BUSTED!

Not only is he mobile, but he is figuring out how to open everything! Childproofing can't stop this kid!!

Our Little Tennis Pro

Deanna has shown a lot of interest in tennis lately, so we bought her a racket and Jamie took her out to the tennis courts with her wings and crown on, of course. They played for about 45 minutes and she did really well. She naturally has a great eye and follow through for the ball. Maybe she will follow in Mommy's footsteps!

Braden's First Time at the Beach

Braden had his first mouthful of sand the other day at the beach. It was a beautiful day, but the water was still too cold to get in. We were there for about 2 1/2 hours and he loved crawling around in the sand and feeling it in his hands. It was a great day!

Braden Love the Swing

Braden loves swinging. He could sit there for hours giggling. So, while Deanna played on the playground, he and I hung out at the swing set. His giggles are so contagious!

Deanna's Photoshoot

Deanna loves using the camera and taking pictures. The other day I walked into the living room and noticed she was using the camera. She told me she was in the middle of a "photo shoot". These are just a couple of the pictures that she took with the camera.

Hanging out at the Zoo

The kids love going to the zoo, so we spent a Saturday there checking out all the animals and, of course, riding all the rides. Braden had a blast on the train!

Deanna Meets Baby Lilly

Our friends, Ryan and Jessica, just had a baby. Deanna was so excited and wanted to go over their house to meet the baby. So, we went and she propped herself up on the couch and held the baby like a pro. She promised to teach Baby Lilly how to be a princess when she got a little older! Congrats Ryan and Jessica!

Braden 10 months

Braden is now 28 inches and weighs 21 lbs. He is crawling around and pulling himself to his knees. He plays and interacts with Deanna and it is so much fun to watch. He has 1 tooth and 4 others coming in at the same time. He is full of smiles, giggles, and loves when his belly is full of food! We are counting down to his 1st birthday! Baby steps, whole milk, and turning around the car seat! Good times to come!
