Emily is cool

Happy Halloween almost a month later......

Libby is almost 8 months old now! She is starting to crawl like a bear on her feet instead of her knees, and she holds her bottle with one hand and two feet so she can rub her hair with the other hand, she loves hair. Sometimes I'll be holding her on my hip and one of the other girls will walk by and she'll reach down and grab a hold of their hair so tight they can't go anywhere until i untangle them. its really funny to see because she gets so excited like she caught a fish or something. Shes a good baby and we love her!

Kaydance and Irelynn

They are buddies! They love to play house out in the yard. Usually Emily is the Mom, Kaydance is the dad and Irelynn is the "Little Kid". I always hear either Emily or Kaydance saying somehting like "Hey little kid, I'm the mom and I said go clean your room or I'm gonna throw away all your toys" ...don't know where they would have picked up something like that! They make me laugh a lot! They also love their little baby sister. A few weeks ago Kaydance was holding Libby and singing to her, "Hush little baby don't stay alive..." I havent bothered correcting her yet, its too funny.

Emily

Emily Is having a fun summer, so far we're off to a good start. She likes playing T-ball, unfortunately she got her mothers athletic genes (she runs like a girl) . We love to go and watch her games. The last game Emily was the last batter so she was supposed to run around all the bases without stopping. Well she didn't quite understand what was going on so she'd stop at each base and take off her batting helmet so she could hear what the coaches were shouting at her, which was "Run Emily!" iIt was very cute. it took her about 5 minutes to get around the entire field. But she can hit the ball very hard!

Here is John! He is the best husband and dad ever! He works a lot! Right now he is building a house in Linden as well as working at his regular job. We are grateful he is such a hard worker and still comes home and plays with us until he inevitably falls asleep somewhere......and we have to go wake him up and put him in his bed. Little Libby has him wrapped around her little finger, and so do the other girls....come sixteen, those boys better watch out for John...he'll just be sitting at home, cleanin his gun...
