Busy Bee!

Mary Alice has been a busy bee this summer! Especially these past two weeks! Enjoy the pictures in her words!
I am really getting good at eating rice cereal! I start squash on Friday! I got to try out Nana and Granddad's chair! I really liked it!
I also love to stand up! If you are holding me you better stand me up!

I don't understand why Mommy made me wear this hat!
We celebrated Great Grandad's birthday! I got to see my Uncle Ben!

Here I am with Daddy, his cousin, and Uncle Ben! I like to hang out with the guys!

I also got to play with my cousin Anna Camille! She gave me my paci!
I love sitting with Ma Camille
Here I am doing what I do best: Making everyone smile!
I love my Gege

I love getting kisses from Great Grandad

Happy Birthday Great Grandad!

I also got ride Nana's horsey! I really really love this!


Here I am doing my ab workouts! I love to raise my feet and head! I do more ab crunches then anyone in my house!


I also got to hang out with my cousins, Caroline and Eli! They are my best friends!

I went with Gege and Aunt Sally to meet my new second cousin!


I loved it when Ashton held me!


Here is my new second cousin: Beautiful Kyelyn Graham! I can't wait to play with her!


Why are holding another baby Gege?

I love my new cousin!


I also went to Nana's work while Mommy helped her hook up her computers. All this visiting made me tired! I have to get all my rest because Mommy and I only have more week together so we are going to do so much playing!

A Week of Fun!

This past week Mary Alice and I have had fun!! Here are some pictures of our fun!
This is from a playdate we had.. She watched all the babies on her mat and eventually fell asleep! This was one night last week! She LOVES her daddy!

We bought her a new toy on Friday. The doctor suggested a jumper since her legs are so strong. She is still getting use to it but I think she will LOVE it!
This is what she does in it right now.. Watches TV!
We went to Nana and Granddad's for two days to help take care of Caroline and Eli. She rode around in the big girl stroller. Caroline and Eli enjoyed pushing her!



On Monday we all headed to the mountains. Mary Alice loved to watch everyone play in the water. She also enjoyed SLEEPING! She slept in my arms for a good hour!


Nana and Granddad with all the grandchildren

Her hat was too small. It wouldn't button


Don't you just love her shoes!?!?

This is where she sat while we had our picnic. It looks like she is telling everyone what to do!

Temptation

I am doing the Me, Myself, and Lies bible study with my sister and her friends and let me tell you it is hard! Today's lesson was really hard but really hit home. It was about pray and accountability. It asked what are your temptations for not praying and not being held accountable.

Lately Patrick and my family have told me that I spend too much time on the computer and the more I think about they are right. Since we got a laptop I am on the computer ALL the time because it is right at my fingertips. So this is my temptation for not praying like I should and not reading the Bible as much as should.

So I have decided to not use my computer unless I need to find a phone number or check our bank account starting tomorrow for a week. My plan is that every time I want to be on the computer I will pray or read some scripture!

Please pray for me next week.. I know this sounds silly but it is going to be really hard for me!
So if you need to get in touch with my between this Friday and next Friday you have to call me!

Getting introduce, they walked out to 2001. Patrick was in Heaven!


On Friday before the wedding we went to visit the Brockman's. I was their babysitter for a long time! I love these girls and cannot believe they are so grown up. It was so neat to have them hold and love my baby!

This is Sarah. I started keeping them when she was an infant! She has grown up so fast.
This is Becca holding Mary Alice. This is Anna holding Mary Alice!

On Saturday night my mom got her walker out for Mary Alice to try out! She loved it! She walked backwards all through the house! I guess this means she is growing up!
She made it all the way from one side of the room to other. Once she got to the door she just waiting for us to turn her around!


She even stopped to watch some tv! She needed a break.

This was the first time she sat in it! She wasn't too sure about it!



We had a really good weekend! Saturday night Nana and Granddad watched Mary Alice and we got to go to the movies! Thanks Mom and Dad!!
Also Mary Alice got her pictures made on Sat. I will post those pictures hopefully tomorrow!
