Colossians 3:12-15a

Therefore, as God's chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity. Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts.

9 Months Old!



It's hard to believe that our little Ally-girl is closer to 1 than being a newborn! Jeremy and I definitely don't see her that way...she'll always be our little baby! She's going to be our spoiled rotten baby!! Seriously. This girl is so stinkin' sweet and cute and happy! Those qualities combined with the fact that she's our last one = she's gonna be able to get away with anything (within reason)!

Here's how lil' miss is growing and of course I have to compare her with the older two:
Weight: 19lbs, 55% 
- M: 22lbs 7oz, 95% (aka baby Michelin Man!)
- C: 23lbs 1.5oz, 81%

Height: 26.5", 35%
- M: 27.75"
- C; 29.75", 87%

Ally is our little runt! Yes, God blesses us with babies with LOTS of rolls and Ally has no shortage of rolls and dimples, but as you can see, she's smaller than Mackenzie and Conner were. It's probably because the girl doesn't sit still!

Ally started crawling at 6 months and is now comfortably walking around while holding onto furniture or a toy with wheels. It won't be long and then she'll really be trying to catch up with brother and sister on foot!

(future baby CrossFitter)

Now on to her crazy teeth:) She has her 2 bottom ones...normal. And then she sprouted her top left fang. And now the right fang is attempting to make its appearance. Our little vampire baby!

 See the fang up on top. This picture was taken a week ago and that fang grows in more and more each day!

Other cuteness she's up to:
- she can say "dadada." And when asked "Where's dada?" she'll look for him
- can wave with her right hand and say "buh-buh" (that's baby talk for bye-bye)
- is starting to say "mamamamamama" and that's the most precious sound of all:)
- absolutely loves other kids!!! Babies, big kids, it doesn't matter. She's a little social butterfly! But she definitely loves Mackenzie and Conner the most. She lights up and giggles whenever they pay her attention...it's awesome!
- loves to swing
- loves to pull on Maggie's tail and sometimes tries to suck on it (hairball)
- everything goes into her mouth. it's disgusting. she hacked up a blade of grass through her nose that she had attempted to eat in her mouth. 
- daily melts hearts and brightens days:)

Baby girl LOVES, LOVES, LOVES food! Baby food is ok, but I'm talking real people food. Eggs, sausage, cheese, chicken nugs....whatever brother and sister are eating, give her a bite too! And she'll eat anything you put on her tray. (well for now anyway!)

I think she knows she has us wrapped around her little finger! And we are perfectly ok with that!

Los Ninos

I've done a pitiful job taking pictures of my family this year! Here's all that I have as of now...well, and once I figure out the problem with downloading images from my phone to the computer I'll have more pics in case you're interested.

Here are my 3 precious little ones from 2013 so far:
