9 months...

Where has the past 9 months gone? It seems to be flying by. Mary Grace is doing so much. Eating real food and making a mess, drinking out of a big cup, playing independantly with her toys and bringing us so much joy. She loves to make us laugh by making funny faces. Her favorite book is an animal book that has a picture of dogs. She says, "DOGGIE!" She finally has gotten one tooth. And is finally sleeping through the night!!!

Judson turns 5!

Judson turned 5 on July 7th. He had a great birthday. He woke up ready to open some presents. We let him open a few from us just to get the day started!!Next, he wanted birthday muffins with a candle!! I made some blueberry muffins for the birthday boy!! Neal and my dad took him to lunch at Anne's for hotdogs!! He invited several friends to come slip n slide and celebrate his special day!! They had a great time. Neal greased the slip n slides with baby oil. I'm not sure who had more fun the kids, or Neal. And yes, Neal did try out the slip n slide. They are not as long as they used to be. They come with inflatable boogie boards now!! Finally, we had a family dinner and then opened presents. It was a great day. I can't believe I have a 5 year old!!!
