Malorie 8 months!

Tomorrow our sweet Malorie will be 8 months old! I cannot even believe it!
I have been horrible about posting info about both girls....so I am going to start!! We'll see how well I keep up with it!

8 month stats:
14lbs. 14 ounces (taken this past week at your GI appointment)
We were happy to know that you are finally on the charts....3rd-5th percentile! Yea!
Not sure on your measurements......but I do know that everything is measuring symmetrical!

Your schedule:
Awake: around 6-7 a.m.
Bottle: around 7:00
Cereal/Fruit: 8:00
Nap: around 8:30/9:00
Bottle: 11:00ish
Lunch: 12:00ish (veggie)
Nap: 1:00
Bottle: 3 or 4
Dinner: 6:00
Bottle/Bed: 8:00

Malorie you are such a happy girl! You love to play in the floor with toys and really enjoy watching your big sister! You get so excited when Cody comes around and you love love love your Daddy!

One of Mommy's favorite times with you is when I first pick you up after a nap or in the morning, you just let me hug and hug you! You also make a little sound....then I echo and it becomes a game! I love it!
You are most definitely becoming a Momma's girl....just like your sister!

You started sitting up about 2 months ago and are now pretty good at it!
You also just in the last 2 weeks have started scooting everywhere....you look like you are going to crawl...up on all fours but then you scoot! You are very determined!

You love baby food and especially cereal and oatmeal! You have just this past week started eating puffs......of course little tiny pieces!!
I wish you liked your bottles more....but you are sometimes just too busy to eat!

We love you to pieces and just feel so blessed to be your Mommy and Daddy!

Hopefully later this week, I will update on Delanie......more to come!

Please Pray....

I am writing this post to ask you to pray for my brother and sister-in-law...Jamie and Shelley!
Shelley has a blog, you can go here to check it out. Shelley does an amazing job of telling their story and situation!
God is big and we know that HE has a great plan......we just must trust!

Thanks for going to the Father on behalf of my family!

Easter......a week late :)

We had an amazing Easter Sunday this year! Delanie is still saying "Jesus Rose Again" Mommy! It was so much fun getting to tell Delanie all about Jesus and what he has done for us!
The weather was amazing and we spent the whole day with family, playing outside!
Here is our family.......we are so blessed!
I love this of Delanie kissing Malorie, she likes her most of the time :)
Little Miss M is growing!! She has such a sweet personality, although she is working on getting her own voice around here!
M had to have an egg too!

D found an egg.......she had so much fun!
Now enjoying a bite of candy "tandy" as she calls it!

Memory Lane!

This is Delanie's first sink bath in February of 08!! She loved it!!
Here is Malorie today in her first sink bath!! She wanted to stand up and was very squirmy so I am not sure how many more she will have.....at least for now! With all that said, she did love the bubbles!

Breakfast today!

Here are the girls this morning during breakfast!! This was actually Malorie's first time in the highchair! She is so little, that it has not been necessary......but she was a big girl this morning and enjoyed her rice cereal while D and I had whole wheat waffles!
Sweet girl~ we think we have finally found the right medicine for her tummy! She has had such a hard time with acid relfux!
My big girl! She is such a great big sister and constantly plays and talks to Malorie!

I am so blessed:)

Our Girls!!!

Delanie is doing a great job being a "Big Sister!!" She loves Malorie and asks to hold her quite often! Malorie loves to watch Delanie play and loves it when D talks to her! It is so much fun to watch! I cannot wait to one day see them playing together!

Sesame Street Live!

One of Elmo's biggest fans!!
Delanie posing with Mommy!
Smiling with Nana!
Sitting in her chair all by herself!
Waving and yelling "Hi Elmo........Hi Elmo" (the little boy in front of us kept telling her that she needed to be quiet.........her certainly does not know Delanie does he??)
A really cute show!
Ice Cream at 11:00 in the morning.......what a treat!
D was bored toward the end and needed to run off some energy!
hmmm......which toy do I want??

We had a great time at Sesame Street Live!!
