Alli update

So I thought I'd give everyone a little update on what's been going on around here. We have moved to Idaho Falls/Ucon area into a house. We LOVE IT! It also has 8 acres which is so nice! Obviously you can tell by my previous posts that we got a couple puppies.
Allison has started to prefer sucking on her fingers and her blanket over her bink. Which is kind of a bummer, but she just barely figured out her hands a little more so maybe she won't be exclusively a thumb sucker. As cute as it is to see her sucking on her thumb:) She chews and sucks on anything she can put in her mouth and can now hold up her head while on her tummy just great. She wants to crawl SO BAD, but can't seem to get her tummy off the ground. She's got the feet going and her arms more stable so that's a start. She does however have short legs which also doesn't help the whole crawling thing. She's a hoot with her laughing, smiling, cooing, noises, etc. Seems like she's talking to you sometimes.
We can't wait for both sets of grandparents to be here (plus some aunts, uncles and cousins) to spoil her rotten. She LOVES anyone who will just sit there and talk to her.
She is getting blessed on July 4th when the family is all here. That should be fun:)
So far we like our ward and neighbors. We don't really like the whole having to water our lawn very much (irrigating sucks), but it is what it is.
We had a garage sale this past weekend. It was pretty successful, but we didn't get rid of as much as we would have liked. Oh well. We made enough to pay for the work we needed to get done on Chan's truck and a little to put towards getting our brakes fixed. Fun stuff!
I got a new desk for the office as well. It is SOOO nice to have more space! Now I just have to get it organized. Things are starting to get more unpacked, but we still have a few boxes her and there that still need to get unpacked.
Alli has been growing out of everything lately, so I went on Craigslist and found some clothes for her. I got a ton of cute stuff! Including some adorable shoes!
Anyway, things are going great and everyone is healthy and happy!:)
I did take some more pictures so I'll post those soon! Take care everyone!
