Vegas and St. George!

Camryn and I headed south to Vegas for a few days to spend some time with my parents! It was my mom's birthday and my dad loves to watch BYU play in the tournament down there, so we decided to join. It was pretty low key (not much in Vegas for babies other than swimming!) but it was still very fun, and much warmer than Salt Lake! Sadly, I did not get any pictures with Grandma and Grandpa :( But we loved hanging out with them.

Camryn is now sitting in high chairs at restaurants and LOVING it! She reaches and grabs for anything and everything, so we gave her a garlic breadstick to munch on while we ate. She had garlic breath for the rest of the night, but she loved it :)

She is still loving sticking her feet in that big mouth of hers!

Matt came and got me Friday afternoon so we could spend some time in St. George with the Christensen's and Hickcox's! We had a great time laying in the sun, swimming, the guys got to play some golf, and all us girls ran in the Spectrum 10k Saturday morning! It was such a beautiful run down Snow Canyon, like a little mini St. George marathon :) I was a fan of being done after only 6 miles.

This girl LOVES to be in the water! She would sit in the little floatie and just chillax in the hot tub, it was so cute. She would stay in there all day if we let her!

On Sunday, Matt drove home but Camryn and I stayed in St. George for our next adventure! Amy Larsen and cute little Blake came down and we hung out for 6 more days! (Rough life right?)
Amy brought all these fun new toys, Camryn loved the walker since we don't have one! They could both push themselves backward...but not forward!
These girls finally notice each other and are actually playing together now! It was so much fun to watch them interact and share toys. We had a great time laying in the sun and swimming some more!
The babies in their diapers! They're going to be BFF's, we already decided :)
It was also really fun to see how different these two personalities are! They really are born with their own personality and it's really starting to shine now that they're 6+ months! Blake was a little angel all week, but Camryn was kind of having a rough time :( She was away from home for almost 2 weeks, and I think she was teething also. She just wanted to be in her bed with her music and back in her familiar surroundings.
Here's the girls in the tub! Not a very good picture but we tried SO many times to get them both looking at the camera, and this was the best we could do!

Blake was a little angel all week, but Camryn was kind of having a rough time :( She was away from home for almost 2 weeks, and I think she was teething also. She just wanted to be in her bed with her music and back in her familiar surroundings. Luckily, they both conked out for about half the drive home, and were happy about until we got to Bountiful.

We had so much fun hanging out with Amy and Blake, and we loved the warm St. George weather...especially now that it's snowing again! We need to go again soon :)
