The sneaky little girl

You know somethings up when things get quiet. I was sitting at the computer desk checking my e-mail for the day while Afton played with the tupperware in the kitchen. She was making all sorts of noise then things got quiet... I knew something was up. Sure enough she had found a bag of chocolate chips. I laughed so hard when I turned the corner because she quickly started shoving as many in her mouth as she could knowing I was going to take them away. The little sneaky thing!

Swim lessons

This summer in San Diego a friend, Suzy Nelson, and I team taught swim lessons. I'm so sad that I did not get more pictures! We taught a baby class together and then split up for the second half of the hour and taught 2 levels of 2-5 year olds. I loved it. It was so rewarding on the last day to see how much all the kids had improved from the beginning of the summer. They were such sweet kids! I also loved spending time with the parents and getting closer to some of the other moms in the ward. Here's a picture of some of the baby swim class participants.


By the end of the summer all of the babys loved the water and being dunked. They could blow bubbles and jump in. They could kick their legs and would relax in the water on their backs. They could scoop their hands in the water to move their bodies forward! It was so exciting to see the difference from the first day were a lot of them cried. :)

Have you missed us?

It's been a long time since we've posted. We've been up to a lot and had a lot of changes going on. We are in the process of moving back to Fresno. Logan is finishing up his last week of work in San Diego and I've been a single working mom while he's been down there. I got a job working for Clovis Unified with the Autism program. I love my job but miss my little Afton girl while I'm working. Though she doesn't seem to miss me as much as I miss her. Logan has been able to come up off and on and has been Mr. Mom while he's here. She loves spending time with her daddy. We're behind on a lot of posts because after I get home from work everyday, play, feed, bath,and nurse Afton, I am exhausted. But I am determined to catch up.... so be checking up. :)

This posts for Aunt Ashlee

Your favorite Afton faces captured....

First tooth at 10 months

or more like first teeth at 10 months. She has three teeth coming in all at once and surprisingly she's still a very very good baby!

Bottom two teeth coming in...

And a top side incisor... or canine. Weird that it's not her front tooth on top. We we're making her pretty mad trying to take pictures of her teeth.

Our happy girl.... now with teeth! :)

So many of Afton's pictures look like this...

Slow down your wearing me out! I need a faster camera!

We Heart the Beach!

Can you tell!?
