my baby kangaroo …
ak was so excited to go to her first little concert… she danced her little heart out.
afterwards we made a fun day out of it and headed out to enjoy a little hill country afternoon, ice cream and all.

feeling so blessed…

{ten months}
anna kate frances, sweet thing this month is the month you have become just a little big girl!
you are starting to stand for a few seconds at a time all by yourself. you are eating big people food happily! we have learned you cannot have anything dairy related. anything. you love music and dancing. you love being upstairs with all the toys. you love falling asleep next to daddy. you have eight teeth visible! you are a happy traveler as long as mama is near by. you light up every room. we cant believe how fast you are growing! we love you sweet ak!

first of many…
what a great get away we had! southern california was so good to us. we visited with family, had a night out and just enjoyed the sites and our time together so much! anna kate you were a trooper on the flight and learned a few new tricks this week. clapping your hands and waving hi to everyone, you had people just squealing over you and no it wasn’t just me and daddy. jack you loved the beach so much! the first visit was a lot to take in but then you fell in love. samuel, you and sand were love at first site. you even poured a handful on your head. just for fun. crazy kids… you were excellent travelers which excites mama and daddy for many more future adventures ahead!
