Evva...

you walked today. And I cried because you're growing up. I love you!

Try it!

So when we moved to Riverton Rob and I decided that we would really try to go out of our way to try some local places to find some good eats. This was one of the first and it's been a favorite in our family ever since. We seriously go probably once a week. This place is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! Rob's favorite is the Raspberry Torte and mine is the Coconut Cream. But I had a sugar cookie there the other day and my, oh my! If you're a soft yummy sugar cookie kind of person, RUN. They are just off the 12300 S exit to the west, I mean just off the exit! Like you get off, go 1 block west and you're there! Stop in, get a doughnut, get back in your car, go 1 block east and BAM! you're back on the freeway! It's in the complex with pictureline. They are such a cute little place and oh so tasty! I'm trying to think of a way that I could get them to make a birthday cake out of doughnuts...if you have any ideas let me know! See the heaven here.

p.s. any good local places around here that you love? Let us know for real! We sometimes get a little nervous about places if we haven't heard anything about it.

Such a helper...

Evva, you are trying to be such a helper lately. That's what I call it at least. In reality, you're mostly being curious. And you're getting quick! I open a door and there you are, wanting to see what I'm getting into. But you're getting really big.

You are standing and took your first step yesterday. Twice! What!? I swear you are going to be getting out of your crib before I know it! Here you are, my big girl using your new skill to see what's in the cupboard.

Oh, and you LOVE books! You love to turn the pages, and if I take to long reading the page, you just turns it for me. I LOVE it! You are also loving to clear everything off, thus, the decorations on my coffee table are now gone. Which allows for more banging of pretty much anything you can get her hands on. This little love has resulted in our coffee table looking like it has been dropped on a gravel road. You also love to be pulled around in these! Loves it! You giggle and laugh so hard. You have a permanent grin on you face when daddy pulls you. We are loving you so much and are so excited that you are trying so hard to talk. I LOVE the way your little lips form as they try to make sounds.

Yesterday's project

Worked on this yesterday to put above my kitchen sink. LOVE IT THERE!

Then last night we hung out at Ikea for a little bit, I seriously love that place. It kind of gets my creative juices flowing! Rob got a new desk chair that he loves, so that is a plus. I picked up my share from there a few days ago. I got some awesome deals that perhaps I will show later.

In other news, after a long hard decision I have decided that I need to give up my job in Perry, and try to find something here in SLC. I have been blessed with a great opportunity to work at an office down in Orem 1 day/week and I think it will be a great experience. It was definitely hard to leave my Wahlen office, they were so great to me there and it was an office I truly believe in. They are ethical, and truly care about giving the patient the best treatment. So if you're in the BC, or even Ogden or Logan area and need a good dentist, go to them! I recommend them HANDS DOWN! From a professional and personal stand point. So as I move on, it's hard and a little scary stepping into the unknown, but I know this is what I need to do and in the end everything will work out.

P.S. How about Sandra Bullock and her Academy Award? Just love her!
