Daddy Calls us Little Terrorists...

...We can't imagine why! :o)

The Garden Update

In June my pumpkin seed grew into a plant and I was about to plant it in our garden.

Now look look at how big it has gotten! I even have my first pumpkin growing!

Here are some other garden pictures because Mommy is very proud of the garden.

I'm a Climber

Emma's bed looked so interesting I just had to climb up to be on it. Now it is the first thing I do when I am in her room. The problem is that I want to get down head first, but for some reason mommy is too freaked out to let me try it myself so I am banned from using the step stool for now.

Fun With The Stones

Summer time is great for picnics and playing in water!

This is my friend Cameryn. He is five weeks older than me so we are great playmates.

This is Rambo Stone. I was quite interested in him until he licked me.

A Moment with Emma

I got to go to my first Movie and I saw Winnie the Pooh. Mommy said I did a great job. Papa and Nolan had some male bonding time while we watched the movie.

Nolan at 9 Months.

I have amazed my family with all the growing and developing I have done this last month. I can use chairs and toys to walk around the house. I also walk all around the furniture as well. This last month I have had lots of bumps and bruises because I often fall and land on my forehead. I have been babbling like crazy saying, mamama, bababa, nanana, etc. I also have my first tooth! My favorite song right now is Patty Cake, Patty Cake. I like to clap my hands all through the song. Mommy also calls me a little piglet because I will eat anything and everything edible (and not so edible, paper and leaves being the major culprit).

Nana's Birthday Party

Nana had a surprise Birthday Party several days early. We couldn't let Nana on that she was going to be showered with love...and boy did she feel loved! The surprise worked, she was clueless.

Here I am trying on Nana's sash. I had to make sure that it would fit Nana just right.

Here are several of Nana's fans at the tea party.

4th of July Party

Our Bible Study group each year hangs out at the Stauffers' home to play in water, watch an outdoor movie, and see fireworks. This year a thunderstorm arrived just after dinner and dessert and rain poured down on us. Therefore, no movie and fireworks, but we had a blast all the same. We got to be with friends and we all decided God gave us his own fireworks with a beautiful display of a lightening show and a double rainbow. On the drive home we even got to see a nice sunset.



There are about 6 couples that come and these are the children. We were missing one couple and their 3 children so these 18 kids would have made 21 in all!

After a long fun day, Emma is relaxing in her carseat, but too pumped to sleep.

Daddy Time

Daddy has been really busy at work the last couple of months so when he gets home we like to climb all over him and wrestle with him.
