Utah vacation

I had enough frequent flyer miles for a free round trip ticket that was going to expire this year, so I took a trip to Utah to visit my sister, Cajsa. I took Emalyn and we had a great week! We started it off with massages and it was AWESOME! I wish I could afford it weekly...I didn't bring my pack 'n play because the airlines are now charging for a second bag ($25 each way-now $50!) so we made a bed on the floor next to my bed and Emalyn did pretty good. On the second day, I heard her crying on and off just a little, so I went in to get her from her nap (she usually talks when she wakes up from her nap-so I thought it was unusual) and this is what I found!! She brought her blanket and toy in there as well :)

Emalyn has never been on grass before and so we brought out the camera for her first experience. It was pretty funny, although, we kind of knew what to expect because my youngest sister, Lissa, had the same experience when she was almost the same age. We started with her just sitting on the grass and she tried as hard as possible to stay upright! She was just starting to sit up on her own a couple days before, and this sure helped that! She eventually fell over and FROZE! She did not move at all and just kind of whimpered for help after a minute or so-it was too cute.

After we got back home, I heard her crying just after I put her down for a nap. I came in and she got herself into sitting position and was stuck! I had to take a picture, then laid her back down and she was out. Oh, and that was the last time she slept in the bassinet part of the pack 'n play. I had no idea she could do that on her own!
