Almost 10 Months!

Our girl is almost 10 months old! Its amazing how quickly time goes and how fast she is changing. She really loves to stand and 'talk' to us. She will hold onto the edges and walk around things, like the container pictured above. I've seen her let go and try to stand on her own a few times, so she is testing it out. The best is when she hears music and moves her shoulders to the beat. It is so entertaining to sit back and watch her play!

The Anniversary Trip

Nana and Papa celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary in Nashville surrounded by lots of family. We surprised them with a special cake and had their wedding photos put in a new album (old one was broken). It was a great time.

Natalie loved to crawl into Aunt Beth's pantry and touch everything.

Ian and his cousin Cohen....needless to say A LOT of Star Wars games were played!

Where's the Star?

We've started giving some little cereal puffs to Natalie after meals. She enjoys picking them up and it entertains her pretty well while the rest of the family gets a chance to eat peacefully. We aren't sure exactly how it got stuck on her nose, but it was up there for long time before she got it off. It didn't seem to bother her and we all found it pretty cute!

Waking Up Brother

Natalie almost always wakes up before Ian in the morning. When its time to go in and get up her brother, he usually asks me to put her down next to him to snuggle. He makes a little spot for her and wants to cover her up with the blanket. They were extra giggly together this morning, so I dashed for the camera. Natalie got his nose and it was entertaining for both of them!
