Fear Less

So, today I counted how many times Marty fell over in 5 min. 10 times. Thats 120 times in hour. Yet he still keeps getting up. He is a good walker and he still falls down all the time.

It got me thinking that I need to be more fearless. There are things in life that knock us down or that are hard but we could all use a little lesson from Marty. Keep getting up! Do things that are hard and instead of pouting or quitting, act like its no big deal and do it again!

I will be having a booth at the upcoming Bridal Extravaganza at the South Town Expo Center (September 11th, come on by!) I won't lie, I am little nervous. But after watching my baby keep trying and smiling and seeing how fearless he is, I have decided to be more fearless!

World, bring it on!

I'm an Aunt again!

Meet Rion!

I just got back from a fun filled week in Santa Barbara, Moreno Valley, Disney Land and Arizona!

I need a vacation from my vacation but before I can rest I just have to post a few of my new nephew! He looks just like his daddy and is so sweet. I am hoping I can attend his baby blessing...

I ended up driving to Arizona with just Marty. I thought I might be a little insane in attempting such a long journey with the boy but it turned out to be a lot of fun. I find the Arizona desert to be really beautiful. Who knew I was a sucker for cactus? It was hotter than an oven and I even got to go scorpion hunting!

8-9-10

How could I not post on a day when I can say 8.9.10! I am at work right now ( I work randomly at a high school in their PE lab in the summer) and I get to put the date on everything! Its awesome!
Ha
So whats going on with the McNairy's you may be asking yourself? ( Let me at least pretend that you are asking your selves that)
Scott is in school and kicking chemistry's booty! O-chem is next semester and he is prepared for his booty to be kicked then. Hopefully all will be well and he will rock it, he is so smart! He is looking forward to visiting his family soon and see the beloved South Pasadena house that he grew up in! His dad recently retired and they moved back this month. I only saw the house 2 times pre-mission and don't really remember it and look forward to visiting it as well!

I am super busy with my photog-biz and am preparing for a bridal show in September. I have been assisting another photographer here in Utah and have been helping shoot weddings Th-Fri-Sat for a good portion of this month! It has been crazy busy but so much fun. I tell myself each day I am going to get back on the Weight Watchers bandwagon and all the cake and chocolate and candy at these weddings are killing me! I am devastated that summer is almost over and I didnt get to do half the stuff on my list! I am crossing my fingers that the fall will be warm enough to still do a lot of the things I planned for July.

Marty is walking! Not just a step here or there but like across an entire room. I love and despise his dexterity all at the same time. My babe is growing up too fast! ( I just realized how many times I have used and exclamation point in this post. sorry, life is exciting i guess) He really songs, especially the one about the monkeys teasing Mr. Alligator and is a happy guy. Recently he has started scrunching up his face and grunting and growling when he is upset instead of crying. He seriously looks as if you just told him the worlds milk supply has just run out. Then within .5 seconds he is back to normal. Its kind of funny and cute but in the please stop throwing tantrums kind of way. Love the kid

In other news... well actually I think thats about it. Hope to post more before 9-10-11
