dancing

Molly breaks out into spontaneous dancing all the time. It always puts a smile on my face!
This is on a walk overlooking the beach in Hawaii.

Aloha!

We took a wonderful weeklong trip to Hawaii over the week of Christmas with the Crawford side of the family. It was so nice to have a week of perfect, warm weather with lots of sun to get us through the rest of the winter!
Molly had a great time hanging out with Cookie, Crawdaddy, Grandmother, Granddad, Uncle Drew (Un-doo!) and Uncle Alan (Ayan!).
Here's a video on the beach. I'll get some pictures up soon!

Merry Christmas!

Grocery shopping

We (both) now LOVE the cars attached to the front of the grocery carts at kroger. She loves to steer the wheel and beep the horn, and say "HI!!" to other people (as long as they look friendly enough:)) Vroom vroom!


Our trick to get her to smile for the camera is to ask her to play peekaboo. That's why her arms are out - "peekaboo!!"

Hello!

We had a great time in Atlanta for thanksgiving! Here we found molly chilling in paw-paw's dinner chair:


And my mom cleaned off our old play kitchen and Molly went wild for it!


This is when paw paw dropped us off at the airport.


Random bundled in the car...


Hanging with Dad in our hats on Saturday.

Dinner fun

What you can't see is the chili all over her lap:)


Uh oh, forgot to use my spoon... I'm in trouble now!





I had the good sense to take off her (outer) shirt before dinner both of these times. Yay mom!

Also, molly's really improving at her puzzles...


Hi mom!


I got all super-nesting-instinct one afternoon nap and made her seven new bows (this is one). I also had a random burst of excitement this past week at the thought of future chore charts. And I made a shower curtain. Pregnancy hormones at work!!

Random pictures

Hello! We've been doing well here in our new house. We closed on our old house last week, praise the Lord, and are really getting settled here.

Molly is doing great - we are amazed at how much she's growing and love her sweet and funny personality. Nothing compares to being parents!


She's a great eater - she likes most of what we eat and lets me add chopped spinach or other veggies to her favorite foods. She also just started sleeping 12 hours at night - her absolute max used to be 11ish. Yes, we have arrived. :)

She's been playing a lot with her buddy Jaxon, who was born on the same day as she was! Here they are a couple times. Cute!



And notice molly's look in the next pic... Hmm, she may be a bossy big sis?


Here Jaxon is letting Molly drive his car. What a gentleman!


We've also gotten to spend some time with molly's new (5th!) cousin Preston and mom Kara. He is a precious boy and Kara is doing such a great job with him despite the craziness that is life with a newborn!


We appreciate the practice being around such a tiny baby:)

Okay, one more... JC and I took Molly to a very cool park near our house this weekend and here she is swinging... I just think her skinny little legs are hilarious in this picture!


Hope everyone is enjoying the fall! Thanks for keeping up with us. :)

Quack quack!
