Utah and home again

We drove home last Tuesday to be able to make an eye exam for Willa on Wednesday. We have been waiting six months for this exam, but more on that later.

Here are a few happenings from Utah. We visited Donna and the girls had a great time looking at Fiona the cat.

Willa helped my dad pick apricots, rather my dad would toss them on the ground and she would collect them. She can't say her L sound and so many things just sound super adorable. She kept saying, "I to yittle to reach. I put them in the bucket." While we were visiting, she picked strawberries, raspberries, and squash, which was all very thrilling.

As you can see from the photo, she got a haircut! I've been toying with the idea for a while because she doesn't really like me to spend the amount of time and water squirting on it to make it look well. I've seen so many cute bobs on little girls and thought (as I have thought many times previous) that cute short hair is better than not cute long hair. It could look good long, but it wasn't on an everyday basis. My mom took her to our curly hair stylist and he did a great cut. She was very nervous but behaved thanks to a wrapped present that was waiting for her in the car. Thanks grandma! In her quiet way, I can tell that she likes the new 'do. She will stop to look at it in the mirror and feel it. Today we put a headband on for church and she said, "I am a beautiful little girl." She is so sweet and she did look adorable.

Lastly, there were many sink baths and Willa even got a turn, which was funny since she is getting on the big  side.
Now whenever I do dishes, June wanders over holding out her hand and asking for "bubba" bubbles.

It was a nice trip. My niece Ashley drove home with us to have a Vegas adventure and just flew home today.
