HAPPY 2nd BIRTHDAY WILL
Will had a wonderful birthday party with all that love him around him. We had fun at the Wonder Place playing, painting pictures and eating cake and ice cream. Here were a few pics that I thought were cute!

























Sydney was such a good help with Megan and ran around playing with the birthday boy!!

Well I guess Carson and Megan had a moment!

Megan looking through the window....

Is this not picture perfect!!! I loved this picture and had to share it with everyone! I think I am going to try to get it in a HUGE size!!! TOO CUTE!!!

HALLOWEEN 2007
Megan started her Halloween off by only having a 30 min nap at daycare. She still did well. She is my little Pumpkin and loved seeing all the people. We walked around the neighborhood passing out "pumpkin poop" from the Pumpkin. We decided to show Megan off to the grandmothers, therefore missing all the trick or treaters. Can't wait until next year!!!

MEGAN AT 9 MONTHS

I KEPT SAYING TO MY SELF THAT AI WAS GOING TO "SPELL OUT" EVERYTHING FROM THE CHECK UPS..SO HERE WE GO:

WEIGHT: 21 lbs and 8 ozs (90%) (even though we just went a few days ago b/c you were sick and your weight was 22 lbs 5 ozs) I love my chunky monkey!

LENGTH: 28 inches (75%)

CLOTHES/DIAPERS: She is wearing 12 month clothes (very few 18 months) but mainly 18 month sleepwear. She is wearing size 3 diapers (from Sams which go to 28 pounds-I don't think they will :)) I figure they are the equivalent to size 4.

EATING:We are eating stage 2 foods and solids. You don't like stage 3. You like toast, cheese, cottage cheese, carrots, spiral mac and cheese, mashed potatoes, cheerios, goldfish, and fruits.

SLEEPING:You are in the process of moving your two naps into one. you are now taking a nap in the middle of the day for about 2 hours. Most of the time you crash for about 30 mins-1 hour before or after dinner. Other than that you go down for the night about 8 pm and I have to wake you at around 6:15am. On weekends, you let me sleep as long as I like...you like to play in your crib! Thank You!

DEVELOPMENT: You are on the move crawling everywhere and pulling up on everything. You don't care if it moves or not!!! You are also beginning to stand on your own without holding on to anything. So, I see walking in your very near future! You already have 6 teeth but your seventh has just poked through and the eighth is about to pop through. You have your two top molars that have buds but no sign of them yet! You had your first hair cut over a month ago and need another one. You are always laughing, smiling and interacting with everyone around you!

WHOOOO PIG SOOOIE
Megan was dressed out to cheer on the HOGS. This was a gift from her Granny Mam. Daddy loved it even though he loves to watch the other teams beat the HOGS. We might be looking at a future Razorback Cheerleader!!!

WELCOME DAVIS RYAN ATKINS
My close friend Ashley and Ryan (husband) had their bouncing baby boy, Davis. He was 7 pounds 1 ounce and 20 1/2 inches in length. I heard that Ashley was a trooper through a few kinks in her birthing plan. When I say her today she looked wonderful and had that "mom thing" down pat. Congratulations to mommy and daddy! May your road ahead be the most joy est moments of your life!
Now, Davis....I hope you realize how special your mother is...she is an angel in disguise. Love her with all your heart even though she will love you a little more. Love your father too...he is a neat man (and I mean that in more than one sense!) You are his pride and joy...there is nothing you could do wrong. You have many who love you...God Bless.....

THE MULLET IS GONE!!!

the official first hair cut certificate!
Megan did a wonderful job! No screaming or squirming!
Goodness gracious..now I can see!
See...no mullet anymore!!!

ASHLEY'S SCHOOL BABY SHOWER
On Wednesday, September 5th we had a baby shower for Ashley at school. There was wonderful turn out and A LOT of Diapers. There was sizes from newborn to pull-ups! I hope you had fun, Ashley! We can't wait until Davis is here to use all those diapers!

Here is a picture of a picture that I took from my grandmothers. I have not gotten a baby picture of Donnie yet but hope to soon. Below is my baby picture about the same age as Megan.

FUN AT MEGAN'S GREAT GRANDMOTHER'S
Here is Megan's great grandmother who turns 90 in October. She absolutely loves Megan. I can believe that she got on the floor to play with her as well as trying to play horsey on her leg! We love you MamaB!

Ok....I hope everyone is happy that I have finally updated my blog! I think it is updated for the past two months! If I missed anything, I'll let you know. If things are not in order-sue me! I hope you all enjoy!

FINALLY SOME PICS WITH GRANNY MAM

I have to sneak the camera out because my mother-in-law hates to have her picture taken! I love watching her with her only granddaughter! She is so wonderful with Megan and Megan loves her SOOOO MUCH!

"Don't take my picture...PLEASE!" (Megan is saying: I'm always up for a pic!)
True understanding of each other...or is it just a stare down?

MORE FUN WITH DADDY!

I NEED A HAIRCUT!

MEGAN'S FIRST BIG GIRL PARTY

My niece Clara had her High Musical 2 Birthday party with about 25 girls. This was fun to watch. Mom took over Megan duties (holding Megan's ears when the girls were screaming).

All the girls intently watching the movie (or cute guys)!
Us laughing the girls screaming over the movie (or cute guys)! Oh...see mom holding her hands over Megan's ears?
Mom and Megan...too cute!

A NEW MEANING TO BABY JAIL

Cool! I like this!
Mommy please give a get out jail card!

COOL PIC...don't ask me how I did it..could do it again...

MEGAN'S FIRST BITE...

Talk about a pissed off momma! I ended up going back to the daycare because they didn't know it had happened. Needless to say I told them that they need to pay attention more and get rid of the bitter!

I LOVE MY DADDY! HE MAKES ME LAUGH

MOMMY WOKE ME UP TOO EARLY!!!

Mommy has begun work again and that means I have to get up early with her! Regardless, I think I am still cute just woken with a side of bedhead!

HAIRSPRAY AUDITIONS NEEDED

I was able to get her hair in pigtails! This was the first time and I didn't have the appropriate "tools" for the job...but it works until I could get bows and smaller bands.

I'm so pretty, Oh so pretty!
I know I look cute and having fun!

The aftermath....do I need to say more?

CAN WE SAY "POOR THING"

Apparently Megan was so tired that she fell asleep jumping. She was asleep by the time the bouncer stopped moving.
