand. I found the cutest dresses for the girls but this the only picture I got. Devynn was wearing one too but I didn't get a picture. This is the face Ari makes when you say, "say cheese."

The Liljenquists came over for a bbq and a fun night out. Ari and Emma get along great, I can already tell that they will be great friends.

Tribute

I was just looking at pictures from the past and I picked out a few of my favorites. All of these pictures are from Ryannes files so they are mainly of her (some are of Christine). She has so many classic pictures it is hard to choose which ones to post. I have decided to use this post as a tribute to her. Thanks Ry for all the laughs!

Swimming

Things have been wonderful since we have been back from Idaho, even though it is soooooooooo hot. Dad has come home from the cabin for a week to get caught up on work. We are glad to visit with him. Grandma and I took a quilting class which was a blast. I am acutally almost done with my quilt top so that is exciting. Nate is doing well and working hard. The girls continue to get more and more fun everyday. It is so amazing how quick they grow and learn. Ari is talking, climbing and getting into things more and more. Devynn is supporting her head and smiling at herself when she looks in the mirror. Today was Devynns first time swimming. Both of the girls had a great time.

Daddy and the skinny dippers

Ari is helping her daddy blow up the floaties.
Devynn had a great time.
While we were in the pool Nate was trying to see how high he could get Ari. As you can see it is pretty high. (and no, she is not photo shopped in there.)



Nate feel asleep with the girls.

Ari is constantly laying on and trying to pick Devynn up. This picture was taken right after the girls woke up. Notice Ari's hair, it is so lovely.

Ari loves shoes! Whether it is dad's boots, my flip flops or Nates shoes, she is always trying to put someones shoes on. Notice the hair again, her hair is amazing to me.
This is Ari's watching the trailer for Shrek the Third for the hundreth time. She watches it like it is her first time everytime.

The Cabin

This week we were able to visit our favorite place in the world... THE CABIN! We had a great time spending time with the family. There are so many pictures and there will probably be more so get ready for the excitment. Like always we had fun and many new adventures. This trip we were able to get lost on a random branch of the Madison which left us handing our kyaks down a waterfall to each other and dodging electrial fences. We were lucky enough to ride in a car with Ben and Ryanne to Bozeman, going anywhere with those two is an adventure in itself! The boys got Dad a paintball gun for his birthday and sense none of them had a gun they all bought themselves one too. Everyone came back with battle wounds. And, we saw a bear on the property (both Nate and Ben claim they saw it first).

Ari and Papa are playing baseball with cousins and friends.

Ari and doh doh

Devynn loves Ben!

This was taken after going down the river. Ari was waiting for us at the end with Nana and Devynn.

Mom is holding Devynn, Ryanne is holding Mom.

With skin like her Dads and being so new Devynn can't be the sun for too long.

Both of the girls love their daddy!

Here is a picture of mom and dad relaxing!
