7 Months Old and Growing So Fast!

Jayna is 7 months old now and is still growing and changing everyday. She is doing so well. I cannot believe it was 7 months ago that we were worried she would not make it here safely. We feel so lucky and blessed that she has progressed with no growth or development set backs due to being born 3 weeks early. She is a sharp little cookie with tons of personality and we cannot imagine life without her. Friends keep asking us if they can babysit, but we are not sick of her yet. Ryan and I were married for 5 years before having her so we jokingly tell them we had her because we were tired of looking at each other. She is our little "Berry" and we love her. Here are some recent pictures of her.



Jayna is rolling and squirming everywhere! Sometimes she gets herself into some pretty tight corners like under the bed or under the couch.



She is a good little shopper, but sometimes she just can't keep up with the big girls.



After getting ready for church she plays in her highchair with her new little toy tiger Grandma sent her for Halloween.



I always make pumpkin cookies in October and November so we decided to let Jayna have a seasonal treat. I figured it was just like her baby food since it was pure pumpkin. She really liked it too.



Jayna got her first little cold a month ago so I thought I would play a baby einstein movie for her. She only made it through the intro.



Along with pina coladas and getting caught in the rain Jayna loves to play with her dog Red.

My Dad Has Been Leading A Double Life

Apparently my Dad has been leading a double life come to find out. While he is not working as the General Manager of Freightliner Arizona or at home with my Mom and Brother he has been moonlighting as the head coach for the Green Bay Packers and has been keeping it a secret from all of us. While Ryan and I were out to dinner with our friend Jared he asked me if my Dad got mistaken for any one famous. I told him no and he said that he thought my Dad looked like the Green Bay Packers head coach. As he was pulling up a picture on his phone I was trying to think of what courteous response I would give when I looked at the picture and it looked nothing like my Dad. Jared has only seen him twice in somewhat brief circumstances. When he showed me the picture above I just about died and my only response was, "That's my Dad". The funniest thing about all this is that for years when we lived in Granite Bay and Craig played football at Granite Bay High-School my Dad wore the High-School hats and shirts all the time, which look just like the Green Bay logo. It bugged him all the time when he was out and about because people would always think he was a Green Bay fan and would want to talk to him about it, or they would shout out "Go Green Bay" when they would walk by.



I am going to try to find a better picture of my Dad because I know my Mom has to have one of him in his Granite Bay clothes at one of the boys games. So for now this badly photoshopped picture of my parents on vacation will have to do (sorry Mom).



That same night I called home and had Mark look up the same picture on line and he thought it was ridiculous. He told my Dad to come in and "meet himself" and my Dad thought for a quick second that it was himself at a Granite Bay game. So needless to say we have a Halloween costume idea for my Dad this year.
