She Can Crawl!!

Felicity started to crawl a few days ago. She is now a pro. I can't leave the room for long and she is off in a corner somewhere. She just hasn't mastered the going back to sitting position. She gets kinda stuck on her hands and knees and gets pretty mad after a while. I don't think my kids crawled until 8 or 9 months. She amazes me, she is just really stubborn and determined when she wants to do something. She turned 6 months old on the 19th.

Cherish the Moment

A Tooth!

Tracy discovered Felicity's first tooth today. We are not sure how many days she has had it. Tracy insists it wasn't there yesterday, she would know. We wanted to take a picture of the tooth itself, but that is a little tough. She is already sick of everyone's fingers in her mouth trying to feel it. She wanted nothing to do with a camera in her mouth and us trying to hold her mouth open for a picture. This is the best I could do today.

Amazing!

Felicity has been growing up so fast. She will be 6 months in a week. She wants to crawl really bad. She gets up on all fours but can't go anywhere, then gets really mad cause she thinks she should be able to do it. She started to stand up by things already. I took some pictures during the process. It takes her a little while but she is very determined.

Here she is when she first starts to try.

Up on one foot, getting a little wobbly here.

Both feet, now just to stable herself.

Check this out. She is so excited when she gets up. She is pretty wobbly, she doesn't understand that she still has to hang on. She lets go so we have to stay right there to catch her. After this we went and lowered her crib mattress so she doesn't topple out the top. I also put the gate at the top of the stairs, she is starting to move in her walker. Hopefully she won't be quite as bad as her mom. I had to lock literally everything in the house. All the cabinets, doors, and even the toilet had a lock on it!

Felicity, Kylee and Scooby

Kylee has become a Scooby fanatic. She watches Scooby movies everyday. She even dreams about Scooby. I have seen it first hand. The other morning when she went back to bed, she was laying there singing the Scooby song.

Here's Felicity and Kylee sitting on my bed watching Scooby. Hopefully the Scooby obsession won't wear off onto Felicity.

The other day I went to the basement and dug out Andy's Scooby toys. He was also a Scooby fanatic. Here is his big Scooby pillow. Kylee loves it but I had to put Felicity on it for a picture.

Laurie is 40!

Wednesday was Laurie's 40th birthday. It was a surprise party at Florena's. We were told (by Jim) that they were bringing her at 7:00. We got there about 6:50 and....surprise! Laurie was there already. I didn't get to take too many pictures as my battery went dead in my camera. UGH! I know there were a lot of other cameras flashing. Maybe I can get some from someone out there.

Here's is me, Tammy, and Pam.

This is the only picture I got of Laurie. (sorry Laurie)

Posting Maniac

I decided to catch up on my blogging today. I did about 10 posts today. I put them in by date so some are before some of the ones that were on here previously. Sorry for the confusion. Happy reading, maybe I can keep you occupied for a few minutes. Happy New Year....
