EE's Birthday

Today is EE's birthday! To celebrate we went to McDonald's for a delicious happy meal lunch.
We made cupcakes
Delivered cupcakes to our neighbors.
And had a party!
Lane and EE were most excited about the cupcakes.
Lane loves to sing happy birthday. He usually wants to sing it three or four times a day.
Finally, time to eat our treats. Look at how happy EE is.
Delicious!
Marlee was happy just to be invited.
Lane got to help EE open his present.
What a fun day!
Two happy dudes!

Lane's Raker

Lane had to get his "raker" out to help Daddy rake leaves. They had a huge pile! Lane and Clint had so much fun playing together.

Daddy Duty

Clint took Lane and Marlee to the park so I could get some work done. I sent him with the camera and he did a great job capturing the fun they had.

Lane is starting to run like a big boy. We love watching him go.

Marlee is happy if she is around Lane. I think Clint parked her infront of the swing so she could watch big brother. Happy Girl! The proud owner of two new top teeth! I love this picture. Lane and Murph checking out the dog.

Working

I've picked up a little part time "job" sewing for a children's store. It's been a lot of fun. Clint has really been helping me with the kiddos so I can get work done. Last night I looked up to see Marlee up on Clint's shoulders while Clint was on his computer. She was as happy as she could be with an eagle eye view.
This is just part of the latest batch of sewing I've done.

7 Months

I finally got around to taking Marlee's 7 month pictures with her dolly. Samantha seems to get a little bit smaller every month, or Maybe it's Marlee that's getting bigger. Marlee has gotten really good at sitting up all by herself. Still just has two teeth. Loves her baby food - especially sweeter veggies like squash and sweet potatoes. She has to be reminded she likes green veggies - like avacado, green beans, and zuchinni. She loves eating puffs and Mum-Mum crackers. Marlee just started drinking with a sippy cup, she likes holding it but needs a little help holding it up to drink. Marlee loves to be held and cuddle. She hates tummy time. She was caught scooting in the church nursery today. I tried it out and home and sure enough she scooted about two feet on her bottom. Marlee is such a happy girl and if she's not she lets you know about it. We love to hear Marlee laugh, especially at her brother. And speaking of Lane she is crazy about him, he can do no wrong.




We love you sweet girl! The past seven months have been a JOY!

Reading

For Christmas Auntie Sarah & Uncle T got Marlee an Olivia book and doll. Lane loves to read Olivia with Marlee. We read it every couple days. The other night I heard Clint up reading to Olivia with Lane. Clint would read part of a sentence and Lane would finish it! I couldn't believe that Lane could do that after having the book such a short time. I tried it with him and sure enough he can finish the lines. Tonight I snuck upstairs and filmed Clint and Lane reading.
