Happy Birthday Jack!!

You are one crazy little guy.

And we love you tons.

You make everyday exciting,

and definitely keep us on our toes.

Happy Happy Happy Birthday!!

 

 

 

So Thankful!

So incredibly THANKFUL for an AMAZING husband, BEAUTIFUL children, and a pretty BLESSED life.  

9 Months Old.

Wow that went by quick.

So many things you've learned to do.

It's hard to even pick.

We'll start with your crawling, 

its really gotten fast.

Sitting around all by yourself,

is now a thing of the past.

You really know how to grow those teeth,

you've got 3 and 3 more on the way!

You've been using them to try out new foods,

and you also have lots more to say.

You babble a lot and it sure is cute,

when you say dada and mama.

My favorite is "blahblahblahblah",

and you're drooling more than a llama. (do llamas drool?)

You are now 28 inches long,

and a cute, pudgy 18.9 pounds.

My little baby is growing up.

Yes she is growing by leaps and bounds.

standing, crawling, and growing teeth!

Anna is growing so fast!!!  And doing new things all the time.  She has been standing up on things for a bit now but she has recently started letting go and trying to balance. 

She is crawling all over and is pretty dang quick!

She has some snack residue on her mouth in this first one but I had to get her doing this super happy smile.  You can even see her little bottom teeth in one picture.

Autumn

We had our big leaf raking day on Saturday.  It was gorgeous outside and we had lots of leaves needing to be raked and bagged (7 bags worth!)

The kids helped with the job but Jack enjoyed running through, jumping in, and throwing the leaves in the air.

For Mom

Anna wore the cute little Navy outfit you sent!  It was a hit!   Thanks for thinking of her!  We miss you!

 

Teeth Time

Anna already got her two bottom teeth and they seemed to come in with minimal complaining.  This time is different.  I can see her swollen little top gums and the white tooth pressing out almost through but not quite.  She has been spontaneously bursting into tears after putting her fingers in her mouth today and I am just hoping it will make its way out soon!  Here is her sad little face this morning. 

Halloween Night

The boys donned their costumes one last time to make their way around the neighbor trick or treating and loading up their bags.  It was a bit wet out but the rain held off just until we made it back home.  phew.  Anna decided to stay home and help Daddy with passing out candy.
