Miriam's July Happenings

Most of the pictures of Miriam seem to be about helping in July. She is getting big (27 mon old) and be a really big helper. I'm trying to make cleaning fun and not overwhelming so she'll keep it up.
Vacuuming has always been a love/uneasy thing for her. She definitely likes it better on this side of the vacuum. Even today she backs away when the vacuum comes any where near her. (July 7).

Whenever we are doing anything in the kitchen the kids come running wanting to help. Miriam is especially fascinated with our popcorn pot and will get it out of the cupboard to play with. Here (July 9) I'm not sure if were actually cooking popcorn or if she was just pretending- both scenarios are equally likely.


Miriam is really good about mopping up spilled water, I love how energetic she is.
On July 23 my cousin got married in Monticello Utah and we went down for the celebration. This little cousin Jessi's mom was taking pictures of the bridal party so to keep her and her brother occupied my mom did a photo shoot of them. While in Blanding we had fun watching the Pioneer parade in Monticello.

Miriam has always loved all things with wheels and rides whatever she can. Here on July 25 she found one of the supports for the co sleeper and decided it looked just like a scooter. She 'rode' it all over the house looking very pleased with herself! Below shows off how good she rides her big wheel she got for her birthday (June 28).
She loves her Daddy and in this series of pictures taken July 27 shes copying how Daddy is standing. Somehow she looks more adorable trying to be all cool. The final video is her rendition of the traditional flying.
