First words
Yup, it's been 9 months in the making. Beanie has learned a word and loves to babble about it. DADADADADADADADADADADa over and over again. She can be in the middle of drinking, stop and say dadadadada, then go right back to drinking or eating. It's the funniest thing I have ever seen. Though she has no idea what it means or who dada actually is, it's still amazing to hear.
I am hoping to find a way to get a clip up on the blog, but that may take some time, so bear with me.
Tonight we are going to a Halloween party at a friends house. Then downtown for moon fest. They close off some of the major streets downtown for the event. It's a great place to people watch and see all the costumes. There are even a few haunted houses to go through. I can't wait to see beanie all dressed up in her onsie, hat, socks and bib that we received from our family. I have a dorothy costume for her, but I'm not sure if i'm gonna put her in it. I have some shopping to do today, so if I find something cuter for Haloween, i may buy it. Besides, she can never have too many costmes!

Those Pearly Whites
Yup, Beanie no longer has that cute toothless grin anymore. She now has 4 teeth, 2 on the bottom and 2 on the top. It funny to watch her smile, they look so out of place. Though she has gotten into the bad habit of grinding her teeth together, whenever the mood strikes her. If you tell her no, she laughs and does it anyway....she's more like me than i thought!
She has learned a new trick in her crib, she likes to either sleep on her side or sleep on her tummy. The first time it happend, Michael and i flipped out, now, it's not such a big deal. Someday i'll go in there and she'll be standing up looking at me with her arms up waiting for me to get her out of her crib!

homeward bound
This is a quick post to welcome David to the United states and to Welcome his new bride, Michelle Bolden home from Australia. By now, Michelle and David are tucked warmly at home in Rochester, NY.
I hope they had a wonderful journey and enjoyed thier surprise in Seattle where Michelle was reunited with some long, but not lost friends and David heard wonderful stories of our years in highschool. I am sure that there will be many more to come, especially once the yearbooks come out of hidding!
Welcome home David and Michelle. We are glad to have you back, we missed you!

Up, up and.....down again
Yup, beanie has figured out how to pull herself onto things. Upside, she hasn't figured out how to get her feet under her to stand up yet. I know that won't be too far behind. She has also figured out that if she rolls around she can get anywhere she wants to. Now this is pretty amazing to watch.
Beanie has also figured out to scoot backwards. She is starting to put her knees under her, but then she goes backwards. Yeah, I know, before I know it she'll be moving forward and I'll be chasing after her...or she'll be chasing after me or the cat or the dog, whichever is the closest to her. I can't wait!
Her laughter is infectious. Her smile is mesmerizing. Our daughter rocks and we are very proud of her!

Full speed ahead
Beanie and I are feeling much better and finally back up to full speed. She did great...me, not so well. I hate being sick, it sucks.
Anyway, we bought beanie this really neat ball that rolls around (all on its own) and plays songs and asks you where things are on it. It's made by vtech and we bought it at Target. She got made when we had to take it away so that it could be paid for. We get it home...she loves it. She likes to try to reach for it when it rolls away, no, she's not crawling yet, someday maybe.
She can push herself up and lean forward over her one foot to reach things that are a bit far, but it stops there. We go to see Dr. Bell on Monday for her 9 month check-up. I can't believe that it's been 9 months already. By the time we head home for the hollidays, she'll be 2 months away from 1 year. Wow has this ine year gone by fast.
People getting Married (Gina and Travis Horton and Bill Mack), people moving (Scott and Jenna and Michelle and David who are moving back to the states...finally). Jeffrey, EJ, and Morgan celebrating their first birthdays, Shauna and Grant, Rene and Aaron celebrating their one year wedding anniversaries. It's been a big year for firsts.
Anyway, nothing much goin gon other than waiting for beanie to take her first crawl across our floor. Oh wait, yeah, she rolled over. She did the hard roll over too!!!!. She rolled over from her tummy to her back. I couldn't believe it. She just layed there watching me and wondering what happend. I just sat there in amazement and cheered her on....then she decided it was nap time and that was the end of that!
She can also wiggle around in a 360 degree pattern. Now that's funny to watch. One minute she's looking at you, the next you're looking at her tush. Even she thinks it's funny. Someday soon she'll be chasing us around the house. Can't wait!
