Lots of pictures

This post is A LOT of pictures...because I haven't posted in a LONG time.

We had Mallory's 1 year check up. Here are her stats:
Height: 29inches which is the 25%
Weight 19 lbs 5 oz which is 10-25%
She is right on track. Last week I took her to the dr because she was running a 102 temp. She has strep throat again. So we got an antibiotic and she is doing much better. She still has about 5 days left of the medicine so I'll feel much better after she has taken it all.

A couple of weeks ago (June 9th) we went to my cousin Amy's baby shower. She is having a boy Elijah in the middle of August. Here are some pictures from the shower.
The shower was at Vadsana's house and she just had a little girl. Mallory thought she would try out the vibrator chair. She was lounging for quite a while.




















After the shower we went to Amy and Eric's house to hang out. Here is Aunt Karen (Amy's mom), Amy and Holly with Mallory















Prego Amy. She looks so cute. I just want to rub her belly all the time.




















About two weeks ago I met Megan and Oliver at the community center for a swim. We had a great time despite the cold water.

Father's day weekend we went to Rolla to visit Josh's dad. He bought a new boat so we got to go on the river. It was Mallory's 1st time on the river.
Here she is in her life jacket. It fit her pretty good but she couldn't sit down w/out her head almost popping off.















Enjoying the river in her floaty















Mallory and grandpa




















After exploring for a while we decided to head back. Mallory was so tired she fell asleep in the boat















Uncle Aaron and Mallory on the boat dock.




















Aaron, Josh and John went fishing. Everyone caught something except for Josh. Here are their prize catches.




















We had a misfortunite accident. I laid Mallory down for a nap and Josh and I took off on the 4 wheeler for a ride. When we got back we found out Mallory had been stung by a wasp. Uncle Aaron saved the day and killed it. She cried for about 10 minutes after it happened. When we got back I put some ice on it and the swelling went down about an hour after it happened. Luckily she isn't allergic to them. She still has a little mark where it happened.















Daddy giving Mal some loving after the sting.




















She took her 1st 4 wheeler ride with grandpa















Josh and I decided it was time to turn Mallory's car seat around. So now she is facing forward. I think she enjoys it much more and she isn't breaking her neck every time she falls asleep.




















It took us a while but we finally got all of her birthday presents out of the boxes. Here is one of her favorites...a baby doll and stroller.




















Mal showing daddy her baby




















Nana helping Mallory push her stroller...she likes pushing the big one a lot better.
































Last night Mallory had her 1st swimming lesson (Aqua Tot). She enjoyed it and it wore me out.















Playing w/ my hair while she's laying on her back.















There are quite a few children in the class. We found out that Jackson a buddy from breastfeeding group was in our class so they chatted it up when every they crossed paths.















Saying HI to dad















Throwing Mal in the air...she loved it. She slept so good last night too. Water really wears her out.

Poor Mallory and the wasp sting. She's such a trooper. The swimming lessons look cool. If it wears her out, maybe I ought to check into that and wear my little miss out. Glad to see how well you all are doing.

P.S.Mallory and Addie have the same car seat!

Aqua Tot, how cute!! That's great she likes water. I know it took me quite awhile to like water so every bath and trip to the pool was not fun for my parents. I hope to get Eli involved in water activities too, so he won't be scared. Looks like you guys are doing well!

LOVE all the pictures!! You guys look really busy - that's great!
And yes, sad about the wasp sting! It reminded me of when you got stung at the pool when we were kids - you were about ready to jump off the diving board too! It made me sad b/c you didn't want to play the rest of the day! :( ;)
