Rice cereal! YUMMM!?!?

Rylea had her first taste of rice cereal! I don't think she liked it all that much but you be the judge. (Watch the whole video, the end is the funniest part)

I don't blame her for dry heaving! We both tasted it and it was TERRIBLE! It wasn't really the taste that was bad, it was the texture that got us. If you ever get the chance....don't try it :)

So much new stuff!

Well, I don't even know where to start!
How about with the start of September when we left Rylea overnight for the first time?!
We had decided to go to Wendover with some friends for the night, so we left her with Aarons family, and we were only gone for 14 hours but it felt like a lot longer! It wouldn't have been so hard but this was how we were going to get Rylea to take a bottle, (because none of our other attempts had really worked) so I'm just thinking the whole time that she is still going to refuse it and cry the whole time and I would come home to a very sad and starving baby....that thought made me fight back tears the entire time we were gone. BUT she took it for them, and without a protest! They said she was the BEST baby ever! They even took her to church with them and didn't have any problems! I wish I would have known she would be so easy for them and I could have relaxed and enjoyed myself a little more! Oh well.


We also went to the state fair in September, it was pretty fun, but Aaron and I both agreed it will be more fun when Rylea can do some of the stuff, like go down the big yellow slide :) Then maybe the small fortune we paid to get in and eat a corn dog will be more worth it!



          The following week we headed up to Snowbird for the day for Oktoberfest. There wasn't a whole lot to do but we took a picnic up and ate on the grass and walked around for a bit and afterwards we drove through the canyon some more to look at the changing colors but Rylea was ready to get home so we cut it a little short. It was pretty anyway and we managed to get a few pictures.

(Yes Rylea is wearing the same outfit she was wearing at the fair but I wanted her to get some wear out of it before it was too small)

And last...this last Tuesday Aaron had the day off and we thought it would be fun to go hang out in Park City for a while so we headed up in time to have lunch on Main Street and we had planned on walking around for a while but eventually it started raining pretty hard so we got in the car and drove over to the outlet mall to shop for a bit. I wanted Aaron to get some new clothes but I was the only that was finding anything I liked. I resisted most of the stuff I wanted but I did get a new swimsuit and dress at Tommy Bahama, and Aaron and I agreed that we WILL be going on vacation soon so I can wear this new suit! We're thinking Jamaica....?  So now I have to work on losing the last of the baby weight and start looking for some good deals on a trip! I'm so excited, but I wish we could afford to take a babysitter with us so we could take Rylea and also have alone time while there too.  Well here are some pictures from P.C.



OH and here's a picture of the new shirt Grandma Suz brought back for Rylea from Boston, it's only a little big, and another one from Grandma Suz visiting our Gymboree class today. Rylea really likes her class but I think I like getting to talk to other new moms and having a reason to get out of the house even more!
