4 Months old!

Yesterday we had our 4 month old check up.  My little butterball weighs 16 pounds!  And she's grown to 25 inches!  She's developed quite the personality.  She's a people lover and loves to be in a crowd.  Very smiley and vocal!  So much fun.  We are definitely blessed!  Love our little Libs!!





17 Weeks Old

 Last Monday was a big day for our little girl. She learned how to roll from her back to her tummy! And boy is she good at it. Anytime we lay her down now, she flips to her tummy. I don't think she means to do it half the time because as soon as she rolls over, she gets pretty mad. Which is funny because I know she knows how to roll from tummy to back because she did that a few weeks ago. Oh well. And also that day she discovered her right foot! I kept telling her she had toes, but she didn't believe me! We are working on finding her left foot. She found it once, but I think she forgot again. She's growing so fast I just can't believe it!

Landon's 5th Birthday

Last weekend Landon had a birthday party at the Big Timber Water Slides.  It was a great weekend for it!  Big Timber was a great meeting place since there's family in Butte, Bozeman, Billings and all of us around Judith Gap, Stanford and Lewistown.  We all met at the Frosty Freeze for lunch before hittin' the slides.  Libby got to have special cuddle time with Aunt Dauna, so Tim and I took advantage of that!  Besides all the little kids, I think the ones having the most fun were the big boys-- Shawn and Tim!  Hardly saw them all afternoon, they were too busy making big splashes!!  I managed to make a few splashes too!  It was a great birthday party.  Might have to make that a tradition!!

Camping at Black Sandy

Last month was our annual Mauws family camping trip.  This year we went to Black Sandy on Hauser Lake.  This was Libby's first camping trip!  We met Carol over there on Thursday and set up camp.  The rest of the clan started showing up on Friday.  It was a very hot weekend.  We were very thankful to have electrical hookups so we could run the air conditioner!  Libby and I had to hang out in the camper quite a bit and cool off.  The weekend was spend just visiting and eating, just like any other camping trip!  Bob had brought a keg for the get-together!  He had a customer that wanted to do some trading so Bob furnished the beverages for the occasion!  It was a pretty fun weekend.  Got to go out on the boat a few times.  Libby got lots and lots of loves from her aunts!  Hopefully we will be able to fit one more camping trip in before summer is over.  It seems to be going by pretty quickly.  School starts very soon!  Enjoy the rest of your summer!!
