Tempe was giving Daddy kisses through the gate... how sweet is that?!

 Mmmmm... Snacks!!

 She just loves sitting in Frank's basket.

 And sitting up like a big girl in Mommy's chair.

 Tempe had a good time swimming over at Tammy's house.

 Tammy let her check the temperature in the pool.

 This is Tammy's grand-daughter, Sophie and her mom, Sadie. Sophie is 4 months younger than Tempe.

Temperance loves her new piano that Susan gave to her. She plays it ALL the time.

 I think she loves Frank a little more than he is comfortable with some times :-)

 And yes... she likes to pick out his loose hair and hand it to me. It is Fantastic!

 Not to sure about this outfit because she Really looks like a boy.

 Her new thing is to "hang out" in Frank's toy basket.

 TA DA!!!!

 Every meal is a new experience. Cracks me up!

 Tempe is not real happy about the new baby gate but I am! Hooray!

 I was freaking out taking this picture but she managed to get down ok. Phew!

We had a wonderful trip to Illinois.

Temperance and Evelyn were the best of friends.

 Tempe's Baptism on Sunday was beautiful

Levi was our big helper. Thank you Levi!

 The Acolyte's even made a banner

 Our Family Gathering at Benardi's was a lot of fun as well as DELICIOUS.

 

My big girl is getting so adventurous...

 Temperance is doing well just relaxing in her pack-n-play.

 She loves to play the "chair game".

 and she LOVES to wander around with her new phone (courtesy of Aunt Kerri)

 Tempe has been eating plums this week.  Yum yum!

 This is her new dance move...I call it the "poo poo" dance.

 As you can imagine... she loves eating "big people" food.

 Eating a Tempe-size pancake.

 and Frank is never far behind her.
