Aleana's First Parade
Saturday morning August 31st
Here we are with Aunt Julee & Maegan, and Uncle Brandon
waiting for the Francis Frontier Days parade to start.
Hanging with Aunt Julee
Watching the parade with mommy
Since Curt's Dad is the Mayor of Francis Curt was asked to MC the Parade.
He was a little nervous but I think he did a grate job!

Aleana's First Rodeo
Saturday night August 31st
Enjoying the Rodeo with daddy
Hanging out with mommy
We had to hurry and take some pictures right at the beginning because she was getting tired and the buzzers, guns and crazy animals were kind of scaring her. We only stayed about a half hour before we headed back to Curt's parents. I was good that Curt's dad was able to get us in free.
Aleana's First Kids Games
Monday morning September 1st
Playing with Uncle Brandon, He was one of her favorite people this weekend. It maybe that he had some fun coloring apps on his IPad, although he is a nice guys and great with kids.
Got the perfect look for the cute little cowgirl hat!
Playing with Aunt Debbie and her awesome red sun glasses
On Monday afternoon they had the Bull Wars, bull riding, bucking horses and other fun rodeo acts. To start it out they had an awesome flag ceremony were the sky jumper jumped out with the American flag and the Utah state flag. It was fun to watch.
Ready to go home after and fun long weekend. Aleana got her favorite blanket that she has a hard time sleep with out and sleep all the way home.
11 months old and a few fun pictures for her 10th month.
Aleana tuned 11 months on September 1, where has the time gone!
She just thinks that she sign is for ripping apart,
at least I got a one while it was still readable

Aleana tuned 11 months on September 2, where has the time gone!
Aleana has eight teeth and might be working on a ninth (or even 10th 11th and 12th). I am not sure how much she weighs but I think she is still over 20lbs even though one of her favorite activities is climbing the stairs. She is losing a lot of her baby fat though and soon her cute chunky legs will be gone. She is walking around all the furniture in the house and loves to hold our fingers and walk. She often will start fussing if we stop helping her walk before she reaches her destination. She also is standing on her own for up to a minute at a time, before too long she will be taking off walking.
Aleana still loves playing in the bathroom when she sneaks in, or if I leave the door open while I am using the bathroom. She unrolls the toilet paper and tries putting it into the toilet, she love the garbage can, toilet brush, plunger etc., exactly what I want my baby playing with. She also loves playing in drawers and cupboards with; plastic containers, pots and pan, dish clothes, kitchen appliances, clothes, movies etc. She got mad the other day because we were using the pots and pans to cook and not letting her play with them. My house and her room are all torn up by the end of the day. I need to install the child safety locks.
Looking Cute and so grown up in her basket.
I just love that cute smile!
Sitting and reading her favorite book
Trying to climb up me to still the camera, but I got some cute picture out of it.
Being her little curious self and playing with the fan and trying to unplug it.
She loves playing with the curtain and playing peek-a-boo with the sun.
Playing with one of "her" pots. She got mad the other day because
we were using the pots and pans to cook and not letting her play with them.
Aleana loves music and starts dancing and waving her arms every time music starts. She has also learned a new trick, she loves to give high fives, but I think her favorite is still peek-a-boo. She even loves playing with the curtains in her room and playing peek-a-boo with the sun. She is a spunky little girl and keeps me busy and smiling.
I still think that her favorite thing is electronics. She tries to talk my phone or tablet whenever I am using them, especially if it is daddy on the phone. Whenever I take her pictures she will smile for the camera and then try to come and take the camera away from me.
Aleana is Mommy's little friend! We love playing together all day long. Although she does love other kids and loves it when we have play dates, or play groups. Her best friend is Kaylee When we are outside walking on the grass she usually will walk me right up to Kaylee’s front door and get upset when I take her away if they are not home. Monday September 9th was the first time she did this. We were sitting outside on the lawn and we watching Chelsea Austin and Kaylee leave. Then a few minutes later Aleana started climbing up on me like she wanted me to take her somewhere. So I stood up and helped her start walking and she led me right over to Kaylee’s house. I pulled her away and she started crying. I tried to see if walking somewhere else would help but the only thing that did was to take her back over to their front door and letting her knock on it. I eventually had to take her in because she would not calm down. She did go inside and eat lunch, and she had recently woken up but I thought it was cute that she was sad because she could not go play with her friend.
Just saying hi to everyone.
Perfect little seat for a cute little girl!
She loves sitting on this step it is her little seat.
She thinks she is ready to feed her self
But usually it just ends up all over her
At least for now she will let us feed her and help her for
a while before she thinks it is her turn.
Big Yawn!
Just being Cute for the camera!
She smiles and laughs when I pull out the
camera and then she tries to come and still it from me.
pulling the pots and pans out of the cupboard
Unloading her clothes out of her drawers.
Reading books is her favorite thing to do and she is actually letting me read to her now! She loves to have books read to her during play time, before naps and before bedtime. She will bring me books to read to her and sometimes she will get upset at night if we stop reading to pray or sing. Her favorite place to play is at her bookshelf which is now on our landing at the bottom of the stairs. She loves sitting on the bottom step or the step to the landing they are the perfect little seat for a cute little girl!
Sorry if I went a little picture crazy but I just love my little girl:)
Aleana latest words are “Who’s that”, “what’s that”, Debbie, and dog. She will wake up from naps and just start saying, “Who’s that” over and over until I come get her. She will also us them in context. She will point at someone and say “who’s that” or something and say “what’s that.” She is a little smarty!
