On the Move!




That's right folks. There is NO stopping me now! I am exploring all over the place. I go from one room to the next checking things out. Eating whatever I can find along the way. My mama does the finger sweep quite often on me. I don't like it AT ALL. I wish she would let me enjoy the small twigs, leaves, strings, fabric bits, and whatever else I find. I work hard to get them off the carpet. They are my treats, but she comes in and takes them from me. I get really mad!!




And for your viewing pleasure. My mama made me this outfit. She was very excited about it, so I thought I would share it with you.

New Look!



Emma has a new look. I think she looks 12! When I told her that, she gave me 2 thumbs up. This nice little (expensive) piece of metal is going to push a tooth forward that is stuck slightly behind another tooth. She is really starting to look older to me. Speaking of older. She is at camp this week. I am ready to give her a good squeeze. This is the first time she has been away from home for more than a night. She doesn't like to be away to much. Everytime I have talke to her she has been so happy and giggly. I can't wait to see her on Saturday. She is such a sweet child and I hope and pray that the sweet heart she has will stay with her forever!!

9 Months!




Sara Beth is already 9 months old. She had a check up and weighed in at 17 lbs 10 ozs. She is crawling all over the place. She has discovered that she can pull up on everything! She is eating everything in site, and is growing like a weed.






She got a swing to go on our swing set and is in LOVE!! She gets so happy and swings her feet. She actually laughed out loud when we first pushed her in it.


She is generally a happy girl. She has her moments, like when she sees food but isn't getting it, but all in all is a good little girl!! We are so blessed to have her in our family. She keeps us busy and laughing!!!

Bathtime

This is a shot of me taking a bath in my Memaw's sink (a long time ago).
So when we were at Nanny's a few weeks back. I had to get a couple of shots of Sara Beth doing the same thing. The sink is perfect for giving a little one a bath!! You will also see NO resemblance between her and I. Looks like I had nothing to do with it!!




Crazy!


This is a picture of Emma's 4th birthday. Be still my heart!! Isn't she the cutest? That isn't what I think is so crazy. Beside her is Leah, she had just turned 1. Can you see the resemblance in her and Sara Beth. It is unbelievable how much these two look a like (and scream a like!!). I just though it was interesting when looking at this picture. Thought you might find it interesting too.

Strawberries!


It's that time again!! A few weeks ago we went strawberry picking. We HAVE to do this every year. Emma LOVES strawberries! In fact, once she starts picking, she can't stop! She has a hard time letting them stay on the bush. It's the "just one more" mentality. She just can't stop herself! Here are a few shots of the girls and picking. Mama didn't get to pick any, Sara Beth's stroller didn't fit in between the rows. She had to be carried!!




Sweet girl in the strawberry patch.

One with Nanny and all the loot!!

Enjoying the fruits of their labor!

I look at these pictures and am reminded how blessed I am! I love these kids so much it is scary.

Toothless Grin!



I love it, love it, love it!! I think she is super cute with that big hole in her smile. She was tickled pink when she saw her new smile. I must admit, I was too. Cutie!!! The one beside it is also loose. I told her to work on that other one, because kids that are missing their front two teeth are super duper cute! Oh, my Leah is growing so fast! Her legs are getting longer by the day. I didn't give her permission to grow this fast. Where does the time go?
