New Tricks

Paisley started rolling over (from her back to her stomach) this past weekend. Now it's all she does. This is how we found her this morning.

Thanks Amber

I stole this picture of my friend, Amber's blog. I thought it was too good to pass up.

Look Who's Talking

I set Paisley down and left the room for a second. All the sudden I started hearing this:

I realize I might be the only one who enjoys this video, but if you want to hear the sounds in the Kirby house this morning- here you go.

For Aunt Blair

I know that I have posted similar pictures before, but I love watching Paisley play. This morning was no different.

Grandma's Bat Mitzvah

We traveled to Las Cruces, New Mexico over the weekend to celebrate Grandma's 80th Birthday and Bat Mitzvah. She was hard to track down so I didn't get many pictures. This is the best one I have of Grandma and Uncle Mel.The morning started at Temple Beth-el. We witnessed Grandma become a "daughter of the commandment" Grandma did a great job on her Hebrew and I learned a little bit about Jewish worship. After the ceremony we had a luncheon at the Temple. That night Grandma threw quite the party. Her theme was politics- the party was red, white, and blue and both John McCain and Barack Obama were represented via life size stand up posters. There were several bands- the night started off with a Mariachi Band and ended with a more traditional brand to encourage people out on the dance floor. All the kids were so cute out there dancing- in a couple of years Paisley will be able to join them. The food was delicious and it was fun being together with family. I didn't take very many pictures. However, Paisley was a hit. Everyone wanted to hold her I barely got a chance. She meet Aunt Kristie, GG (Grandma), Aunt Kathy, Uncle Mel, and even some relatives from Mississippi.

Zoe was so cute with Paisley in this picture she is holding her hand while eating breakfast.

I got a chance to hold her (I think everyone else was eating).

Paisley with Paca and Grandma.

Here's Lisa with her camera. Her new hobby is photography and she takes this camera with her everywhere she goes. Also in the picture is Lindsey and Brynn, Zane and Zoe.
Paisley was the perfect baby over the trip. She didn't make a sound in the car and survived 6 + hours in her car seat each way. I think she was excited to get home and be able to stretch out. The second we got her out of her seat she was chatting more then we have ever heard her talk. All around it was a fun trip and Paisley was great- if only she could stay this age forever...
Happy Birthday Grandma thanks for hosting such a fun party.

Fall is here

When I lived in Provo, I could not wait for spring. Once the snow stopped falling and the sun started shinning it seemed like everyone was out on the lawn. Well, now that I live in Arizona summer is the dreaded season. It is FINALLY starting to cool down here. I had to take advantage of this beautiful weather and take Paisley to play outside. I think she liked it enough today. She is going to learn to love it.

Also, Paisley has discovered her fingers. Maybe we won't need the pacifier much longer?

Toys!

I have been trying to get Paisley interested it toys- they do not appeal to her. She still has trouble holding onto them (she gets a better grip on her bottle than any toy I have handed her).

So today she was a little fussy (rare for her), but it wasn't quite her nap time so I put her in her exersaucer and it worked. She started playing with the toys and the fussing stopped. Needless to say I am making progress in the toy department.

What do I do with all that HAIR?

Don't get me wrong. I love all the hair that Paisley has. It's fun to play with. Tonight I decided to have so fun. Here's some pictures of Paisley and all her hair.

You wouldn't know it but I promise she does make different expressions.
