11 Months Old

Yes, I know....she's adorable!  What more is there to say! :)

A Little Behind

Our lives have been a little crazy so I am catching up on Deli Beans monthly photo. As you can see she is as happy as ever. She brings so much joy to our family. This month while she was in the hospital (Post to come) she learned to say "bye bye." She likes to wave to her self as she does it. She'll be going in tomorrow for her well check where I'll post her 10 month stats.

How Sweet It Is......

This is my beautiful step daughter Zoe. I love this girl more than she will ever know! She has been a part of my life since she was 6 years old. Having her as the oldest is such a blessing. She isn't fond of having FIVE brothers, but she takes it in stride. Well....most of the time. I love to spoil her rotten and do all the girly things with her that moms and daughters do. We just found out that she made JUNIOR VARSITY cheer-leading! Say what???? She's in High School? When did this happen???? We are so excited and proud of her!!!!

I am so proud of Zoe and the young woman she is. She is an amazing sister. She knows how to make anyone in the room feel special and not afraid to reach out to others. She is super creative and so very talented.

Zoe, I love you so very much! There is nothing I love more than to have you as not only my daughter but also my friend! We are so proud of you Zoe Zo Zo!

7 months old

My baby girl is getting bigger every day. This month has been a TON of firsts. She has learned to sit up, army crawl, clap and shake her head no. It was fun having Gavin's kids here to see some of those firsts. I believe it helps the bonding between them since they only get to their siblings in person once every 3-4 months. All of the kids are super protective of her. She is going to have a hard time trying to date when she's older! She is eating like a champ and starting the hang of cheerios and other small foods she can grasp and eat herself. She only fusses when she's hungry and tired. She truly is our easiest baby. Although there seems to be more drama when she is teething than when the boys were teething. She got her first tooth on the 23rd of November and her second on the 14th of December. So far two bottom teeth. She is our earliest in getting teeth. We love her so much!

Adele got her first tooth on Thanksgiving and her second just yesterday. She is a grumpy guss while they are breaking through. Something I am not used to with my boys. She gets so emotional and I LOVE it. It cracks me up. I guess this is what's to be expected with a girl.

Austin and Adele

I LOVE how much Austin loves his baby sister. He is so sweet with her. The other night I was busy running around the house and this is what I found when I got done. Last night as I was getting every one's jammies together for bed I went to put Adele's jammies on and change her diaper. Austin said, "Mom, I did it for you!" and it was a POOPY diaper! I told him he didn't have to do that. He said he wanted to do it. You can tell that these two were very close spirits before this life.

I can't even begin to say how grateful I am that my children all have a very close relationship. It just shows how aware the Lord is aware of our sweet family.
