Brinn Crawling

Here is a video of how much Brinn's crawling skills have improved. At the end, you can see what she does when she has something that might get taken from her. She uses her feet to turn herself around. If you want what she has, you have to come get it! Brinn is already figuring out what to do keep her stuff. Smart girl!

Littlest Cheerleader

 Raylee got a new outfit in the mail from her Grandpa Tim, and this past Sunday we couldn't help but to put it on her. It must have worked, because the Texans WON, and played a great game!


                                                         Here is their littlest cheerleader:

Can you count the rolls?

GO TEXANS!

Raylee has been crawling everywhere, and she can entertain herself for a while with this thing:

         Today is my PawPaws' 75th Birthday, so I wanted to make sure & say Happy Birthday PawPaw!   

                                                                           We love you!

Hello October!

  October is one of my favorite months of the year. I like crunchy leaves, sweatshirts, and bonfires. Also Paul's & my Mom's Birthdays are this month. I am looking forward to celebrating birthdays, a visit from my sister, and of course Halloween all this month. The weather is finally starting to cool down, which is a welcome break from summer. Hello Fall, welcome back!

  Raylee is doing well. Trying to get anywhere and everywhere. I got some pictures of one attempt:
                                                    
                                                                           Hey Mama!

Spotting her target:

A few moments later:

                                Mission Accomplished. I have a feeling this won't be the last time.


     Raylee has also been having fun with a toy that I got from my Auntie Susan. (Thank You!)  Here is a picture of Raylee eating singing into the microphone:

Finally, here is a video of Raylee playing with her toy. Hope you have a great weekend!

Weekend

This weekend we went to a BBQ at Paul's MawMaws' house. We got to see some family, and eat his uncle's delicious BBQ chicken. Raylee had a good time showing off all her new crawling skills.

    Then on Sunday we watched football. It was sad to see the Texans lose, but at least it was to the Cowboys. Raylee still showed her support for the team!

                                             She looked like a little boy with Daddy's hat on!

That's better!

Hope everyone has a great week!

Getting Our Exercise

Yesterday, the family decided we needed to get some exercise. We loaded up, and went to the community center to walk/jog a mile. It was nice to get some use from Raylees' stroller. She enjoyed getting pushed, looking at the squirrels, and we enjoyed burning some calories. Today Paul was off again, so there has been a lot of cooking today, probably making all the exercise irrelevant, but it was fun anyway!

Here is a picture of the cutie pie in her stroller:

Don't worry though, Raylee has been getting her exercise too, Within a matter of hours, she has almost mastered crawling. This video is from tonight, when she was trying to get some sunglasses. Yes, our carpet is blue, but it is clean and that's what matters right?

Hope you have a great rest of the week!

Happy Friday!

We are so glad that it is Friday! Friday's really are the best. Paul gets two days off, we get to relax, and sleep in if Raylee will allow it. We are really trying to make the transition to her crib every night. She will take her naps in there, but at night she wakes herself up, and can not go back to sleep. If I put her in my bed she will roll over and sleep for 8 HOURS! It is so tempting!


However lately she has been doing something that has made it a much easier decision to put her in her own bed. I caught her doing this today:

She was trying to scale my headboard to get to her paci. When she realized I had caught her I got this:

 It is so hard to resist that silly little smile. She was proud of herself! She can't even crawl yet, and she is already trying to climb! I have a feeling we are going to be in for some exciting times with this one! Hope everybody has a great weekend!
