End of August Update

My little doodlebug is 9 months now. We went for her check up and she weighed in at 20 lbs, 7ozs and is 28 1/2 inches tall. 80-85% for both so. So, still a happy and healthy baby. She is finally crawling forward this week. So, we will be putting up the gates on the stairs this week. I have nightmares about her falling down the stairs. I've decided having a 2-story house with babies isn't a good mix. If we do move at some point while she or any of our future kids are little, we will definitely go 1 story.

She loves to pull up on everything. I put her on the floor and she immediately turns around, crawls over, and wants to pull up to standing. Course, she can't stand by herself and it's really moving around while standing, so it's a constant up and down. It's fun to see her developing though.

We are getting her 9 month pics either tomorrow or Monday, so I'll post some once we get them.

Hope everyone has a happy labor day weekend. Mine will be good, except I'm the closing speaker at church this Sunday. Speaking on "May the soul delighteth in the things of the lord". It's such a hodge podge talk that I'm having trouble organizing myself. I do better with one specific topic like tithing, holy ghost, etc. I guess I'll need all the hodge podge since I'm the closer. So, my talk could be 10 or it could be 25 min. Let's hope for 10.

Danny is just working and happily getting geared up for his fantasy football leagues he is in. I think he is up to 3 now- 1 free, two betting ones. He even made his cell's ring tone the Monday night football intro.

that's it for now.
