10 Months!

      This sweet girl turned 10 months on Sunday! She finally got that 4th tooth this week. She has started walking with her push toy and clapping. She is babbling a bit more, saying dada, mama, baba, etc.

A Two-fer

     Alex had the pleasure of having his birthday on the day many celebrated Veteran's Day, so we got to go to the Yorktown for free.

        Emory clearly enjoying herself.
        Grady really loved exploring the ship, climbing in the plane, on the "shooting thing" and being a patient in the dentist's chair.

The Fair

       Before we get to the fair photos, I wanted to get the boys together in their Pooh and Tigger costumes! 
      We met the cousins at the fair, and the first thing they wanted to do was to ride a few rides.

           Too loud!                                       
      Emory enjoyed watching the boys. By the way, I have had a real problem with people telling me how cute HE is. I realize she is wearing bold stripes (and orange cords), but if a baby is wearing anything pink, err on the side of GIRL! She was wearing purple butterflies the other day and was called a "he" by 2 people. Is she just really masculine-looking? This is why I am stocking up on bows.  After the rides we went to find Abby's First Place artwork entitled, Baby Sea Turtle in Tide. (Well, she THINKS that was her drawing.)


     We then proceeded to the agriculture exhibition,where Grady was able to get on one of these...

      And look at some of these...

      When I was telling Grady we were going to go to the fair, he said, "I want to see some talking animals like the ones in Madagascar 3."  I told him that there would not be any talking animals like the one from Madagascar 3. He said, "Then I want to see some goats."  Glad he is easy to please!
The kids loved petting and feeding this donkey!
