Lake Powell and the rest of Saturday

We were here on Saturday. We ate lunch in the truck overlooking the lake, near Glen Canyon Dam. It was pretty hot and I really wanted to go in the water, but time didn't permit.

Last night we stayed in Torrey, UT at a cute little motel called Austin's Chuckwagon Inn. It was a small room, but all we needed for the night. The town was really small, but had a great burger joint that satisfied our hunger after a loooong drive. It also sold beer, which actually determined where we were going to eat (remember we were in Utah!).

More to come later. Nothing but driving today. We'll be in Jackson tonight!

Annnnnnd we're off

We departed slightly behind schedule this morning, but it ok. We pulled out of the driveway at 3:34am. The iPod is on shuffle-we have 11,657 songs and we are going to listen to it straight through. We are cruising along. It will be a long day as Dominik decided he didn't want to sleep last night. He was up at 11 pm, 12 am, 1:30am, and 2 am. Just a little fussy and nothing a pacifier couldn't handle. But it sure makes for a tired mom and dad.

First stop-Grand Canyon.

Where's Dominik?

He loves when we throw the rag on his head and play peek-a-boo. After I took this picture, he kept it on his head for a couple minutes. It was pretty funny.

Who peed the bed?

This title is modified from one of my favorite episodes of "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" called 'Who Pooped the Bed?'. In that episode, Frank and Charlie share a bed and there is a mysterious turd that appears, but it is inconclusive as to whose it is as all evidence points to bot of them. Trust me, its hilarious. Anyways, back to 'Who Peed the Bed?'. That would be Dominik. He doesn't share a bed and all evidence points to him. :). The past 4 nights he has peed the bed (and yes I have a diaper on him). 3 nights it has gone through everything-onesie, sleep sack, and sheet. And today it only got to the onesie and sleep sack. I honestly don't know what's going on, I'm not doing anything different with the diaper, but he is moving/rolling around a lot more so maybe that is the cause? Bruce even changed him around midnight thinking that the diaper was just getting too full and a clean one would help prevent the leakage. WRONG! I hope this doesn't last long as I am sick of doing laundry. Any advice on if this is normal or not would be greatly appreciated!

Visitors from Florida

We had a great visit with Great Grandpa and Brenda. We were lucky to have some unseasonably cool weather while they were here and we got to try out the new patio set. We had breakfast and dinner outside on Saturday, it was fantastic! Dominik was spoiled with so many hugs and kisses and toys, he just didn't know what to do with himself! In the picture he is testing out his new alphabet train. It teaches, letters, items that start with certain letters, and numbers. And most importantly, there is an OFF button. Haha. Its really cute and he seems to like it. We miss Grandpa and Brenda already and can't wait for them to come back!

Dominik also had his 6 month check up on Friday, he is 18 lbs, 15 oz (75th percentile) 28 inches (95th percentile) and 95th percentile for head size. He has a really long torso and is wearing 9-12 month clothes. Definitely growing like a weed! We have also started him on fruits. We have tried apples, bananas and avocados. So far the "naners" are his favorite. We have also done carrots, sweet potatoes, green beans and peas. Today we even tried out a sippy cup, but he didn't quite get it :)

That's all for now!
