June AZ trip

So June was a super busy month for me. I photographed 3 weddings in 2 weeks and apparently, that burnt me out of taking personal photos, because I have hardly any in my June 2011 folder. But I at least happened to take a few.

A huge high-light of the month was Remy pretty much potty-trained herself. She was amazing. After the epic fail a few months ago, I had little hope for her. However, she got a really bad diaper rash that wouldn't go away, so I threw some underwear on her one day. She still peed all over my house that day, but the next day, she didn't want anything to do with diapers (and I really wanted to put a diaper on her). She only had 1 accident that day. I was in complete shock. Way to go Remikins! I was really nervous that our trip to Arizona, just a week after the first day of dry undies, would really set back the progress. Nope. She kept dry! And I even had her in a pull-up because I didn't want an accident in her car seat for the 12 hour drive. What I did get as a lovely surprise in her car seat was puke. All over. So bad. Luckily, it happened 2 hours into the drive and we were 5 minutes away from my brother's house. After a major scrubbing of both car seat and Remy, 45 minutes later we were back on the road. Towels, cleaners and cool-whip containers ready at will for any other stomach churning threat. (Those towels, cleaners and containers proved themselves worthy on our way back home, no less than 2 hours into the drive again. Poor girl.)

Another high-light--full sentences. Remy has exploded her vocabulary and speaks in full sentences. She counts to 10, knows the ABC's by heart, Knows all her colors, can recognize R's, O's, S's, and B's, and then other random letters she surprises me with when she tells her baby what letter it is. She sings, and sings and sings. Loves mary had a little lamb, twinkle twinkle little star, I am a child of God, ABC's, row row row your boat, and a bunch more. Consider yourself very lucky if you don't get one of those songs stuck in your head after being near her for more than 5 minutes.

So there you have it. June in a nut-shell. Full of weddings and lots of other bodily functions...

I shot this wedding while in Arizona. If you haven't checked it out, you should. It was amazing and very well done. Fun vintage theme.
We had a great time with a bunch of my family that drove down with us, and just enjoyed the warmth and sunshine!

A few shots from the AZ trip. We did not get enough pool time in and I'm wishing I was at this pool right now... ( this is my bro's pool. lucky kids.)

And I just love this shot of Remy and I. She is such a little lover and will give me lots of hugs through-out the day and tell me she loves me. *melt*

PS- Can I just tell you how much I love the Camera+ app on my iphone? It's so fun to edit photos with it. A dollar well spent!

yay for the potty training! boo to the puke. Puke and cars are about my least favorite thing. So-I say it is pool time for us...we need to plan a day, like yesterday. :)
