Thumb sucker!

Since day one Savannah has been a thumb sucker!

And she's still a thumb sucker!

She's discovered her hands! Here's a video of her trying to get her thumb in her mouth, she has to concentrate really hard!

First "Swim"

Yesterday we lathered Savannah up with some heavy duty sunblock and went for a dip! The water was slightly colder than her bath water and she didn't quite know what to make of it. At first she would cry if she wasn't held closely to me, then after a little while she warmed up, until the dog decided to join us...thanks to Dad (Chris)! But overall she seemed to enjoy it. (In the last picture she was "talking" to me)

Kids

This is why kids shouldn't have kids...She was sound asleep...

And her little toes where just calling my name...

Of course I couldn't resist...SO I painted them!

"Talking"

Savannah and I went to a store around the corner that has gently used kids things. I ended up getting a few things...and the best purchase was a mobile for $7. She LOVES it. Here's a video of her talking to it. (Sorry its fuzzy, I'm not sure why or what I did...)

sMiLeS!

Savannah is smiling a lot these days! She almost ALWAYS wakes up with a smile on her face, which is good because I'm not a morning person and if she wasn't so stinkin' cute when she smiles I would have a lot harder time.

Running

I went running yesterday...for the first time since...well probably since before I was pregnant! It felt REALLY weird! I didn't like the feeling of my fat jiggling around as I ran (thus the picture of the elephant running). However, I was really proud of myself at how far I was able to go without stopping and not liking the feeling made me more motivated to get in shape so that running feels good again. The problem was once I stopped I was exhausted and still had to get home some how... plus it was raining so my clothes got all wet and heavy which only added to the effort.
I woke up this morning and felt like I could barely move my legs. Muscles I forgot were there ached! Walking down the stairs proved interesting, but all in all it wasn't too bad and despite the fact that I felt like an elephant running it felt good to be able to run again!

Baby Noises!

Oh the joys of baby noises! They always seem to come out at just the WRONG time. Two weeks ago a sweet lady in my ward wanted to hold Savannah. A couple of seconds after I passed Savannah off to her Savannah let out a nice loud fart and preceded to poop…Then this last Sunday RIGHT smack in the middle of the Sacrament meeting she burps so loud more than half the congregation heard…afterwards one of the girls in my ward asked if it was Savannah she heard burp (she was sitting across the room!!!) and James told me he didn’t know babies could burp that loud.

Blogging!

SO...I'm still trying to figure this silly thing out! Its not very cute...but someday maybe *sighs*. Then I look at Dani's and think, maybe I should just let her do it so it would be cute, BUT I'm determined to figure this dang thing out!

Savannah

Kristin and I took pictures of Savannah and had a really fun time playing around with it! I think they turned out pretty good, let me know what you think!
