Time to catch up



Wow, these last 3 months have just gone by! We've been busy with visiting Idaho and our families to vacation. But things have been good here. We've spent a lot of time at a water park here in Great falls. Which is nice b/c Brynn has all the control she wants when we go there. It's really geared towards little kids and it's great b/c I don't have to worry about her drowning, just about her freezing b/c she's soaked and won't come warm up! She is such a water bug.

The first week of July we (Brynn and I) went camping with my family, Tom was in Alaska fishing but wanted to be there with us. We had a really good time. Brynn had a difficult time with getting dirty. She hated falling down and getting her hands dirty and cried until someone picked her up off the ground(hence the dirty face). But loved being able to roam. THe terrain was a little rough for her but by the 3rd day she was walking around pretty well. She was overall a good baby except when it came time to go to bed or for naps. The only way I could get her to sleep was if we went on a 4-wheeler ride, which she loved!
For the 4th we spent it with Toms family which was fun. We had a BBQ and watched fireworks afterwards. Brynn couldn't get enough of her cousin Parker and enjoyed giving him loves and kisses.

This past weekend we went to Holter lake about an hour away from us to jet-ski. Brynn looks so darn cute in her lifejacket but had a hard time wearing it. I think it made her too top heavy and she had a difficult time walking around in it. The lake was warm but not one I would care to go back to. Instead of sand there were pebbles which hurt to walk on but we still had a good time. Until the weather took a turn and we had to pack up and leave. But we enjoyed being together as a family

Unfortunatley I can't upload any of my new pictures from my camera for some reason which is very irritating since I havent blogged for a while now. so I'm afraid with my computor illiterate skills, and that of Tom's it will be a while before I can figure this thing out. Why can't it be so much easier with computors!? But we are all doing well. Brynn is growing like a weed and is increasing her vocab. She now has bye-bye down and waves, says tain-too, and is little miss independent. Loves eating watermellon (new to her but loves it), jibber-jabbering all day, tries to dress herself in my clothes or shoes, and is just an overall joy to Tom and I.

We are both doing well, Tom is still working for a dentist here in Great Falls until we find a practice. I'm working at a local hospital here and its going ok. Although I'd rather be home most of the time. But while we are here in Montana we are getting the most out of it. Until I figure this dumb thing out with the computor, we are all doing great and love all of our friends out there. The Bigelows
