Baby Dedication

We were so excited to dedicate Tia and Lexi at church a couple weeks ago. We want them to grow up knowing God and hoping they except him as their Lord and Savior when they are old enough to make that decision on their own. God is good!

Tia's First Day of Soccer

Finally! The day has come when Tia got to learn some soccer skills from a professional organization. We signed her up this summer, but not enough kids signed up. There was plenty of interest this fall and I'm so excited for Tia.

Chris went up to see how her first soccer lesson at daycare. SoccerShots is the organization giving the lessons for the next 8 weeks.

She did great. She proved to be super fast and able to follow the commands. They did drills that had them listening like "dribble, then put your elbow on the ball" "put your head on the ball" "put your belly on the ball".

They said she even scored a goal. I'm excited for Tia and later Lexi to be involved in soccer! Tia came home talking all night about soccer.

Lexi is Moving Up

Lexi is getting so big. She is moving up today at school. She is going from the infant 1 room to the infant 2 room. Wow, I can't believe it. She is such a happy baby. Of course she has her moments but overall, I've never seen a baby smile more than she does. She is totally a morning person too. She smiles for everyone and it is infectious. I just am so happy for my cutie pie!

Tia at the Zoo

Tia went to the Zoo today with her 'Aunt' Leslie. She loves animals and I am sure she had a blast!!! I am sure she named them all and made all the animal imitations too. This was her first time ever going to the Zoo, so I'm happy she was able to do this on Labor Day weekend.

Lexi Sleeping in Her Crib

It has been a long time in the running waiting for Lexi to sleep in her crib. For months, she sleeps in her carseat. The reason being that the girl can't roll from her belly to her back. She'd stick her face into the mattress and try to sleep. We tried turning her head, seeing if she'd eventually turn it, or roll over...but nothing. So we could sleep in peace, we just strapped her into the carseat. I know that ever since her 6 month appt and the doc saying she'd be fine with her head down, now that she is 6 mos plus, we've been trying. I know daycare has been trying too. She would do good at nap time but sleeping in her crib at night just wasn't happening. She would always roll over and get mad because she was stuck. Last night she slept in her own crib all night. She still woke up for night feedings but she was still doing fine without her carseat at 5:30am! So I'm hoping she's going to continue this trend!!!!
