just a couple things!!!!

Last week Josie and I took off to Utah. We were so sad to leave daddy all alone but fortunately he went to St. Louis for "work." He did work there but was also able to go to the Home run derby and the all star game. He had so much fun and well deserved. He works so hard for his little family. This is a picture of President Obama throwing out the first pitch....


While in Utah we went to Josie's Doctors appt. She is doing great.... weighing in at 17 lbs and 27 inches tall. She is at the funnest stage. She army crawls around the whole apt. She says "Da da da da da" I say Ma ma ma and she says "da da da" She is definately a daddy's girl. For those of you who know about Pucks nose twitch. She does something similiar. And of course Puck loves it. She is very easily entertained. While in Utah we were able to see some of her cousins and she loved interacting with them.




Josie loves hanging out with her daddy. Her favorite thing to do is be on his shoulder and eat his hair.



Also we are realizing we can't leave her alone anywhere. I went to the kitchen for 2 seconds and came back to this......


She found a pen and wrote all over her mouth.

We also finally have enjoyed the sun and had a little BBQ at the pool. The group out here is soo fun. The guys work hard and the girls work hard at playing card games. haha. It really is fun. This isn't the whole group just a few snap shots.

Happy Birthday America!!!!

Oh the thing I miss..... 4th of July Celebrations.
I love soo many things about this holiday. And these are just a few of the things we will be missing in Utah

Boating
Barbaques
Family Gatherings
Stadium of Fire

So this 4th we will be playing card games in the rain and crossing our fingers that our husbands will be done with work before the firework shows are over. And my sweet brother TOAD offered to babysit Josie tonight which makes me so happy. I will actually get to go out on date with my hubby. I am so excited.

Took some pictures of Josie before the rain. She doesn't really like the sun...Can you tell???

SOO big

Josie is getting soo big. A few new things with Josie is that she is a champion sitter. She can sit for like a half hour and entertain herself. She is also learning how to scoot. Oh no..... I am not prepared for her being mobile. She holds up her arms when she wants you to pick her up. She is quickly out growing her crib a.k.a. pack and play. She totally has her daddy wrapped around her finger. Puck gets so sad at night because she is already asleep when he gets home. Sometimes he will go in her room and stare at her or he will just watch her baby monitor. So cute.

Florida is beginning to heat up. We had about a month of rain every day and now it
still rains but is crazy hott. We are enjoying our time out here. There isn't a lot to update about Patrick and I.... our lives are work work work.

just a few pics

for those of you who miss us (by us I mean Josie) here are a few pics



This last picture Josie is wearing the dress that my niece Addi wore to our wedding.... SO CUTE!

GOOO Marlins!

Last week my sweet sister and her cute family came to visit. It was so great to have them with us although both Puck and I had to work almost the entire time. They were able to do so much fn stuff like swim with dolphins, ride an airboat thru the Everglades, they visited 4 of Miamis greatest beaches and go to baseball games. Fortunately we were able to join them for 1 of the Marlins vs. Dodgers game. Josie of course came along and this is how she felt about the Marlins......

needless to say that didn't last too long. HOpefully we will be able to enjoy Florida soon.

WHATS new???

well to start with......we moved here.

Yes it is the summer time and we packed up and moved to Miami Florida and let me tell you the weather is fabulous. We only got about a week of spring in Utah before we left but we were ready for some heat. Josie loves the heat too. Although she does get really hot. Our apartment complex is huge so we have to walk a lot everyday. but lets face it, its a good thing for us. Puck is doing sales and I am managing the office. ITs a little stressful. I hope we get to enjoy Miami soon.
Something else new is that my hubby graduated from here

I am so proud of Puck!!!! He had a stressful last semester but he did it. Congrats BABE!!!!

WARNING: overload

So much has happened since our last post. 1st thing is we had a baby shower for Sadi and it was so much fun. She is having a baby girl in July and Josie can hardly wait. I made this cake for the shower and after I made it I remembered that Sadi doesn't even like chocolate. Sorry Sade for not thinking about the mother-to-be.

Next Josie is 4 months old. Time seriously is flying. We went to her 4 month appointment yesterday and she weighs 14 lbs 13 ounces and she is 26 in tall. That is the 97 %tile. What the heck.... she must get her height from her daddy!!!!! The doctor says that she is doing unusually well. That is good I think. She really is a blessing to the Heriford family. We absolutely adore her and fall more in love with her everday. Some of the fun things she does is: take out her binkie and try to put it back in her mouth. Laughs alot. Grandma Nancy taught her to eat her toes. She loves to grab our hands when we try to put her binkie back in her mouth. She loves watching BABY Mozart, JAZZ games, and SPORTScenter. Thanks daddy. Oh and she doesn't really like tummy time......

Also my mom came out to visit and we went to Thanksgiving point to the Tulip Festival. It was soo pretty and so warm. Gracey, Addi, and Jenn came along. It was so fun. Josie slept for most of it but I think Gracey loved it.
