She's on the Move

We have only been home from Canada for a week now but it feels like a lot longer because so much has gone on. Daniel is back at work and enjoying it. They offered him a job through the school year which is very exciting! Lyza has been very busy reaching new milestones and Lyza being busy is keeping me busy!
This past week has been very hot. Everyday has been between 33-35 *C. The other night when Daniel got home from work we decided to go to the lake to cool off a bit. This was Lyza's first time swimming! Lyza loved being in the water and we all had a lot of fun. Our next step is teaching Lyza not to drink the water!

 

 

On the nights we don't go to the lake we let Lyza cool off before bedtime in the sink!

 

We had a great day together yesterday in Spokane. On the way in we stopped at the Nut Factory which wasn't as exciting as we had anticpiated. After that we did a little bit of shopping and then got some lunch at Mackenzie River Pizza. We spent the afternoon at Manito Park. It is a large park with walking trails and beautiful gardens. By the time we were done there we were all very hot and went to a pool in Spokane and swam before we came home.  Here are a few pictures from the park.

Japanese Gardens

Rose Gardens

Our favorite rose :)

Duncan Gardens

After we left the park we were driving through a residential neighborhood and just happened to see 2 turkeys walking down the sidewalk.....weird.

This week Lyza has been a busy girl! She has figured out how to get from laying down to sitting up all on her own. She has also started "crawling". She doesn't get her body off the ground but instead uses her arms to drag herself. She is getting faster everyday...especially when she has something particular she would like to get her hands on. So far her favorite things to crawl for have been the remote, camera and phone! haha
