9 Months

Wow! It sure has gone fast! She is getting cuter and cuter, but that's just a Mommy's prerogative to think so! She is jabbering more and more. When you say "bye-bye" she waves her fingers, but down at her side. She is becoming a very picky eater...get this...she'd rather have sweet potatoes over fruits?!?!? She, of course, loves Mt Dew icee's. (Never fear, she isn't getting very much Mt Dew). She's crawling faster and faster and getting into everything. She's standing up on her own and has been for a while. She'll be taking off walking before we know it.Dr's Report-

She was bouncing up and down in this one!

Our First TP Incident

Thankfully, the roll was just about out.

2 Beautiful Little Friends

Wednesday, I was able to have two of my little church friends over and play with my new toy. I told their Mommy to take a day out and to take her time. Her youngest told me, "Mommy likes to get rid of us. She likes the peace & quiet. Daddy's at work, so she'll really have peace & quiet." :)
They were quite the troopers and we had fun all day! We started out with lunch at Taco Bell and then came home for dressy pictures. After, they decided they wanted to make "crafts," so we all made a card. Our card session turned out quite successful, so we walked to the library and read books, had a puppet show, and played the computer. It was time for Wesley to get off of work, so we walked back home and then turned around and walked to McD's for supper. (McKiah's choice!) Then we walked and walked around downtown posing in all kinds of peculiar places (if you could have only heard the girls!) :) We ended up stopping at the park, played for a little while and then continued on with some more pictures. Our LONG walk ended at DQ for a reward. It's a good thing we walked all day! :)

















There's way too many to show you, but we had a lot of fun!

While the Cat's Away, the Mice Will Play

This is what happens when Mommy is taking a nap on Sunday afternoon and Daddy is watching Baby...

Not to worry, he had it all cleaned back up before I even woke up!

I Am Still Alive, But Barely...

My 1st Mother's Day

Things have been a little crazy around here and they don't seem to be slowing down for a few more days!Jr/Sr Banquet was last Friday and Wes and I are the Jr sponsors. So, that meant we were in charge. Let's just say, I'm glad that's over with!!!

The guys thought they were "all that!"

This weekend is our Jr Church yard sale, so were working hard on that...off to go find some treasures to put in.

Mother/Daughter Banquet

Just a couple of pics from our church's banquet.She's really into it... :)

8 Months (a few days past)

Arilynn is just about impossible to get to sit still for a picture!! I even gave her my cell phone and that didn't work either. She is a very busy body and loves to move and explore! I managed to get a few and I'm just sticking with them!I know this one's blurry, but it cracks me up!Moving along to her next destination.
