Thankful

This year, I have so many things to be thankful for. I have been so blessed this year and I thank God for all the things he has done and given me.

My Husband. I am so thankful for Tim. He has been my rock throughout our relationship and there is no one I would rather travel through this life with than him. He is so good to Landry and when I look at him look at her it makes my heart melt.


My daughter. I am so thankful for Landry. I could not of asked for a better child than her. She fits right in to our little family so well, and makes us whole. She makes me laugh on a daily basis and just when I think she can't get any smarter she out smarts me!


My family. I am so thankful for my parents, Dani and Bobby. I look forward to seeing them and get sad when I know it will be a while before we will go over there. Just ask Tim! I am so lucky to of been blessed with the parents that I have. I am so thankful that Dani has found someone who completes her and completes our little family.


For Tim's Family. I am so thankful for Mike, Debbie and Stephanie. I could not have asked for a better set of in-laws. They treat me as if I was their own daughter. Thank you for raising Tim to be the man he is!



Our friends. We are so thankful for the Thomas', Boozer's and Shull's. Tim and I have been blessed with a great set of friends. I am so lucky to have been blessed with friends who have children as well and that I can go to for advice.




All these things would not be possible without my faith in the Lord. I love this time of year to reflect on all that I have been given and to be so thankful for what he has done for me.

Reality Weekend

This weekend was so fun, but I am exhausted! We had the youth group's Reality this weekend. Our church has been doing this for years. This year, we had all the high school girls at our house. I adore these girls, they are so much fun! Here are just a few of the things that we did.

Saturday morning, I brought Landry to the worship with us, and she loved it! She was a dancing fool. Her new thing is to dance whenever music comes on. I will try to get a video of her doing it to show. The lead singer of the band even pointed out her dancing, it was too cute!




Landry loves our church's gym. It is a wide open range for her to crawl and play.



Saturday afternoon we played flag football. I say "we", but I actually didn't play. Tim was a referee and Landry and I watched from the sidelines. She loved it. It got a little cold, but she didn't care.









Here are two of my favorite girls, Kyndall and Erin. I absolutely adore these girls and I will be sad when they leave next year to go off to college.




Our group that stayed at the house.


Here is Landry at dinner last night. She had mexican rice for the first time and loved it. I don't think we have fed this girl anything that she hasn't liked! A girl after my own heart!


My parents brought her back this teddy bear from there trip this weekend. She loved it. It sings "All I Want for Christmas is my Two Front Teeth".

A little of this and that

This week was a busy one! We have been gone every night! Here are some random pictures we took this week.

This was Monday night at prayer night. First I must tell you that Landry doesn't usually just go around naked. We were in the middle of putting her pajamas on her.


Tim and Robbie think it is hilarious to put things on Landry and Austin's heads and take pictures. These poor kids, they have no clue we just sit and laugh at them!


This is how she looked when I woke her up this morning. My little Houdini got out of her outfit sometime through the night. I think it's funny that she closes her eyes when she is laughing.





She loves to just sit by herself and play with her toys. Such a good little girl.



Her first time to eat cheese! She loved it! If you know our family, this is exciting. Tim does not eat a lot of cheese, so I'm hoping she will love it like I do.

Too Cute Tuesday

These legs were made for walking!

We took this video a few weeks ago and I totally forgot to put it up on here. Mike and Debbie have this toy and she loves it. She loves it so much, they let us borrow it to bring home so she can use it on a daily basis. The only one who is not so fond of the toy is Angel. She will bark and growl at it when Landry is coming her way.

I can't believe in just a short time she will be walking on her own. She is getting so close to standing on her own that I know it won't be long before that first step comes!

Cute Pictures

Here are just some random pictures from the last couple of days.

I absolutely adore this picture. I just thought she looked so cute with her big girl tennis shoes and her cute lil bow.


This is where you can usually find Angel when Landry is eating.


This is Landry after spaghetti! She had it in her hair, her eyebrows, even on top of her eyelids!



This is Landry after we had to take a bath to clean the above spaghetti off. She was fresh and clean again.

Too Cute Tuesday

Look who can finally wear a bow in her hair without a headband! I was so excited yesterday when I realized she finally had enough hair to put the bow into. Also, you will notice our first of many bug bites. We sat outside Sunday night for dinner for Shay's birthday and this is what happens when you get food on your face! Luckily, she is not acting like they bother her.

Weekend in Clyde

This weekend we decided to pack up the family and head to Clyde. We had such a good time! Saturday, we got to watch my cousin Brett play basketball. He is really good. Landry was so fascinated by the game. I'm thinking we might have a little cheerleader on our hands. Every time they made a basket and the crowd cheered, she would get so excited. Here are just some of the pictures I got. We were so busy, I hardly had time to take some pictures.

9 Months Old

Today marks a very special day. I have officially had Landry outside my belly for as long as I had her inside. I can't decide which one went by faster. I'm pretty sure it is her on the outside. My pregnancy seemed to last forever! I feel like mine and her lives are flashing right before our very eyes. She is getting so big and doing so many new things and it just makes me want to cry and burst at the seems all at the same time. Here are some new things we are doing at 9 months old.

1. She is cruising all the time. She of course crawls to get from A to B, but she loves to stand and cruise from the table to the ottoman to the couch to the chair. She just looks so grown up to me when she is standing.
2. She makes the funniest noises. If you have been around her for any length of time you know what I am talking about. She makes this noise that comes from her throat. It is so hard to explain. I need to put a video of it up. She only does it when she thinks something or someone looks funny or if she thinks she is getting away with something.
3. She is slowly learning how to share. I only try to point out the positive in these monthly timelines, but lately she just likes to take any toy you have in your hands away.
4. She loves Dada. The minute he walks in the door or comes into her room her face lights up. I know she loves me, but with him it is different, it's like she knows he is her daddy, her protector. I just love seeing the two of them interact. It melts my heart.
5. She is a people person. She has the best personality. She will talk or go to anyone and just look them up and down to see what they are wearing and then she will talk or play with them. I love her personality and that she is a people person. Hopefully she will always be this way.

Landry Kate, you are growing up so big right before your daddy's and my eyes. These last 9 months have been filled with laughter and fun. I cannot wait to see you develop more of your personality. Thank you for being mommy's best friend. We love you.


Also, I wanted to put her stats on here from her 9 month check up. Weight:24 lbs (100% percentile) Height: 30 inches (100% percentile) Head: 15.5 cm (75% percentile) As you can see, we have a big baby! Dr. Olivo said that was good and that she is very healthy! Here are some pictures I took while we were at the Dr's office waiting.

Too Cute Tuesday

This week's Too cute Tuesday is brought to you by our little flower! When I first put this costume on her last week, I cried because I was laughing so hard. I just thought that she made the cutest little flower.

It's the Great Pumpkin, Landry Kate

Happy Halloween! We had such a great week. Here are some of the things we did this week.

Friday, we went to my work for the annual Southwest Halloween event. Southwest goes all out for Halloween and I was so excited to be able to bring Landry with me this year. She had such a good time looking at all the costumes and meeting all my friends. This is my friend Lorie and her little girl Addison. She is just one month younger than Landry.


Friday night, we threw a suprise party for Robbie. He really was surprised! Happy Birthday, old man!


Saturday, we took Landry to the Flower Mound pumpkin patch. It was such a pretty day, and we had a great time.







Saturday night was our church's annual Trunk or Treat. Melissa and I decided to pass out candy this year and we did it from Tim's tailgate. We had planned on having tailgate bowling, but our plan didn't go so well, and it turned into "come look at the babies and get some candy"!







This is what Landry looked like by the end of the night!
