I ♥ NYC

Olivia and I were able to go to the big city of New York. We had a great time. Olivia had a lot to take in from the moment we arrived and I think she enjoyed her time in the Big Apple.

Here she is checking out the busy streets and all those tall buildings!

Olivia's first time on the Subway.

Eating at a Korean restaurant in the
spirit of Chris... although we had a
great time we missed Daddy

Walking the streets of the city









Poor Olivia was exhausted so
we took a break at Bryant Park -
(hoping to spot a celebrity during fashion week-- which we didn't.) Although I did see all kinds of interesting people.

Shopping at H & M .... that was
my favorite part!!

A big thanks to Curtis for Sharing his toys, books and food! He was such a good sport with little miss Olivia in his shadow every waking moment!

And a HUGE thanks to Nicole for all her hospitality and willingness to have us all week!! We had a great time with you both. Thanks for everything you do!

Labor Day Weekend

We had a great Labor Day Weekend. It was a busy, fun filled few days with Family and Friends. Here is our documented weekend.

Swiss Days in Midway!! I can hardly wait 'til next year!


Family BBQ up American Fork Canyon







A day at the pool...Olivia's first time down the slide!



Playing with Cooper -- Learning that dogs are a (wo)man's best friend!

Vacation in the Sun

Last week we went to McCall, ID to Great Grandpa Walker's cabin. It was my first time and it was great! I loved playing on the beach with my umbrella and raft. I also liked the hike we went on, riding bikes, and playing with cousins. The weather was nice and we had a fun time as you can tell by the pictures below.

I'm not quite walking yet, so my daddy carried me on his back. I gave him a thank you hug.

Mommy and I had a fun time playing in the water together.

It was fun riding on the boat. I got to see mommy wake board and daddy ski. Maybe when I'm older I will get to ski and wake board too!!

Riding in style...

McCall is a very pretty place. Daddy says he's been going to McCall ever since he was my age. That's a long time cause he's old.

It was Great Grandpa Walker's 80'th birthday so at the end of the week we had a family reunion with all of daddy's cousins, aunts and uncles. It was fun to meet all my relatives. I think there was like 65 people there.

Chasing Mommy!

Olivia has mastered crawling and has just learned how to clap her hands. It's funny how much these little things are such big milestones! Next on the list.... waving bye-bye. Stay tuned!

Summer Fun

Chris and I made it up to Park City a few weeks ago and made it a night out on the town. We had a great dinner and then headed up to the Alpine Slides and the Alpine Coaster. We had a blast!
I would recommend both to anyone but if for some reason you could only do one... do the Coaster...It is much, much faster!

The Coaster was so much fun. I think that I could of done that
over and over at least a dozen times!

Happy late 4th of July!

On the 4th of July, mommy and daddy let me stay up way past my bedtime so I could see fireworks for the first time. It was really fun! Daddy held me close so I wouldn't get scared. We had a fun 4th of July with a BBQ and time spent with family. I hope you all had a good 4th too.

In other news, I was getting tired of just sitting on my bum and looking at cool objects to put in my mouth from a distance so I figured out how to move my arms with my legs at the same time and crawl over to the things that mommy and daddy don't want me to put in my mouth. I don't know if Mommy is happy or mad that I'm mobile now. As you can tell by the second picture, sometimes I don't think she wants me to move around too much!

Since it's now officially summer I've been trying to work on my tan by getting out to the pool and going on walks with mommy. I'm usually doused with sunscreen and wearing a hat so I don't catch too many rays but I love being outside.

I hope you are all well and I hope to see you all soon. I'll leave you with one of my new favorite things to do. Stick my tongue out for pictures. I'm so funny!!
