We got up there about 2:30 after a stop at the Little Acorn for delicious burgers, fries, onions rings and a caramel milkshake. Mmmmm, Phia thought everything was delicious! She did really good on the ride up until we got to the dirt road. She slept most of the way, but towards the end started fussing. I can't blame her since she has only been in the can 45 minutes max ever and this was close to 3 hours from our house to Shanes parents to Little Acorn and then up to camp. Shane got camp all set up and then she sat on her blanket and just enjoyed playing in the shade!
Later the next day we sat her on Trevans 4-wheeler. We were going to let her ride on one with us but the helmet was too big. She just had fun sitting on it and pretending while playing with all the knobs and dials.
We got her in her pj's that evening complete with a onesie, socks hat, and baby sleeping bag because we wanted to keep her warm. We brought her out by the campfire and she entertained everyone with all her antics!
She loves the water bottles that we had brought to make her bottles and drink from. She was quite enthralled with the cup holders on our chair also and had fun taking the water out and dropping it on the ground!
By Thursday she had figured out that anything that was any fun was kept in the basket between our chairs and so she scooted her self so she was positioned over the basket. She played there for quite awhile.
By the time Friday rolled around she had figured out how to do this....
Grandpa Great just got a kick out of her the whole time we were up there. She was so entertaining and kept doing things that made everyone laugh. She just sat in the basket for 20 minutes and talked and played with toys that were down there.
She played on her blanket more that afternoon....
and then it was time for homemade ice cream. Grandpa and Grandma Great had a hand crank machine and they packed it with snow and served everyone ice cream that all the kids had taken a turn cranking. She sure enjoyed that little treat! Only problem was the sun went behind the clouds until we had finished eating the ice cream so it was kind of cold.
More playing on the blanket with Daddy, she is a daddy's girl....
While we were eating our taco salad Grandma Great offered to hold her and Phia decided that was fun as she had shared hot dog with her just prior and Phia loved that. She sat on her lap and played with her zipper and her necklace, almost choking her a couple time because she was pulling so hard. At one point the zipper flipped to the inside of the jacket and grandma great tried to help her get it out and Phia obviously didn't want the help because she pushed her away.
Later on Phia had fun visiting with Cooper, Aunt Mary's dog...
After that she sat on the chair middle and watched the kids play frisbee and run around. She just wanted to be out running around with them!
On Friday they all wore the shirts and hair clips that Anita bought them. The shirts were the same for the girls and the guys had the same shirts but all the hair clips were different. Haley thought it would be cute to get a picture of Kaylea and Phia together but Kaylea had other ideas....here's how the little photo shoot went.....
This will be fun, pictures with Kaylea.....
What's wrong?
Don't you want a picture with me Kaylea?
Well, I guess I'm supposed to cry like Kaylea.....
After pictures it was about time to go and she was exhausted. I wanted another cute picture of her but this is what we got...
She saw the soccerball the kids had played with all week. We had kicked it that morning and she wanted to go play with it so her and Shane took off to play.
On the way home we stopped at the bottom of Spanish Fork Canyon for lunch at Burger King and Phia got to sit in the front seat and she thought she was so grown up!
She did pretty good sleeping at night but would only nap if we held her. Like Shanes hat?
She ended up in our bed every night and was woken up by Justin jumping his car with John's diesel trunk on Thursday night. That did not make for a real happy mommy.
She dumped a cup of orange pop on herself Tuesday night while I was trying to feed her baby food.
She got her other bottom tooth in so she now has 4 teeth.
She had smores with us one night and loved them.
She loves sour cotton candy.
She fell in love with Grandma Anita's kitten shawdow and by the end of the week was saying kitty cat. On Friday we were eating breakfast and she turned towards their trailer and pointed and said kitty cat. She won't say it now that the cat not around. She also loved all the dogs. I think there were 11 up camping
In other news she is blowing bubbles when she opens her mouth and goes ma.....ma.....over and over. My mom was working on her walking yesterday and actually got her to take steps on her own! That was exciting. We have been working with her today. She loves standing up to things and then will immediately dive into your arms as soon as she is standing up. She seems to think it is a lot of fun.
Tonight we had a delicious salad that I made up. It had 2 lettuces, breaded chicken tenders, craisins, mandarin oranges, wonton noodles and toasted sesame dressing. Delicious!
