We have had some crazy weeks with moving and all of my schoolwork. But my last paper of the semester is finished. I can take a deep breath now. I have 2 lovely group projects left, but I'm going to take a little break now. Sadly, it's snowing today. I love snow, but up until now , it has been PERFECT weather. Rainey and I have spent a lot of time outside on a blanket in our fabulous yard.
Here she is eating lunch, and you can see mountains in the background. We love them. The tree is blocking the best part, but at least you get the idea.
Here she is with one of her favorite things: the rake. And I asked her: Where are your fingers?
She was pointing to the swings at this moment. I just wanted to show what she's doing the majority of the time: pointing to everything, either to hear the word again or learn a new word. She's currently obsessed with smoke detectors. She'll find one in every room and even in other people's houses. pretty funny.
This is new. She can now stand without any help, and she's so proud every time she does it.
This is to show you part of the house. She loves her feet, and yes, that's a Qtip. I'll spare you the story, but it was a battle I didn't want to fight at that time.
She loves the leaves, and let's just say one rake doesn't quite do the job. We underestimated the amount of leaves on our property. (That feels weird to say--"our property")
Love that face.
Had to document how she loves to hold your thumb, if you're reading to her, carrying her, feeding her a bottle. I love it!
We all got to go on a hike up Little Cottonwood Canyon. It was so fun, but we (the Mitchells) were very unprepared and froze.
She also loves the phone. She looks like such a big girl in her chair and with the phone.
HALLOWEEN:
The only time she wore the hat.
One word: sweet.

Those pictures are awesome. What a smart girl pointing at everything. Can't wait to see her next month. You weren't kidding about the leaves. Holy cow! I want to see more pictures of the house. By the way, your hair is totally growing out and looks great! Miss you guys!
Hey Leah! I just stumbled across your blog... I can't believe how grown up Lorraine is! She is so cute!
Also, I found out a few weeks ago that your cousin (Kate) was in my freshman ward at BYU. Small world, huh? :)
She is getting so big! I'm totally missing it! I love that she's always sticking out her tongue. Too cute. She's starting to look more and more like you, Leah. :)
Wow, she is getting to be so grown-up! Still so sad to have missed you guys out here, but hopefully we can get together next time we're in the 'tah. We'll be there for a short visit at Thanksgiving, so we'll have to chat and see if there will be time to meet up.
Love the picture of the hair. That was classic.
So fun to see updates! Rainey is so cute and getting so big (Millie was a cow for her first Halloween, too). So glad that you are enjoying Utah. Ahh, the mountains!
