"Mom, I look perfect."

Hannah, all dressed and ready with only minimal help from Mommy, waiting for her knight in shining armor to come home from work and take her on a date. This was too precious not to post. :)

Weekend Fun

Susannah turned 1 last week, so we got to see family and celebrate her birthday on Saturday in Franklin!

Little Beauty!

Getting cleaned up with mommy after her cake.

Uncle Petey is hilarious!

Eating peas and wishing for a cupcake.

Can't seem to snap a shot of all four sitting still. This might have to be our Christmas card. 

Little Bear

It's rake safety month. Wear your helmet!

Such a big girl!

"Mommy, I'm chilly."

Li'l Wil Gil

Little Wilson, Charis' hamster, went missing. For the second time. Sometime in the night on Wednesday or Thursday he escaped from his cage, mysteriously descended my 4+ foot tall computer desk unharmed, and disappeared. We searched high and low. I thought he might have fallen victim to a beagle. 

Late last night I jokingly told Mike that I had asked some ladies to pray for Wilson. Immediately we heard a little scritch scratch... Coming from the dollhouse right in front of us... And look at who was coming in through the front door!

This is the stuff Beatrix Potter books are made of.

8 months

Two teeth, lots of slobbery kisses, everybody's baby in this house... One happy eight month old boy! I can not describe how much we love our little man. 

Here are more fun pics from recently. We got to see Granna & Grandaddy, Jon & Kelly, and all three cousins Max, Rudy & Layla. I don't know if I can post pics of Layla yet, but she will soon be officially our niece!

Cousin Max!

Rudy! I

Let's play mad gab. You read Charis' little story and translate it  before reading the answer key below. She did this completely by herself one afternoon.

Answer:

"Abby sees a squirrel. She gets her gun and shoots Nick the squirrel." 

A story Uncle Petey would be proud of.
