Swimming

We're living with Clinton's brother(Allen) and sister-in-law(Alicia) in their house while we're here in Blackfoot. Allen, Alicia and their two girls will be moving to North Dakota. After they move, Clinton and I will house sit for them until the house sells or we move back to Rexburg in January. Rebecca has loved having her cousins to play with. It's so fun to have kids closer to her age to play with her. It has prompted her to start crawling so she can chase after them. She's still slow at the crawling but she's working on it.

One of the many great things about living in a house instead of an apartment is the fact that there's a backyard. A backyard with a little pool to swim in. Rebecca just loves the water. She loves to splash. ALOT.

The water was a bit cold. It took her a minute to get used to it.

Splashing around with cousin Adalyn. Cousin Brinley, who's 3 months older than Rebecca, was taking a nap and missed out on all the fun. 

Drying off before going inside.

Adalyn was making her laugh. Super cute!

Holy cow it's August. I just realized that today. Where did July go? I guess the days just disappeared in the chaos that encompassed July. So much has happened. Fourth of July, finals for Clinton, Andy(Clinton's brother)'s wedding, moving back to Blackfoot, getting situated in a new place (again), etc. Life has been crazy. But then again, what's life without a little bit of insanity?

On the Fourth of July, we went to JcPenneys to get some family pictures taken. Rebecca, who is normally a happy baby, decided that that would be the day to be grumpy. Of course. On the day I want to her smile and be happy and super cute. We got one picture where she looks like she's thinking about smiling. For all the other pictures she gave this blank stare. Not quite the look I was going for but it was going to have to do. At least she wasn't screaming. Afterwards, we went over to Griffin and Mackenzie(Clinton's old roommate and his wife)'s apartment for a BBQ. What's a Fourth of July without a BBQ? Then Rebecca decided to smile and be happy. Classic.

Griff and Mackenzie are having a baby in January. Rebecca played with some of the toys they've gotten for the new baby. Rebecca thought the JumperRoo was great.

The rest of the month was non-exciting. Finals were survived. The wedding was fabulous. We packed and moved back to Blackfoot. And here we are. Trying to not die from the heat.
