Cute picture of Lyla with Paul. She's been pretty stranger shy lately and usually has to be held by me all the time, but sometimes she just wants to be close to daddy. Last night she woke up because her teething is bugging her and she just wanted Paul to hold her. Every time he tried to hand her to me to feed her she would scream and scream and reach for him! I was a little worried but it was pretty cute too. We're so excited that the Grossarths have moved to Orem!! Lyla and Kaitlyn are starting to enjoy playing together.
I know I already wrote about Tyson leaving on his mission, but I just found a few more pics of the day he left. He's in Guatemala now and doing so well!
Lyla and I went to Lake Powell with my family while Paul was at a conference in Salt Lake. Lyla did so well the whole time and seemed to really like riding in the boat. Every time the engine got loud from going fast, she would fall right to sleep and take a nice little nap. She and I got on the intertube behind the boat for a few minutes- can't you tell how much she liked her lifevest? :) Apparently this one isn't the best design...
The weather was so nice and the water was perfect!

Summer isn't summer until we swim in my parents pool!! I really miss living near them and swimming 5-6 days a week. Lyla loves playing in the warm water.
Grandpa thought it would be fun to take Lyla down the slide.
I guess she isn't a huge fan yet... maybe by next summer she'll like it better.
Paul's mom and brother Justin came to visit us for a few days. We had a great time together- this is at the driving range.
They all hit for awhile and then Paul had me try a few. As I walked up to get ready, Lyla just started laughing and laughing. I was a little offended that even my little girl knows how bad i am at golfing! :) After that though she would crack up every time anyone hit a ball- I guess she liked the noise. We tried to record it but only got her to laugh once:

It was so fun to see you last Sunday!! Lyla's getting so big. You guys had a fun, busy summer.
Ok, the life jacket picture crack me up!

I second the adoration for the lifejacket picture - I'm sitting in a computer lab right now and I just laughed out loud. Hopefully you'll get a respite from the teething soon!
