A Sunny Weekend

We decided to get out of the icky air of the Salt Lake Valley and head for Sunny St. George! It's still cold down here for my blood, but in the sun it feels great, and you can breath outside! Even though when I come down here I still have to work a little, it's nice to just get out of the same old funk! It's been relaxing and fun for me and the girls. However Ansley has been asking to go home, I think she misses her Daddy and her bed, so I guess it's time to start packing up and make the short adventure back.


How fun is it to have a daughter like yourself? Hopefully she only picks up my good qualities. This particular quality Shirley picked up Brady hates because almost every picture we have of us on vacation I'm wearing my sunglasses. I can't help it though, the sun is bright! Shirley must think so too because we were outside playing and she was crying until I put on her sunglasses to help with the glare of the sun. Look how happy she became! You would think most 2 month old babies would scream when you try to put on sunglasses, she loved it! Almost to a giggling state! I also noticed since we've been down here that she is growing into my smile, the skinny upper, and fat lower lip. I always joked that I got my mom's upper lip and my dad's lower... she got the same. We pulled out some of my mom's baby pictures the other day and Shirley looks just like her, everyone always says that I looked just like my mom too. It's hard to tell at this age, with our age difference, but it pictures it's what everyone says.


So Ansley might not look like me, or anyone in my family, but she had definitely picked up parts of her personality from me. It's fun to see her exasperated, cuz when she is she acts just like how I act when I am. She likes to wear her sunglasses all the time too, and has enjoyed learning how to put them on top of her head like I do. And she loves to craft with me! This weekend we bought some stickers and glitter glue and she went to town. I got this great pic on my phone of her totally concentrating on the squeezing the glue bottle wearing nothing but a diaper, totally classic!
