Carla's Visit




So my best friend came into town with her daughter Payten and stayed with us. It was great to see her again. But I think Curtis was a little over-whelmed...he made some comment about not understanding how someone would want polygamy....so I am guessing having a toddler, an infant, his wife, and a pregnant woman at his house was a little much! hah aa

But things have been great for us. Lucy is really smiling and cooing now. But the crazy thing is that Lucy rolled over on her side the other day and has done it about 4 or 5 times. So basically we think our child is a genius! Curtis has been so proud that he has been trying to do excercises with her to help her start crawling.


Okay now this is just cute!

Lucy's First Zoo Trip

Yea I know, Lucy isn't old enough to even know she is at the zoo, but my best friend Carla Mills (Spadafora) was in town visiting and we took her daughter Payten to the zoo, which she loved, and I documented the event. We had a great time hanging out and since it was in the middle of the day and it was started to get cold no one was really there and the animals were all really active and fun to watch.



But the most interesting part of it was on the drive home. Carla and I were talking and all of the sudden it sounded like a window was open. We both look around too see which window and then I hear the door alarm. We look back and Payten apparently has figured out how to open car doors and had popped it open while we were driving on the freeway!!! We freaked out and pulled over. Poor Payten knew something bad had happened and was nervouse she was going to get into trouble. But it was all good.....scary.... but all okay.



But now we know that our car has child-proof locks :)






The coolest part of the zoo too was us feeding the giraffe. Payten went crazy for it and what can I say.... I LOVED IT TOO!!!!!


We also had fun with Carla and Payten. On Sunday Payten was getting board so Curtis and I made a pretty cool fort that Payten played in.

Lucy's Favorate Sleeping Position

So Lucy sleeps....well let just say... ALOT! And usually we wrap her up all nice and tight cause we don't want her waking her self up by smackin herself in the face...you know not to best way to sleep :) And well she gets out sometimes and breaks free and its just a funny cute sight to see!

Offically Lucy Diane Rappleye

Well Lucy is finally lejit....we blessed her this last sunday and it was great. Curtis's parents were in town for it and Jenn and Josh (Curtis's sister and bro-in-law) drove up for it. It was cool to have the family together. The blessing was great and Curtis did a great job. After the blessing we all went over to the hotel where his family was staying were we had a fun lunch with everyone there. It was great to see everyone and thanks for everyone who came!
