11 Months Old

Sally turned 11 months old today!! I think I say this every time and I will say it again....I can't believe how fast the time goes!! I am so not ready for ONE!! She weighed in (unofficially) at 14 lbs 7 oz (no weight gain now for a few months) and 27 1/4 inches long, and still just one tooth (and we do brush it!). She is so much fun and she always keeps us laughing.

So....below is my attempt at some 11 month snapshots....I think I am in the market for a faster camera.....whatayathink?!

Maybe we should try the chair.....

Oh yes we are "SOOOO BIIIGG"

Ok, how about standing by the chair??

Well folks you get the picture....sigh. Let's talk about that faster camera. However, when she woke up from her nap before we went outside she had some really great smiles for me.

Oh yeah, and did I mention that she has A tooth?


Wet curls after naptime.
The prettiest blue eyes you ever did see.

We have some more really fun pictures from our weekend in Wyoming coming soon so keep checking back!

Fun Times

Sorry I have been slacking so badly in the blogging department. I have great intentions of posting weekly and before I know it another month has gone by....the story of my life. Below are a ton of pictures in no particular order of our happenings over the last couple of months. Sally is doing great, she is so much fun and learning new things everyday. I can't believe she will be one in a little over a month. Hope a naked baby bum doesn't offend anyone...I couldn't resist. Feel free to leave a comment!! Happy days to everyone.

Special company - the boys spent two nights with us. Sally loves Olan, I came into the living room and she was all snuggled up reading her bible with him....I am so sad I didn't get a pic. It was too cute.

She loves pushing this cart around and she hollers when she gets stuck....

My folks and Byron's folks come in January for a weekend, we had all kinds of grandparent fun.

Auntie Jill and Kelli came for a week in December......we really miss them.

Sally enjoyed her first Christmas. It was just us three on x-mas morning so it was really special. Mom and Dad showed up around 10:30 or so, the house smoked up because my monkey bread bubbled over in the oven, the sewer backed up a few hours later, Byron had to go to work and turn off the fire alarms, and the next day I lost my cell phone with other xmas pics and videos. (I had previously left my camera down south at some friends house) So these are the treasured pics taken with the trusty 35mm. Doesn't it sound like the Grizwald Christmas Vacation? It certainly felt like it.

10 Months Old On Sunday

There are a few people waiting to see these cute pics that we got taken today so hope you enjoy them. Later tonight or tomorrow I will try to get some pics of x-mas up.

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!

Happy Holiday's to everyone! Sally's 9 month b-day has come and gone. She is as happy and as healthy as ever. She weighed in at 14 lbs 2 oz and 26 inches long. She is still just a little 1/2 pint and "barely on the charts" as the doc put it, but no need to be concerned. She can crawl really fast, she loves pulling up and holding on with one hand, she can wave bye bye, do "so big", patty cake, give loves, and dance ( I'm sure there are others I am forgetting). The other day she was looking at a book and pointing to all the little objects on the page and saying "blah tah tah" ....... that's what I do when we read books (however, I don't say blah tah tah :o)). Already at 9 months old she doing things she sees us do. She also does her chitter chatter and moves her hands while she is talking....surely I don't do that *grin*. It is so fun to see all the funny things she does.

Auntie Jill and Kelli, and mamaw and papa are all coming to our house for Christmas - we can't wait to see you!!

Below are some fun "holiday" pics. Gramma Carie sent this pretty dress for punkin (it is a 12 month dress and she is currently wearing 6 month clothes) it was a little big, but that made it even more fun, she was sooo pretty!! It is really hard to get her to sit still - she is constantly on the go.

Picking out some fun outfits from Hanna Anderson - I'm teaching her young!!

Helping with laundry, she loves being inside of baskets, sometimes I even push her around the house.

Thanksgiving

Finally, a post ....We had a great Thanksgiving with my folks and family. Sally and I went up early and spent the whole week, we had lots of fun with mamaw, papa, cousins, aunties and great grandparents too. Sally has perfected her crawling and is quite fast when she wants to go see Ruckus. She is also pulling up and learning what "no" means :o). Oh yes, and we finally got a tooth!! It seems like we watched it forever before it finally popped through. We are enjoying some winter weather and hope everyone is doing well.

**I just added a link over to the right that says "Video's of Sally". Once you see the video remember to click on the "more from user" tab to see recent video's.


The pretty table for Thanksgiving...


All of us - I think there were 14 of us total

Sally enjoying her sweet and mashed potatoes.

There was a water leak out in our street the other day so the city came and tore up the pavement, dug a huge hole and fixed it.....this kept Sally entertained for at least 30 min!! They can fix leaks in front of our house anytime. :o)

Uh oh....

Sally loves her cousin Maria.
