Lindsey is doing great; she is getting bigger and bigger every day. She started eating baby cereal and oatmeal, she prefers oatmeal. She has tried several different foods over the last month starting with fruits eating bananas, applesauce, peaches, and pears. She has also tried a variety of vegetables starting with Sweet potatoes, carrots, peas, green beans and squash. She is not crazy about carrots, peas or green beans at all I would have to say those are her least favorite foods right now. Lindsey just turned 6 months as of last week; I can't get over how fast time is just flying by.
Rich, Lindsey, Howie, Pat, Cody, Puppet (Pat and Howie’s dog) and I went to Christopher Creek a few weekends ago, it is about 2 hours north of us. We rented a small cabin by the Creek. It was absolutely beautiful, the weather was awesome. It was in the high 80’s during the day and went down to the 50’s at night. We took our quads and went riding during the day, it was so much fun.
Lindsey and I took our first trip to Las Vegas to visit Grandma Vegas, Grandpa Willy and Uncle Sam for his High School graduation. Rich could not get the time off work so us girls took a plane to go visit. Lindsey was such an awesome baby to travel with. On our visit Aunt Rita felt Lindsey's tooth for the first time coming though on the bottom. Now both bottom teeth are through. We had a great time in Vegas; we are all very proud of Sam as he walked up and received his High School diploma. My little brother is all grown up now and moving on to the next phase of his life. Grandma Vegas and Grandpa Willy took turns watching Lindsey while mommy went out to play at the casino.......but I should of just stayed home I won a few dollars at the Strip and then ended up leaving a LOSER..... :-( but had fun. We left Saturday 6/14 at around 7:00pm that was a long flight home, Lindsey's gums were hurting as we arrived in Phoenix but otherwise she was the perfect baby to travel with.
For Rich's first Father's Day we drove to Phoenix and went to a place that had all boys toys, boats, quads, nice expensive cars and trucks, trailers, you name it they had it. Then we got free tickets to the Diamondbacks Baseball game which we went to as well for about an hour. Rich carried Lindsey around the whole day, his arms got bigger from just holding her. Then we went over to Grandma Pat and Grandpa Howie's house for dinner and dessert. It was a very nice day.
Rich is very busy with work and going to the gym, he is a hard working man who provides well for his family. I'm still working from home in the mornings for Honeywell taking customer calls. I'm in the processed of being trained on taking orders for customer, very excited about that. The weather hear sucks…to be honest. Today was 110 degrees it is very hot and gross and some day’s I’m not sure as to why I’m still living in Arizona. But I do love it here and don’t plan on moving any time soon.
I have also updated our online photo gallery on picasa. Please check out our newest pictures of Lindsey and our last couple of trips. We love and miss you all very much. Take care and talk with you soon.
Love,
Chantelle, Richard, Lindsey and Cody
