Owen's 34th Birthday

HAPPY BIRTHDAY OWEN!!!

I had a little get together at the house with family and friends for Owen's birthday. We had hamburgers and cake (that I made)

Owen like batman...The cake taste really good...I am really enjoying decorating cakes

Bought him his favorite cologne...Aqua de Gio

New iPod

I am so excited about my new iPod. It's about an inch and a half all around and it's 16GB. It's a touch screen. I can upload music (obviously), photos, videos and listen to FM radio.
I had my previous iPod for about 5 years and it finally died on my about a week ago. I can't wait to use my new toy the next time I go to the gym.
I love my iPod.

A Day At The Beach

We went to the Aliso State Beach (it's by Laguna Beach) for a church activity. This was our first time at the beach this summer and Savannah's first time at the beach. I thought she was going to cry or not want to touch the sand, but I was proven wrong.
As soon as we got there I sat her on the sand and she started playing with it like she has been doing it for years. I took her to the water and at first she didn't want me to put her down. The waves were huge and the water was very cold (probably high 68 degrees). When the waves hit us she started laughing.
We went back to playing with the sand. Than she comes and takes my hand and leads me to the water. She held my hands while she walked backwards to the water.
I am going to have to buy her some beach toys and go to the beach more often before summer is over.

August 11 2011= 4 Years Anniversary

I can't believe that we are on our 4th year of marriage. I am so blessed to have Owen as my husband and the father of Savannah. He helps me be better, let's me be my own person and helps me grow spiritually. I love being married to him. Life is so easy when you have a husband that helps you when you most needed. I can't wait to have more children with him and grow old with him.

I love you hubby, you are the best thing that has happened to me. xoxoxo

For our anniversary he bought me flowers and we went to eat at a restaurant called Bucca di Beppo. It's Italian food. It's so good.

Random Pictures

Savannah was trying to put her shirt on, but she had no luck

This is our recycling trash bin. Everything in this trash bin is clean but I finally decided to put it in the garage because she kept getting into it.

Trying to stand on her toys

Brushing her teeth. She just chews on the toothbrush

Baby Powder

This is what happens when you leave baby in her room with baby powder that was not properly closed.
The only upside about this was that her room smelled really good.

4TH OF JULY

For the 4 of July we went to a friend's family house. We ate and the kids did some fireworks.
Savannah wasn't very thrilled about the fireworks.

Look at her faces, she was so scared

This is the outfit I bought her. Very patriot

Happy Father's Day My Dear Hubby

Father's Day fell on Stake Conference this year. I didn't go because Savannah was still sleeping and I hate waking her up. So Owen went by himself. When he got home, he had a gift waiting for him

I am so bless to have Owen as the father of our baby. He is so involved and so helpful. Savannah gets so happy when daddy gets home. It reminds me of the Primary song, "I'm so glad when daddy comes, glad as I can be..."
Thanks Owen for being an awesome father

Savannah's 1st Year Pictures

I had to take 2 sets of pictures for Savannah's 1st year. A friend of mine told me of this place called Picture People, so I wanted to try them out. When we got there she was very happy until the guy who was taking her pictures came out. All she wanted to do was be with me and if I left her she would start crying. I was very bummed.
So I decided to take pictures with a friend from our ward and those are the ones you see below. Much better.

This is my favorite

Playing with my friends cell phone. She loves cell phones

Making a Mess with Yogurt

After Savannah was done eating dinner, I was trying to give her some yogurt for desert. By the way she loves it.
While I was feeding her, I decided to give her the bowl that still had some yogurt left to see what she will do.
These next few pictures explain it all

Savannah's New Car Seat

I finally gave in and changed her infant car seat...She is a small girl and probably would have been able to ride in her infant seat for about another month.
I bought her new car seat about 2 months ago, but it just stayed in the box until this past Monday (May 9th)
However, she rides rear facing.

Savannah Just Being Savannah

Savannah getting into everything. She is so activate, but I wouldn't have it any other way

Happy in Her Swing

This is the swing that Grandma and Grandpa Smith bought Savannah for her birthday...She loves it and so do I...When she is being fussy, I just put her in her swing and she is a happy baby.
She just chills...She can last up to an hour in her swing, just enjoying the ride.

Savannah's 1 Year Check Up

Savvy had her 1 year check up the day after her birthday...She is kind of small, I think, for her age. Or it might just be that I am surrounded by bigger babies.

Height 28.75
Weight 21 lb 1.4oz
HC 17.99"

But she is a healthy and very activate baby.

Sorry It's Been So Long

I know it's been a while since my last post (October 29th). I just have been so busy. I started working for the Gas Co as a representative towards the end of January. So it makes it really hard to come home and get on the computer, because I rather come home and spend time with my baby. I am going to try to remember everything that has happened since November.

November 2010
Thanksgiving came and went. Nothing exciting there.

December 2010

Savannah's 1st Christmas. We celebrated Christmas Eve with my family at our house. And Christmas Day we had breakfast and opened gifts at the Smith's home. We went to see Christmas light in Upland, we are trying to make it a tradition. We also took our family pictures for Christmas.

We did take Savannah but she slept in her stroller thru the whole thing. Just like she did for the pumpkin path. Hopefully this year she will stay awake

CHRISTMAS EVE FEAST

Savannah opening her 1st gift ever. She was more amazed by the paper than her gift. Of course, they always are.

I made this star with pictures of all the grandkids.

January 2011
I started working for Southern California Gas Co.

February 2011
I had planned to do something special for Valentine. I wanted to do make diner and desert all red, for example, spaghetti and red velvet cake. But I got home to late from work and I was too tired.

March 2011
I turned 28 years old. We didn't do much on my birthday, but the Sunday before we celebrated with my family at my sister's new house.

April 2011
Savannah turned 1. I couldn't believe how fast it came. We had a little party for her. It was a ladybug theme. And the day after her party (April 17) she took a some steps. As of today she is still taking steps, but after 4 or 5 she falls on her butt. The other day she was walking towards the entertainment center and fell forward, hit her head on one of the drawers. But she didn't cry.

I decorated her cake.

I decorated the tables with a red cloth and made black circles so it can look like a ladybug.

Savannah's first taste of sweet.

I don't like giving her sweets at all, I don't see the point in it. At this age she doesn't know the difference, so why offer.
