13 Months Old

Blakely you are growing way too fast! You are such a sweet little girl and we are having so much fun with you.Well, I wouldn't say that you are officially walking yet, but you have taken about 5-8 steps between me and your daddy. You are still very cautious about letting go of something and taking that first step. I know you can do it but you are just taking your precious time. You crawl and cruise all over the house. You are into everything!You are saying new words everyday. You try to repeat what we are saying. It is so cute. I think your favorite word to say is bye, bye. I guess since we are always on the go. Having two dogs in the house keeps you busy with always saying “dog, dog, dog.” If you see a picture of a dog or a statue you start pointing and saying “dog, dog.” You say outs for outside. You will crawl to the front door or the door to the garage and start saying outs… You love being outside! Blakely you are able to point to your mouth, nose and sometimes eyes. Reading all you books is one of your favorite things to do. You will go to where your books are, pull them all on the floor and start flipping all the pages. Sometimes I think you just like to pull things off of the shelves. You love to take things out of baskets/boxes and then put them back in. You can entertain yourself for a while doing this. You are still a great eater. You eat anything we do. You really love your fruit, especially bananas. Scrambled eggs and toast are your favorite for breakfast. Lunch and Dinner is usually some type of meat, veggie and fruit. If you have already eaten and we eat after you, you will basically beg for our food. You want what we are drinking and eating. Your daddy has been giving you ice cream lately and you act like you can’t get enough of that yummy ice cream.
You are a true sweetie and we love you so much!!!

Go Hogs!!

Saturday we went to go tailgate before the AR/AL game. We had such a good time and you enjoyed walking around in the parking lot. We didn't go to the game, because I just don't think I want to take a baby to a game yet. Maybe in a couple of more years. Debbie, Mark and Marisa it was good to see you all!Blakely you are too funny when you are walking-you stick that tongue out as far as you can.

I'm in a big girl seat!

Blakely we moved your car seat around so you can finally see what is going on. I was going to wait a little longer to move you around, but you just keep getting so hot turned backwards. You really enjoyed seeing all there is to see.

Labor Day Weekend

Yes I am a little late on getting this posted, but we have been busy. We had a wonderful weekend with family. Your Uncle Kenny, Aunt Terri, cousins Darby, Colby and Zach came to see us. We actually had another birthday celebration for you. They wanted to come to your actual party, but wanted to stay longer so they all came for the long weekend. You had so much fun playing with them. You especially enjoyed playing soccer with everyone. Uncle Kenny held you while he was running around and you LOVED it. You thought you were such a big girl. We want to thank you all for coming to see us. We wish you all lived closer so we could all hang out together more often. We love you all and miss you!!!!I also only took 3 pictures. We were having so much fun I forgot about the camera. You were about to take a nap before I took the picture of you and Darby. You had to have your blankee in your mouth.
