Bumps and Bruises

Over the span of 1 week Mya got the following "ouiees"

This one came in behalf of Grandma Curtis' coffee table. It bruised immediately and later produced quite the the black-eye (as seen further below)...

We had been home from grandma's for barely 5 minutes when Mya got her first fat lip. She was twirling in the kitchen when her feet got tangled and she landed right on her face on the hard wood floor. It started bleeding which freaked mom out a little :) She would not hold still to let us stop the bleeding. Needless to say we both had blood all over us! It was a hard night...

This is the black-eye two days later...

Mya skinned both of her knees with her first experience of walking outside with shorts on. You can see some of the other bruises on her shins. She skinned this one as we were loading the cars for St. George. She was so brave and didn't even cry!

Silly Goose!

I finally took Mya in for her one year pictures 4 weeks ago. They turned out really cute. Here are just a few...

Here are some funny pics and videos of Mya. Hope they make you smile like they do for me!

Mya loves to get into the bottom drawer in the kitchen and pull everything out. This video will show what else she likes to do with the drawer....

Diggin'

Last Friday we took a trip around the south end of Utah Lake, then went "diggin" in Scott's truck. It was fun to get out of the house and to enjoy the nice sunny day. Mya thought it was pretty fun to sit up by mom and dad and to be able to look out the window. Scott wished it was muddy so his truck would have gotten all dirty, I'm just glad we came home in one piece and the truck still running! haha (You'll know what I mean by the pictures...)

Update

So I know it's been a while since my last post (sorry Sarah!) Life has just been crazy busy with work, being a mom, and the usual house chores that never go away! So a few new things to blog about... I am now 24. Sigh- I'm no longer "just out of high school" although I still feel like it! Scott bought me a wicked nice new digital camera so my pics will no longer be dark and blurry! I have been taking pictures like crazy- you'll see some shortly. Nothing really new to report with the house. We had a couple go through on Saturday that really liked it, so we're crossing our fingers. Alright, I'm not good at just writing so I'll just start throwing in the pics now...

First picture of Mya with the new camera. Much clearer than before! She is such a goof ball like her daddy! haha

Here's some cute pics from Easter. Mya didn't really understand the whole egg hunt concept but she just loved being outside and carrying the basket everywhere!

So I taught Mya a cool trick of raising her eyebrows. :) I finally captured it on camera! She is too cute!

Mya's update... I took her in for her 15 month check up Wednesday. She only weighs 19 lbs 1 oz which is in the 5th percentile. Her height percentile dropped from 24th to 3rd, and her head is in the 75th percentile! haha Yeah, she's all brains! So the other day she was playing in her room while I was folding laundry. I went to check on her and this is how I found her... She makes me laugh. I love being a mom!
