Palm Springs

Well the weather is finally back to being warm again and we were due for a good Palm Springs trip. My Parents, Joshua and I and the baby all went. Boy was it a "good" trip. Almost everything went wrong and we totally ended up laughing about it the whole time. For the privacy of our egos, I will let you guys guess which of the four of us these things happened to. That way when I tell you I was throwing up and pooped diarrhea in the hotel BED in my sleep!.......you might think it was Josh or my Dad. 

One of us had a urinary track infection.

The hotel room was supposed to have two king beds not one king and two twins.

My parents car is now smashed in the back from a irresponsible driver. 

Money was stolen from my Parents' account from a rude person in Bolivia. 

A little kid decided to poop in the pool and the hotel staff decided to surround the pool with caution tape...during prime swimming hours.

When we got back to my Parents', the front door knob FELL off in my hand and needed to be replaced right away. 

Other than that it was a perfect trip and our little girl turned 4 months old. 

Ever's first swim ever. 

The same hotel I have been going to since I was a little girl! 

My cousin Damree and Max 

Our favorite coffee place in Palm Springs. We found it on our Honeymoon.

The Bean and her many faces

Everly has been changing so much just in the past week. She is getting to the stage where I can actually play with her. I flip her upside down and she opens her mouth wide with a smile, sometimes a squeal.

If you have met Everly you probably have heard her funny grunting and seen her scowling eyebrows. Things you may not know about her if you don't live with her is that she sleeps in our bed. Her tiny little body lays between me and the wall. In the morning she blinks her eyes about 100 times in a row while staring at Joshua and I. Then once she has fully woken up she wont stop smiling. After a few minutes of smiley bliss we go to the toilet. She pees and then stretches her legs and arms. Eats her breakfast and watches as Mom and Dad get ready for the day. Then she usually goes back to bed for an hour or two. She wakes up and goes pee and sometimes poop on the toilet again. Then I take her with me to pick out her outfit for the day and once she is dressed I take her to the mirror so she can see how we look. 

I always say "Mama and Evie"

I think she gets it.

I show her pictures on my phone and she hoots at the photos of herself, me and Joshua. 

She stands firmly now and her head does not wobble like it used to. I can hold her with just ONE arm! So nice. That means I can hold her AND do something else. 

There is just this one thing that this little bean has been doing lately. Finally strong enough to lift her enormous cheeks. She really loves being on her belly and here is some proof.

These last two photos remind me of Paige Ellen Sarr her cousin. 

I am pretty sure I need to remember that we have a NICE camera and not just use my iphone because these Nikon photos are much more like the REAL thing.
