Update!
















Well. This week has been an interesting one! BJ had his Cert program last Wednesday, and then left for Vegas for three days on Thursday night. From what he has told me, he seems to have had a pretty good time! I spent most of the weekend out at my parents, which was very fun (caught up on my TV time there!). Sunday, Karly and I went to PBR (professional bull riding) with my Grandma Donna, Aunt Linda, and Mom. I didnt realize when we were on our way, but it was way too loud for Karly. The moment the announcer came on the loud speaker, she started screaming. I felt so terrible, so I rushed her out to the hallway, where I called BJ to come and pick us up. Unfortunately, I had left her carseat in my Mom's car, so she needed to take me out to get it. When we asked Guest Services if she could have another ticket to get in, they asked us if we would like to see if a suite would be better for her so that we would be able to stay. Well, my Mom jumped at the opportunity, and we were escorted to a suite that was literally right above the stage. It was perfect! Not only could we see the riders perfectly, but we got to see all the behind the scenes stuff also. There was one bull who did a head dive in the arena, and when it was put into the pin in the back, it was charging at all of the people who were trying to take care of it! What a tough job that would be! We couldn't believe how nice the people at Arco were, and how accommodating. Anyway, today Karly SAT UP on her own. She was sitting on BJ's lap, and lifted herself up on her own. What a big girl! Here are some pictures of the girl today, and one of Karly and her Dad making cute faces at eachother. Until next time!





XOXO, Blair

I love your pictures. They are so cute. The one of BJ and Karly is pricless. How fun to sit in a booth at a rodeo. That is exciting! I am glad they had an option for you.

I'm loving your blog! It's so fun to see how big Karly is getting & to hear about how much you're enjoying your new life. :) Keep up the great work! Love you! :) PS - ever find anymore of my maternity clothes? haha :)

She is amazing! I can't believe how strong she is and how much she is ready to "grow up"! I too love the picture of her and bj making faces! I totally understand not being prepared for the noise. I took Courtney to a concert once when she was little. I had ear plugs for her, but still felt it was so loud and spent most of the time in the hall! How fun to have a suite!
