Pumpkin Patch 2013

Our church sells pumpkins every year and every year we take a family picture out there.  My kids, especially Parker, loves it when the pumpkins arrive and is very sad to see them go.  This year was even more special because it was Ansley's first time out there.  She seemed to enjoy the pumpkins. 

Birthday party.....Monster style!

We celebrated Parker's 4th birthday with a Monsters University them.  Parker absolutely loves that movie and the first one and all the monsters.  His favorite is the green guy with one eye, Mike Wazowski.  We decided to just have the party at our house and let the kids play.  We got pumpkins for everyone to decorate and to take home.  Parker was all about his party and it turned out to be a great party!

More Wolfpack Fun!

I try to remember to take my real camera to the football games but usually forget it or forget to take it out of the car.  Here are a few more pics from the 2013 football season....

8 months old!

Ansley turned 8 months old on September 22nd!  I am so amazed at how fast this first year is flying by.  I can't believe that in a few short months we will be celebrating her first birthday!

Ansley is sitting up really well now, she is clapping and will say "Yea" when clapping.  She says "ma ma and da da a lot and there are some other "words" that I can't quite figure out.  She has 3 teeth now and is working on getting the other top one in as we speak.  She has grown quite fond of mommy and if I am in the room she does not want anyone else.  However, she does fine when I leave her with others which is nice.  She is really into her toys now and knows what she wants.  She LOVES my cell phone and if it gets taken away she is not a happy camper. 

Ansley is eating 2 meals a day plus her bottles.  She is a descent eater and is more curious about "real" food.  We have started introducing some softer food, like nurti gran bars and she really likes those.  She loves her bottle and I fear she will have a hard time parting with it. 

As far as sleeping goes, she goes down around 7-7:30pm.  For some reason she has started waking up one time every night...I am hoping that will end real soon.  She is still sleeping great during the day, 2-3 naps depending on how long they are:)

These past 8 months have been so much fun and Ansley continues to bless our family in so many ways!  Happy 8 months sweet girl...We love you!!
