I can never get a video of her going to standing position she is already up by the time I get the camera.

Once again time has flown. I looked at the last time I posted and couldn't believe how long ago it was. We are now in St. George, UT. This by far was one of the worst moves we have had. It all started when Bry got a flat tire in the U-haul a couple hours outside of St. George. We actually had a lot of help moving in, which was a good thing and thanks again to all those who helped. Once we got moved in we found out that our futon and a lamp was broken. A couple days after we got moved in we started having trouble with the electricity. We lost it completely and had to stay at my brother-in-laws, not because of no electricity, but because we didn't have any air conditioning and it was in the 100's outside. When we came back to see what had happened to the electricity they first told us that it would take a couple days to fix. Then we were told that the part they needed wouldn't come for a coupe weeks and they wanted us to move to a different apartment. Then a little while later they said oh we found the part and can have it fixed tomorrow. So we lost 2 or 3 days of unpacking. Because of this set back we didn't get as much unpacking done as we wanted to because Bry had to study for one of his big tests to end the third year. Couple weeks later he drove to Grand Junction, Co to take this test. (we have not gotten results back.) He also started his forth year.
So that is the story of our move. Since then I really haven't unpacked. It seems that something is always going on. We have a pool here at our apartments and so we have gone swimming. E. absolutely loves the water. We have gone to story time, picked peaches at the welfare farm, the county fair and this last weekend we went to Richfield for a family reunion. It was a lot of fun. E. loved getting all the attention and seeing all her cousins. Bry and I also got to go golfing. It was very interesting. None of us had played since the last family reunion. We still had a good time. Soon Bry will be going to do a rotation in Grand Junction and my parents will be visiting me here while he is gone away.
E. is growing very fast. She is getting where she wants to fast and she loves to climb up anything that she possibly can. She likes to babble and if you are talking to long or if it is quiet for to long she will bring the attention back to her. Church has been very interesting. I feel bad for those who sit next to us because sometimes she can be very loud. Over all she still is a really good baby. She has to cutest laugh and she is developing a personality. She likes to play with anything but her toys and when she eats I keep a wet rag to wipe her face and if it is on her tray she picks it up and throws it on the ground. She does not like the wet rag. She has been so much fun, we are blessed to have her in our lives.
Many were surprised that we moved, well just to let you all know we are only her for one year and will be moving again. I don't know where at this time but we will be moving. After that we will be there for at least three years and after that who knows. I hope to update more often but as you can see we are go, go, go. I have posted pictures so go to the next post to see them.

It is amazing how time flies. Two weekend ago I said that I was going to update my blog and then I said the same thing this last weekend. So finally I am doing it. We are doing great. Bry has started his last rotation for 3rd year, I am making plans for us to move and E. is growing so fast.
Bry has four weeks left and then we make a trip back to Iowa for him to do a week of schooling there. E and I have decided to join him, So if anyone is around let me know I would love to see you. It will be the second week in July.
E. has reached many milestones since I have last written. We have started her on rice cereal. She has had a bunch of nights that she slept from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m. She has also started to army crawl. We have to keep an eye on her. I remember there was a time she hated being on her stomach. She would cry every time I put her on it and now when I put her down on her back she goes straight to her stomach. She also laughs a lot more. It is so much fun to watch her and play with her. She also went swimming for the first time. They had a free swimming morning for kids 5 years and younger. So I broke down and bought her a bathing suit. I went in with her and Bry took pictures. I thought she would only last 15 -20min. but she last longer than an hour. She loved it. I will post pictures in my next post.
I think this is the best part of being a mom is seeing all the first she does. It is so fun to watch her experience the world and see her just stare and want to learn of new things. One of the funniest things, I think she does is blow zubbers or some call them raspberries. Bry and I do it to her all the time and one day she decided to copy us. At first I thought she was just trying to blow bubbles then one day when I was nursing her she was drinking then she would blow and then start drinking and then she would blow again. I couldn't help but laugh. She also does it on her hand and sometimes on our faces. It is just so cute.
As for me I love staying at home and loving it more when Bry has time to go and do things with us. We are trying to do last min. fun things before we go. We decided to go out to Martins Cove one last time. We took E up in her stroller. I love my stroller. It was quiet the walk on dirt but my stroller has no problems. It was nice to go one more time. We went to a fall that is up against the mountain. We tried out her caring pack but I think she is a little small for it still. We picked a good time to go to the fall because all the snow was melting. Now that the weather is getting nicer we try to go on as many walks as we can.
We are only going to be in Casper for two more months and then we are off again. I will let everyone know where when we are ready to move and have some place to move into. Until then we will be continuing to be busy.
