Juliette - 10 months Old

Well our baby girl is 10 months old today. Where does all the time go? She has been such a blessing. She is such a happy baby. This month has brought much of the same as last. She is starting to take little cruising steps around furniture. She has learned that screaming REAL loud will get her attention. You look at her after the scream and she starts smiling. One of her favorite past times is to climb under the coffee table. Sometimes she will sit up underneath and she gets stuck and boy does she let you know. She started on real food this past month (veggies mushed up and french fries, LOL). But last night we had spaghetti and SHE LOVED IT. Of course I took pictures, to cute. We have been busy and will be for the rest of the month. But being busy means a lot of pictures, so much to look forward to.

MMMM...... GOOD...................



I had to undress her after that meal. So here is Chunky Munk standing at the table.




There she goes under the table. (yes she has a birth mark on the back of her leg).

Disney Trip

We are Home!!!

We have made it home from a wonderful vacation. We had a wonderful visit with family in Florida and a great time in Disney World. As you can imagine I took a lot of photos (over 1700). So as you can imagine it will take me a while to get more photos on here.

Highlights of trip.
Juliette's first plane ride went smooth. She sleep and played and never cried during the plane ride.

It rained Saturday. When I say rain I mean it was a Monsoon. REALLY it was the most rain the Tampa area had received in one period since 1952. When we left the condo the water was up to mid tire in some spots. It really scared me. But we made it.

We visited the Parrish side of the family. We enjoyed visiting with Grandma and Grandpa and Pam. I am sure the kids made them exhausted. Because both of them were on full blast while there.
We visited the Nannie (Taylor). We had fun visiting her also. She tried to feed the kids everything.

We played on the Beach and in the pool with Gran B, Poppa G and Uncle Mitch. Below is the picture of Jackson attempting to write his name in the sand all by himself. I didn't even know he was doing it until he came and got me to show me. Juliette love to eat the sand so we had to put her in a baby pool and Jackson enjoyed it also.

We took Jackson one night crabbing (first time ever). It was Hilarious. If you ask Jackson about it this is his exact words "They snap snap at Mommy" while using the snapping motion with his hands. Jackson would throw the net at the crabs hoping they would crawl in. Jonathan would basically chase them towards Jackson and I(the reason they snap snap at me). I went to catch one and chopped him in half, LOL. So we are definitely not professionals.

Juliette decided she LOVES bread and will not eat her food when we are all at the table. Jackson and her loved the bread at the Columbian.

We visited with Elisa, Emma Jo and Kaliegh. We also visited Tiffany and Hunter. All of which in Orlando.

Last but not least we went to Disney World. We attended the Mickey's Not so Scarey Halloween Party. We went as Peter Pan-Jackson, Tinkerbell-Juliette, Jon-Jonathan, and Wendy-Jennifer. This will have to be another long post.

As you can read we did a lot in a little time. But we did have a great time. More to come on Disney.

Juliette - 9 months Old

I feel like I just blogged(yesterday) about her turning 8 months. WOW!! Anywho! She is getting around pretty darn good. She follows her momma 75% of the time and Jackson 25%. Here are the 9 things I want to remember or milestones she has accomplished.

1. Juliette's hair is now a head full, She has "bangs" because that part of the hair is what is left from when she was born. I have been tempted to cut it but I have always been told it is bad luck to cut a baby's hair before they tum one. I know not true but i don't want to chance it.

2. You can now pull up on almost everything. So I know walking is just right around the corner. When she pulls up she just smile because she knows she has accomplished something. Plus to her it was hard work.

3. Juliette loves to "play" with Jackson. Play consist of her screaming (a fun scream) or laughing as Jackson does something around her. BUT she almost insist that Mommy or Daddy is setting on the floor also.

4. She is still a Mommy's girl. Separation anxiety is just right around the corner.

5. She now has two front bottom teeth with another that can felt but not seen. She still loves chewing on stuff (hands).

6. Change her diaper is becoming a chore because she wants to be on the go.

7. Juliette loves the the bath tub. We give them a bath together and she loves it. BUT hates to get her face washed or even wiped.

8. She loves to cuddle with me right before I put her in her bed at night. She has her cereal bottle then she turns and wants on my shoulder to put her face on my chest and we cuddle. I LOVE IT. Matter of fact I do it every night because i love it so much. Plus Jonathan doesn't mind. Then when you get up in the morning it is a race between Jackson and me to get to see you first. Jackson is so good with her and he loves her. I love to get in there first to see her beautiful smile in the mornings.

9. I LOVE YOU DUDDERS (my nickname for her, don't ask?). It is true that when you have more then one child your heart gets bigger. I love both of my children.

2009 First Football Game

GO DAWGS GO!!

We had a fun time at the first football game of the season, even though we got wet. It rained right before the game started for about 20 minutes and then again off and on during the first quarter. But it was still fun. Like always i took a lot pictures. Jackson had a great time at the Junction before the game started and sleep most of the game. That was my favorite part was holding him in my arms, it is not that often that i get to do that. I have 4 favorite pictures then I made collages of the rest. Enjoy!

Look what Season it is....

I could have swore I heard Jonathan singing "It's the most wonderful time of the year....." LOL!! You got it folks! It is football season. I am excited also. I use to love this season because of the games but now I love it because it is time that Jackson looks forward to, to spend fun time with his daddy. He calls it "hautball", like i said in previous post we are working on speech, hahahaha. GO DAWGS GO!!!!! In the words of Jackson "Where's my bell?" Can I get a "Who let the Dawgs OUT, Woof, WOOF, WOOF!!!" "More COWBELL, PLEASE!!!!"

DO DAWGS GO!!!!!!!

Hopefully State will not be the "butt" of all the jokes this season. LOL!!
