4 Months Old!

I can not believe how time flies. Maddie is 4 months old today! I swear she gets cuter every day. It's so fun to watch her discover new things. Yesterday I layed her on her back, and was in the bathroom getting ready, and I heard her doing her mad grunting voice. I was about to go out and get her when she started to happily coo. I peeked out and she had rolled on to her tummy. She's been trying to roll onto her tummy for a couple weeks now, but has been unable to figure out how to get her arm out of the way... I leave her for 5 mins and she does it- go figure. Now she's really got it down and is constantly practicing. I think I better get to baby proofing.... Fast!

Lost Brain Cells!

So I just got back from a week in Cali with my family. It was so much fun! I will post more about that later. Before I was a mom I would sometimes notice that "moms" could be a bit loopy at times. I just thought it was some weird coincidence that I knew so many loopy moms, but I now know the truth. It's called SLEEP DEPRIVATION!!!!!

I love to cook and last night I made some homemade fried rice and orange chicken. It was so yummy and I thought I was on such a roll with cooking so I decided to make some box brownies too. Easy right? Made 'em a hundred times. Wrong! Instead of the 1/4 cup of water it called for I added 1 1/2 cups? Why? I'd like to say because my sweet lil baby is possibly going thru a growth spurt or just trying to slowly kill every last brain cell I have by wanting to nurse every hour and a half or 2 if I'm lucky, and I had to hold her non-stop the entire day ( I think she got a little too used to my fam holding her non-stop. Jen, can you come up sooner please!!!)

I drove to CA with my friend Kimmy. I left my car at her house. So as we're on our way back home I realize I have no idea where the car keys are. I look thru everything. I must've had 10 bags. So today I call my mom and I'm making her look thru the entire house for them because they HAVE to be there. When she's exhausted all the spots they could be she says, "Kristin are you sure you don't have them." What a silly ? Of course I'm sure, but I'll look thru everything ONE more time. I am so embarrassed to say I had them the whole time. And don't ask me to bring a salad right Trish!!! Ha ha! Oh and please don't tell Sterling I found my keys... He might be a little upset that he had to drive to Orem to bring me the spare. Some day I'll get to sleep again right???

Knee Test

Since I've been feeling good after my latest knee drama I thought I would give the ol' knee a test. Less then 2 1/2 months ago I had my acl replaced (thanks dead dude who donated your tendons) and a broken femur fixed. I was really worried that things would be pretty ruff, crunchy, etc, but so far they have been good. ...So I climbed the hill behind my house.

It was a fun little hike. I camped at the top, had a fire, and listened to the jazz game on my Shower Buddy Radio. Here are some pics.I still can't believe I live this close to cool stuff and good views.

My Camp.

Warm toes.
