More pics...

So I don't really have time to type a whole lot but I thought it was pretty important to get some pictures on here for you all to enjoy. Sorry I've been such a slacker.. Todd is patiently waiting at the school with me while I hurry and post an update. So sorry the pictures really aren't in order and there are very many of them...

Annagrace had lots of fun toys to play with.
Before we headed off to the south we stopped at Grandmas to play.
At the SLC airport... anxious to be in the air.
Our layover in Minneapolis - still happy travelers.
The first meeting... we didn't get to their house until like midnight or one o'clock in the morning... Reese and Annagrace meeting for the first time...
Another tutu pic...


We only ate out at classy places... as you can tell (the kind that give you cardboard crowns to wear).
Obviously our skin has not seen the Florida sun...sorry about the whiteness....

Pictures!!!

Ok I finally made it to the library... here are a few pictures from our trip... for those of you that have already seen Candi's blog a lot of these are the same.. but either way here you go.
We were constantly telling Annagrace to give Reese loves - and we were never able to capture the moment properly on camera... this is the best attempt we got at them looking like they like each other.
This is from the balcony of our condo in Panama City, right by the Beach!!!
My two beach babes.
She seriously loved the beach, the water, being out in the sun, and especially her turtle floaty.

Naturally we dressed them up - Candi took some great pics for us the morning before we left for home. (there are some more if you check out the Welch's of the south blog)

So So Sorry...

So sorry everyone this is yet another post without any pictures. So we just got back from our vacation early this morning. We had a grand ole time in the south. I was so worried about traveling with an infant but it was no big deal at all... I should have known Reese is such a great baby. Everyone on the plane loved her -- actually pretty much everyone that she came in contact with talked and smiled at her. We spent the first couple days in Columbus, Georgia just relaxing, shopping, eating and seeing the sights. Friday morning we headed down to Panama City Beach, Florida. Reese is quite the little mermaid. She loved the ocean and especially the swimming pool. She would kick and splash like a mad woman. Most of our time was spent in the water - that also includes the rain. It rained every day we were on vacation. It didn't ruin our vacation at all - it didn't ever interrupt anything we wanted to do. We ate at some great local restaurants (although they were mostly seafood-not my fav). We did some more shopping at found some great deals at the outlets. We were sad to go home - vacations always go by too fast. Reese slept on both our flights home and the whole way home in the car (what an angel). We got home at 5:30 this morning... we didn't want to stay anywhere and just come straight home. Regretfully we'll have to return to work this week. Hopefully I will feel refreshed and ready to get back to reality. Today we just took it easy, we were up by 9:30 this morning (someone was hungry). We just spent the day unpacking and watched the new movie Penelope (which I thought was really cute) and we started watching the first season of Heroes. (I never got into it the first time they started on tv...)

A quickie...

I haven't left the blogging world just to let you all know... Our posts will not be quite as frequent since we no longer have a reliable internet source and the only time I can blog is at ISU or my inlaws (where I currently am at the moment... and all they have is dial up talk about frustrating... ). So not too much going on.. Reese is six months old and is one crazy chica. She loves to splash like a mad woman in the bathtub, she growls instead of talking, she has the cubbiest legs and cheeks, and the wildest hair. She is super happy baby and doesn't get upset when strangers hold or play with her. She thinks it's hilarious when you clap in her face and give her raspberries on the back of her neck. The VCR remote control is her favorite toy - she actually liked the DVD remote better but since we use that one more often she had to get the VCR remote. I don't have any pictures with me that I can post. She just keeps growing... I'm sure she is about at the twenty pound mark. We had to reschedule her 6 month check up so I'm not quite sure. Last night we enjoyed the fireworks in logan from the mall parking lot. Lots of family was enjoyed Reese and fought over who got to hold her next. Next Tuesday we leave for Georgia.. yeah a vacation!!! I'll try to keep you all updated more often - I'm just lazy and don't get to the school as often as I would like. Anyway I better go spend time with the family.
