Five Months

My sweet baby boy turned 5 months old a couple of days ago. (I know, I kinda skipped the 4 month photo shoot, whoops!) Boy, has time flown by these last few months. I feel like it was last week that I delivered him in the hospital. Life has changed so much for the better now that Charlie is here. He has gotten so big! Charlie can now smile, laugh, roll over, sit (almost), and play! I love it! I feel like he knows who I am now and that he knows his name. I love that I get to spend all day everyday with this little booger. He is so sweet and handsome and looks just like his Father, whom I love dearly.

In this month's photo shoot, Charlie is sporting his new onsie that my sister-in-law, Jen, made for him. It's got the state of Utah with a heart on it. I love it! He is also lying on his new quilt that my friend, Marycatherine's Mother, Julie, made for Charlie. I love it too! Thanks guys for the new stuff!

Summer 2013

 This summer started off right with a trip to California with Chris' family. We stayed in a hotel on Huntington Beach and visited Disneyland a few times! It was so much fun and a much needed vacation! We spent 4th of July on the beach too! It was a blast!

 Even Charlie enjoyed himself

 Back in Provo, my amazing little sister, Elyse, come to visit for Camp Utah! She stayed with me for a whole week! One night, we went to Nickel City, her favorite. She even won jackpot, 1,000 tickets!

 We also went to Comedy Sportz. It was hilarious!

 Chris and I took this beautiful picture at our friend's Josh Pratt's wedding in Alta, Utah

 Chas and I hiked up to Stewart Falls with family.

 Vinny loves his cousin

 Very first picture I took at Deep Creek Lake. I spent 3 entire weeks at the lake with my family in Maryland. It was so much fun! (except Chris wasn't there, boo.)

 Pizza night - we like 'em extra large

 Garrett County Fair!

Adam used $50 in quarters to try and win $100. Long story short: he did not win.

 Richards' Challenge #8

 My team won of course. In case you are wondering what this is, every year, my huge family splits into 2 teams and does lots of little battles/competitions against each other and the team that wins the most competitions wins!

And that's all my iphone has to say about that.

I'm so sad this summer is going to a close! I feel like it just started! The summer months are my favorite time of the year, spent with lots of friends and family. I sure wish Chris could have gotten more time off from work this summer. 4 days is not enough! I need more! Haha, well I hope your summer was as good as mine was. It probably wasn't, no offense.
