Jared and Orion carried the banner for Rix Stix in the Rexburg parade. Rix Stix is the percussion ensemble at BYU-I. You can see them in their shirts in the pictures below. Nikki and Allie did not go to the parade. Everyone went to a family BBQ at the Cramers' house in the afternoon, and we didn't want to overstimulate little Allie. She had a wonderful morning at home with mommy and then did very well on our outing to the Cramers. It ended up being a long day that exhausted us all, but we had a wonderful time with family. We were really happy to be able to spend the holiday with family, and we look forward to seeing more family in August!
Here are some pictures from the day:

Some other news is that Allie had her "2 week" doctor's appointment last Wednesday when she was 19 days old. She weighed in at 7 lbs 12.5 oz and measured 21 inches long, with a head circumference of 14.25 inches. This put her in the 23rd percentile for weight, 67th percentile for height, and 47th percentile for head circumference. She initially put on some weight and looked a little chubby, but she has since grown in length and doesn't look too chubby. But she is still as adorable as ever!
Mom and Dad are doing well. Jared is keeping busy with school and work. Nikki is keeping busy with taking care of Allie. We feel so blessed to have Allie in our home.
i love the picture of her sleeping on your shoulder!!! so sweet!
