Pics from AR

Here are some pics from our trip to AR. We had such a good time seeing everyone!









Early Christmas preview at Nana's house...Ellie loved her big floor dog!! And I'm sure she will love it just as much when she gets it again for Christmas :)







First time to eat avocado!



Riding in my new red car! (notice the Harley sticker that Papa added to it!)



Carson came to play with me! I loved showing him my doll stroller and trying to beat him up!(they are only 2 weeks apart)

Playing with the Boys!

Ellie had so much fun with the boys last Friday! We all met up at Meredith's for a fun lunch and play date. Look at these 3 precious little boys!


Cy loved holding Baby Owen!



He has the sweetest smile!










First Kiss! These two were way to occupied with each other for a group pic!

9 Months!













Ellie turned 9 months old yesterday and today we had her dr. appointment. Everything checked out fine and she didn't even have to get shots this time!


Stats: (she's still on the same growth curve that she has been on since 4 months)

Weight: 18 lbs. 7 oz. (50%)
Height: 29.5 in. (95%)
Head: 17.5 (60%)

Things she's doing:

-crawling everywhere (well, it's not a traditional crawl...more like army crawl with a worm move!)
-pulling up on anything she can
-still loves driving around in her walker
-likes her toys sometimes but would always rather play with anything that is not a toy
-we think she has said "Mama" and "Dada" (mama sounds more like "mum-mum" and she only says it when she is whining or needs something)
-learning how to wave "Hi" and "Bye"
-her top 6 teeth are starting to push through (the bottom 2 are already in)
-takes 3 (8 oz) bottles a day and eats 2 "food" meals a day
-loves eating her snacks (puffs and yogurt melts)
-wears a size 3 diaper
-wears 9-12 month clothes and is pretty true to size except for her long body (wears 12 month pj's to fit her long legs)
-rides in a big girl carseat now (still rear facing)

She is just growing so fast and changing everyday!!
