Labor Day Vacation

So this upcoming semester is going to be pretty crazy and busy for Kurt. We wanted to take advantage of his last weekend before tests start coming. We originally planned to visit Harper's Ferry, West Virginia, but at the last minute (3 days before) we decided to go the Kitty Hawk, North Carolina. Thanks to our friend, Rachel, we were able to stay in a nice beach house with two other families for 3 days.



Dallas and Mason on Ocracoke Beach

Mary, Miles, Kylee and I on the ferry to Ocracoke (It was our first ferry ride and it was pretty fun)

Dallas brought a skim board and everyone tried it out

Kylee and I chillin on the beach
I loved our trip and plan to go next year when Kylee will be a year old.

Site Seeing

This last week one of my best friends, Hayley, from Rexburg, Idaho came out to visit us. She has been on a mission so this was the first opportunity to see her in two years. Kylee and I had a blast site seeing with her, even though Kylee was asleep for most of it. We both hope to see Hayley again real soon, maybe even for three months if she comes out here for an internship. (;) hint hint)

Museum of Natural History

Great Falls - I had all the hardwork, Kylee slept the whole time.

Hayley and Kurt's cousin, Brad. Thank you Brad again for being such a great tour guide.

We were told Kylee is now the youngest person to take a picture in this. I don't think she was too thrilled about that though.

The Three Amigos at Mount Vernon
(At this point, Kylee was hot and ready to be done)

World War II Monument

Like Mother, Like Daughter
(We were both mesmerized by the eagles above us at the monument)

Kylee's take on the Lincoln Memorial (She was more excited to eat)

In front of the White House

Baywatch Babe at 6 Weeks

This swimsuit was given to Kylee by her aunt (Kristy) and we have just been waiting to try it on her. It was raining outside so we couldn't head to the pool. Instead, we had our own pool party in the apartment. Hey, our bedding is blue so it could be water. :)

A little surprised by the whole experience

One Month Photo Shoot

Kylee just cannot get enough of the camera! Just kidding. A friend living out here for the summer is working at becoming a professional photographer and needed a newborn to experiment with, so Kylee decided she was up for the job.

This is my favorite picture (above)

One Month Old

Kylee is officially a month old now. Everyone always warns you that the time flies by so fast and that you need to enjoy every moment. The thing I have discovered: it is so true. I am asking myself where did the time go. There have not been many new developments other than she is starting to have more and longer alert periods and she loves to move her arms and legs all the time. But she is definitely changing and growing every day.

Photo Session

Here are the pictures finally that my friend Kacie took while Kylee was two weeks. Sorry that I have gotten so behind in posting; I have been a slacker. :)

First Sunday!!

Today was Kylee's first day at church. We only stayed for sacrament, but she did great; she slept through the whole thing without one cry. When we first arrived at church though she had a little surprise for both Kurt and I. She ended up throwing up her meal all over everything!! Herself, car seat, blanket, and even the church floor. Yucky!!




P.S. Thank you Diana for Kylee's first dress.
