09/03/08 - Well hello...long time no post! I seem to be running short of time since Violet started crawling all over the place. August was a busy month! We went to the lake, saw Grandma get married, met Cousin Corben and so much more! Mommy braved a trip to Spokane with out Daddy, and it took her 9 hours to drive home!

Violet turned 8 months...

Rule family trip to Lake Quinault, mommy just loved how my baby bum looked!

enjoying the sun by the lake! (thanks again everyone for everything!)

Grandma Kathy was Married on Aug. 16th (that is also happens to be my mommy and daddy's anniversary!!)

Violet just crashed in the 105 degree heat!

08/07/08 - Violet is crawling on all fours now!! She is oficially mobile!! The days of her scooting are gone, they only lasted a couple weeks! Plus, as I entered the livign room this morning to comfort her crying, what should I see to my surprise...but my little baby had pulled herself up on the couch, and was standing!! They really do grow up too fast! P.S. we just got back from a wonderful trip to Lake Quinault...will post pics soon!

this is from her pulling up last night...

07/23/08 -Violet turned 7 months old today! Here are some cell phone pics mommy found that are cute! Did Mommy mention, I'm "crawling" now...well, it's more of a scoot/army crawl. She will post a video soon! Mommy had a birthday yesterday, we had Gelatto!

07/14/08 -a trip to Costco with Cousin Tommy was fun, as well as my very first fair. Mommy and Daddy took me to Kent Cournicopia Days, where I promptly fell asleep during the parade, but was woken up by revving engines! What fun! Oh, don't forget to see me as I was chowing down on my daddy's breakfast, too. Don't forget to see full sized studio portraits here (mommy will stop posting that soon, she promises).
