Tall Ships Festival

This past weekend we spent the day at the Tall Ships Festival at Dana Point Harbor. The weather was perfect, the food was great, the ships were cool, and the pirates were out in full force. We really loved all the pirates, they take reinactments very serious...Clint and I wondered if these pirates actually had day jobs, they were too convincing.
The ocean institute in on the harbor there, so Paiton was able to see all kinds of sea life and even a bird show. Paiton loves animals, you could say she is obsessed. It is so awesome to watch her little eyes light up when she sees something for the very first time.

Paiton at 8 months

8 Months

Today Paiton is eight months old, I can't believe it- she is getting so big. Paiton got her first tooth yesterday (bottom right), I thought the day would never come. Now that Paiton is eight months old she loves to stand on everything, she has been pulling herself up on furniture for about a month now...tables,chairs, couches, and she especially loves to stand up in her crib when she is supposed to be sleeping. Paiton also loves food now, mostly meat, I know gross, but I am just happy that she is eating. I weighed Paiton yesterday and she is 19lbs, we will be buying a new car seat pretty soon. Paiton is still not sleeping through the night, but last night she only woke up once, although I woke up several times anticiapting her waking up.
We are so in love with our precious baby and thank our Heavenly Father every day for blessing us with her, we can't imagine our lives without her.
We will post pics soon, our computer needs to be fixed and I am not sure how to download pics to the labtop.
