Hi there!

I have been a serious slacker in journaling about the kiddos. Kamryn is now nine months old. It is crazy to think she will be a year old soon. She is saying "hi" and "dada." The other day she said "bye-bye, Dada" for the first time. I think it was a fluke though because she hasn't said it again.

She is really starting to let her personality show more. She lets me know when she wants something and throws mini-fits when I put her in her car seat. I call them mini-fits because they are so tiny in comparison to what Grant did for the first two years of his life when putting him in his car seat.

She started signing about a month ago. So far she says "more" in sign language and we are starting to work on milk now. She is also standing for a few seconds on her own. She gets so excited and starts flapping her arms which causes her to fall down. She can walk behind one of those walker toys but it goes too fast for her and she falls.

Grant loves playing with his sister. He won't leave her alone most of the time and she gets annoyed by it. Of course Kamryn still thinks he is the funniest thing ever. It is a lot of fun watching those two...never a dull moment around here.

Ben and I were talking a few days ago about what a big boy Grant is turning into. I know I say that all the time but his thought pattern really amazes me. Most of the time I can't figure out where he comes up with this stuff. His favorite thing to do when he gets home from school is pretend like he is a teacher. He passes out papers and makes sure everyone (all his animals) is doing what they are supposed to be doing. He continues to be obsessed with animals and dinosaurs. We spend a lot of time these days searching the internet for new information and pictures of his favorite animals.
Okay, enough talk already...here are the pictures!


We went to visit Claire Bear and Luke last week.


Daddy and Grant on the carousel.

Kamryn's first walk in the wagon.


It was a little bright for Kam so she borrowed Bubby's hat.

My little valentine


This is what I do when I go to my cuz's house...


Playing dress up and putting on make up...for some reason my daddy says I can't play at Nat's house anymore.

Love it! I cannot believe how BLUE Kamryn's eyes are. She's such a little beauty. Crazy morning, but I had fun chatting with you for a few minutes, putting paper clips on Jesuses. :) We need to get together in a more relaxed environment soon (i.e. pedi's). :)

I love the make-up...that's so something Logan does. I always tell Jarrod we either have a future mortician or a cross-dresser on our hands...Lord help us!

I've loved getting on here and reading about you guys when I think to check Amy's blog...I never realized I could leave a comment without a blog until I created ours...I'm glad you guys are doing well. Both of your kiddos are just precious!
