Anabelle has learned a new trick. She's been doing this for a while, but I finally got it on video

Sorry I'm so lame
Seriously, there's no excuse for how lazy I have been with blogging lately. I'm sorry.
Anabelle and my visit out to Utah for Tom's wedding was a lot of fun. We had a great time. Thanks everyone. Once again, I was lazy about picture taking, so I didn't get a whole lot while I was there, but here's a few.
Tom and Emaly
The sisters, all with our babies (Megan and Ryder, Me and Anabelle, Laura and Graham-with baby Girl Hatch in Laura's belly)
The studly groomsmen, minus Nick (Jesse, Chris, Stew)
With the Lewis Family (Laura Grady, Anabelle, Hallie)
Mike's parents visited us last week, and it was great to have them here. Thanks for coming Kirt and Annette! One night, Annette was making clicking sounds with her tongue at Anabelle and she was trying to do it back. We recorded her cuz it was so funny. Then we showed her the video we recorded and she continued trying to "click" her tongue (or just make the same noise). Gotta love her!
We also took a trip to the Beach, which was a lot of fun. Anabelle crashed after a little while, as you can see :) We went snorkeling, swimming, and walked up and down the sand. Beautiful day!

Lake Kissimmee
We went on a two-night camping trip at Lake Kissimmee State Park this weekend. It was a lot of fun, but we got a huge storm on Friday night that dumped 1.4" in about an hour and a half. We found out that the tent we bought last week wasn't very good, and the water was coming in through the seams. We had to use all of our dirty clothes to soak up the water that was getting in.

Other than that we had a lot of fun fishing, hiking, and relaxing. Anabelle did really well for the most part, even in the very loud thunder storm that night. Here are some pics. We saw a lot of cool things like armadillos, wild turkeys, deer (one came right through our camp with its fawn), and some gators (of course).

This guy was literally about two feet away from me scrounging for bugs. They're a lot quicker than I previously thought. Never got him to roll up in a ball though.
This is Sarah's spotted sunfish. She did catch two bass that were bigger than this fish, but this was the only one of these we caught.

My largest catch. About 15" and 3 lbs.
I'm not sure if Anabelle really appreciates camping as much as we do.

Craft Project
Last week my friend Carrie and I decided to work on a sewing project because I have been dying to make these cute baby booties. They turned out very well, considering I have a very slight sewing background. They fit Anabelle well, and I am excited to make some other pairs for her in other colors. Aren't they cute!
I used the pattern from http://stardustshoes.blogspot.com/2006/10/cloth-shoe-pattern.html if anyone is interested.
Dog shirts??
One of our friends gave us this shirt for Arcee last week because they were just going to throw it away otherwise. Neither of us like or even approve of putting clothing on dogs, but while Mike was gone one night I decided I just had to put it on her and take a picture. Pretty funny looking if you ask me, and Arcee hated it!
Anabelle playing with the fun play mat our friends Seth and Carrie let us borrow. Usually she'll end up rolling off of it in about 2 minutes, but she likes the music it plays.
We went to a Marlins game last week with some people from Mike's work, and that was a lot of fun, other than it being so hot and humid that we couldn't stop sweating. It was the first time going to a major league game for us.

So long...
Sorry it has been so long since a posting. We have all of our pictures on our laptop now and I don't use it very often.
Anyway, Anabelle has been growing like crazy. She's 6 1/2 months old now! She has one tooth that has broken through the gums on the bottom and the one right next to it will come through any day now. She's rocking back and forth on her hands and knees, trying her best to crawl. It is so funny to watch because she gets so frustrated when she can't go where she wants. You can see in the top picture that her blonde hair is finally starting to grow in :) We are having a lot of fun with her.
School starts for me next week. I am taking 6 credits and then I will only have one class left to take in the Spring before I can graduate. Hooray!!! So exciting!
