Eleven Months

Yesterday was the Fourth of July and Wade turned eleven months!!! He celebrated his first Fourth of July by going to Snyder. He watched the parade and ate his first sucker. He enjoyed a chili dog, baked beans, and home made ice cream at the picnic at Shirley's. Then he watched the fireworks in the park. The fireworks were interesting but lasted too long for him. It was a great day!

Wade has fourteen teeth now!! The excessive drooling has subsided. He is eating and feeding himself more finger foods. He likes Cheerios and cut up grapes best. He can drink pretty well out of a cup too. He weighs 23 pounds even!

He thought his brother was pretty funny in the picture below.
He is pulling up on everything and has even stood alone for a few seconds.
He enjoys playing the piano some.
He is also fascinated with ceiling fans. Every time you walk into a room he pauses to look at the ceiling fan. He prefers them to be on, but he looks and studies the fans whether they are on or not. He also loves things with wheels. He loves to turn wheels around and around.

Vroom, Vroom!!

Gotta Love Little Boy Toys!!!!

Dishwasher

Rachel - 1 year - exactly
Luke - 11 months
Kate - 13 months
Wade - 10 months

I must have always thought babies playing in the dishwasher were too cute. I guess Wade is technically not in/on the dishwasher door, but close enough. Rachel had a lot more hair than the others. Kate just asked me if she (Kate) was a boy or a girl in that picture.

Hula

Here is a video of Luke he will absolutely hate when he is older. It makes me laugh.

Kate can do it too!

Did you catch her rolling her eyes before her second attempt? You probably have to make it big to see it. That girl and those eyes.

Little Miss Personality

When I was taking pictures of Rachel and Wade, Kate asked to have her picture made too. I immediately took her up on the offer. This is what I got...

She is so fun!! I love that smile to pieces!!

Ten Months

Yesterday this little guy turned 10 months!! That is getting just too close to a year for me.

He loves to crawl, clap, say ba ba ba, swim, be held, play, give kisses, and eat. His eye is still fixed!!
He has started to notice strangers and has a little separation anxiety when I hand him over, but he does good after I am gone. He has always been good to go to people. I knew the time would come when he would cry. Maybe this phase will be short. He has also been pretty whiny lately. I think it has a lot to do with teething since he drools non stop. I am just hoping the tooth/teeth come thru soon. The whining is torture!!
Yesterday Rachel turned ten years and Wade turned ten months. How cool is that!?!?

A Decade Already!!!

We just can't believe our sweet baby girl is turning 10 years old at 11:50pm tonight!! It has been a decade!! She is turning double digits!! Oh My!!!

We are just so proud of the young lady she is becoming!! She is a great daughter, big sister, student, and friend!!
She is five feet tall and weighs 76 pounds....all legs!
Her favorites include pink, hamburgers, volleyball, cheerleading, basketball, make-up, piano, playing with friends, swimming, dresses and skirts, ice cream, the store Justice, going out of town, the TV show Good Luck Charlie, and chicken nuggets.
She is getting ready to go to church camp for a week on Monday. She will be gone a whole week, and we won't get to talk to her. She is so excited and I am excited for her too.
Happy Birthday to you sweet Rachel!! We love you so much!! Thanks for making me a mom ten years ago!!
