For some reason the pictures did not upload on the last post so here they are!!!

7 months old!!

Bella was 7 months old on 7-23-09 and I know I say this EVERY month, but I cannot believe it! She is growing so big she weighs 15 pounds and is very tall at 27 inches long! Long and skinny that girl is! She is eating carrots, sweet potatoes, cereal, and bananas. We tried peas but she thinks they are yucky!! She is the happiest baby and so easy going we are truly blessed to get to be her parents and are thankful for every moment we have! Enjoy the updated photos of the little princess and thanks for sharing her life with us!!

Vacation to Aunt Becca's and Uncle Mike's

We had a great visit to Mississippi/Memphis to visit my sister and her family! Monday the 6th was Becca's birthday so we spent the day shopping of course what else do sisters and nieces do plus Mimi sent Birthday money for Bec and we had to ensure she spent it on herself! Then we celebrated with dinner at Red Robin and cake and ice cream. Tuesday we swam and hung out/cooked out steaks and went to the park and to Baskins Robbins for ice cream. Wed. we spent the afternoon at incredible pizza and then had famous Memphis bar-b-q for dinner! We had a great visit and even got to bring Noah home with us for a visit! Bella loved seeing Aunt Becca and Uncle Mike, Ryan and Noah they had not seen her since she was in the hospital at Christmas so they were shocked at how much she has grown. Mattie was so fun and loved being with Bella even gave her a new nickname Junebug as well as dressed alike for our shopping outing! Such great memories thanks mom and dad for making it possible for us to go we cherish the memories and miss the Hayters already!

4th of July 2009!

I know this is a little late but we had a great 4th of July! Bella was so cute in her dress that matched Gracie ( gotta love Old Navy for the 4th outfits!). We started the day with the family tradition of going to the Edmond 4th of July parade. I have been going for as long as I can remember so I of course had to take Bella! After the parade we headed to MiMi and Papa's for lunch and then home to pack we left for vacation Sunday the 5th! WE skipped the fireworks since Junebug goes to bed by 9pm and we had a long drive the next day! Hope everyone had a great day and feels as blessed as we do to live in America!
