Toward the end of May, Sailor and I flew to Washington for Jenna's graduation and to spend a few weeks there. Sailor and I missed Glen a lot (he couldn't get away from work or school for that long), but it was nice to see everyone and to have extra people to help and play with Sailor. I couldn't believe how fast the time went while we were there. We were so lucky to have gotten to visit for so long.
While we were in Washington:
- Sailor started to sing "Hubba bun, hubba bun, hubba bun", which is a song from Yo Gabba Gabba that says, "Hugs are fun, hugs are fun, hugs are fun." She knew what this meant because she would say it at appropriate times. For example, some of my family and Sailor and I were out in the hot tub one night. She walked over to me, wrapped her arms around my neck and said, "Hubba bun!!"
- Sailor learned "sorry" and "excuse me."
- I play the 'Motorboat, motorboat, go so slow..' game with Sailor when she's in a pool or hot tub. She learned it and would request it by singing "Mobabo mobabo."
- Started singing "doodoodoo" to the tune of the opening songs on the video Baby Songs.
- Sailor started to be a little more cuddly this month. Yay!!
- Sailor LOVES to swing ("shing, shing!"). Grandma and Grandpa bought her a swing and hung it in the backyard while we were there.
- Sailor started calling my dad 'Papa' and my mom 'Gamma'.
- Sailor started saying "book", "chichen" (chicken) and "no da do" (no thank you).
- When Sailor eats something she likes, she says, "I yike it!"
- Sailor has officially become a professional tantrum thrower. She arches her back, hits, throws herself on the ground, and has the most ear-piercing scream imaginable.
- Sailor LOVES boys, especially boys in the family. She has this special love for my dad, which caused her to follow him around and say, "Hi Papa, hi papa!" over and over until he would acknowledge her. She also had a special love for Nate and Roman once we got to Utah later this month.

| One day Jenna and I were sitting in the breakfast nook and we looked over and saw her sitting in this basket. I still don't know how she got in there but it sure was cute. |
 |
| Poor Jackson. |
 |
| While I was going through all of my old keepsake stuff, she found a pair of my old glasses. She loves to wear glasses ("gasses, gasses!!"). |
 |
| Sporting Uncle Justin's glasses on the way to the Mariner game. |
 |
| Sailor's first Mariner game!! |
 |
| We decided to move seats due to a couple of "obnoxious" men behind us. We explained to one of the Safeco employees what we were doing and they felt so bad that they brought this jersey for Sailor! I love good customer service. |
 |
| This concoction has Justin's name written all over it. |
 |
| You go girl. |
 |
| Sailor loves her Papa. |
 |
| She was so tired after the game that she fell asleep in Grandpa's arms on the walk out to the car. She was trying so hard to fight it so that she wouldn't miss any of the party. Sweet girl. |
 |
| Wiped out.. again. |
 |
| Grandma bought this swing and Grandpa put it up just in time for our visit :). Every time she looked out the window and saw it, she'd say "shing, shing!" until someone took her out. |
 |
| Lovin' the reverse camera again. |
 |
| Sailor loves the children's museum at home, so I decided to take her to the one in Olympia (which is way better) one day while everyone was at school/work. Katie and Paige met us there and it was a lot of fun. |
 |
| I took my eye off of Sailor for a second and the next thing I knew she had climbed into this bus and sat in the driver's seat. |
 |
| How cute is that little baby Jamba Juice?! |
 |
| Jenna's last choir concert. I spent most of the time chasing Sailor around outside, but I was thankful I got to hear at least a couple of the songs. |
 |
| Entertaining customers while we ate our frozen yogurt! |
 |
| Somebody's jealous. |
 |
| A friend from my parent's ward watched Sailor for me while I was at Jenna's graduation. She sent this picture to me to show me that they were having a Yo Gabba Gabba party. |
 |
| So proud of her! |

I used the same idea for Glen's Father's Day present for mine and Glen's dads. These were the additional pictures for it:
