Vacations are wonderful

We just got back from Deer Lake, WA (about an hour outside of Spokane). We had such a wonderful time. Most of the fam on J's side was there. It was a blast. Baby J had a bunch of firsts. She tried a sippy cup for the first time and did great. She's even figured out how to suck on it because I didn't buy the drippy kind (oops). She laughed for the first time. She's doing great on her sitting. She rode a boat for the first time and swam in a like for the first time. She was absolutely awesome the whole time we were there. She struggled on the ride home because it took us two days (we had to get the dog from my parents' house on the way home). We had such a blast!

Here are some of the pics.

We just got into town and Jana was so glad to get out of her car seat as we grabbed dinner before going to the cabin.



Jana's version of hanging out on the dock in the sun!



Hanging out with Grandpa on the dock while all the girls are sunbathing.



She loved the camera. Posing all the time.






FIRST BOAT TRIP!

Hanging out in the life jacket while on the boat.



Trying to eat the life jacket while on the boat. She's definitely in the phase of everything goes into mouth!



Just lookin' cute!

Chillin' in the intertube.





New trick: She grabbed the box of Wheat Thins, pulled out the bag, and tried to start eating the bag.
