9 month check-up

Lizzy went for her 9 month check-up last Tuesday the 19th and weighed 16lbs & 12oz, 26 nches long! She's graduated to the 10 percentile now for height and weight! She started crawling a few weeks ago and is starting to pull up too! It won't be long before we have another walker!

Fathers Day 2007

We decided to spend Saturday with Jody to celebrate Fathers Day. The girls and I woke up early and cooked daddy eggs, bacon, sausage and pancakes! We let daddy sleep of course which he thoroughly enjoyed! We spent the rest of the afternoon doing what he wanted! On actual Fathers Day Jody woke up regular time, got ready and left at 7:30am for the 8:00 prayer service. The girls and I did the usual wake up and get ready for Sunday School. We had to leave a little earlier than normal so the girls could be at "Donuts with Dad" @ 9:30, our annual breakfast at church. It's nothing big simply donuts, juice, coffee, etc. with kids and their dads! My dad came too so we had donuts with Daddy and Papa! We didn't have an evening service and went to my aunt's house for dinner! All in all it was a great day honoring DADS!

Dereks Graduation

Here are some pictures we took of my cousin Derek's High School Graduation. He graduated in Binkley Chapel which is on Southeastern Seminary's campus. He attended a Charter School in Wake Forest and this was the first graduating class of the school. Binkley is huge and with a graduating class of 38 it looked very empty! All my little cousins are growing up!!!

Crawley, Crawlerson

So Lizzy decided a few weeks ago that she was going to attempt to crawl. She has figured out it is much faster that rolling and spinning. She had a modified scooch/crawl for a couple of days, but has graduated to a full crawl this past week! She still gets places faster rolling and spinning, but it won't be long before she figures out she can crawl faster with more practice! She just turned 9 months 2 weeks ago so she's ahead of both of her sisters who didn't crawl until they were 10 months! I'll get some pics on here soon, hopefully action shots :-)

"Polly, Polly"

I have to brag on my middle child this morning, Anna Virginia! All on her own she has pooped twice and peed twice on the potty just in the past 2 days! She just says, "Polly-Polly", which means I have to go potty! This time we're not pushing. . .hopefully it will work faster than with her sister who could write her name before she was potty trained, she wasn't trained until she was 3 years old! That's the difference between kids!!!

Memorial Day 2007

We took a trip to the North Carolina Zoo on Memorial Day! The girls had been bugging us to go for weeks and since Jody had the day off we decided to go! The Asheboro Zoo is only a couple of hours from our house, and we went with the Holderby's, some friends of ours. Sean & Amy have become good friends of ours and their little girl Makayla and Emma have become best buds! Makayla is a year older than Emma but they get along pretty well! We were able to see the Polar Bears, Giraffes, Elephants, Rhinos, Sea Lions, Bison, and many more (too many to name)! It was a hot day at the Zoo, but the girls had a blast and they slept really well that night! The girls each bought a stuffed Monkey and we were on our way home! It was a good day! Enjoy some of the pictures we took while we were there:-)
