Yesterdays' football scores didn't turn out how we would have liked, but it
wasn't for a lack of cheerleading! I like this last shot...it looks like Mike is
balancing Amy by her foot with one finger. (Don't worry, thats not the case:).

Life has just changed!!!

We went hiking at Kennesaw Mountain on Saturday. Amy road on Mike's back the whole time, which made it easy for me to keep up with Mike for once. Amy blew raspberries for the first 45 minutes without stopping. Mike said she was his motor. Once she finished with the raspberries, she sang for the rest of the trip. We are pretty sure she likes the Great Outdoors!

Here is a picture taken a couple of weeks ago of Amy in the backpack:

Amy is pulling herself up on her crib....time to lower the mattress!!!

Amy and cousins Madyson, Jael & Landon.

Amy and cousin Landon.

trying to crawl...but not getting very far yet.

Amy finally shows her tooth.
There are actually 2 now. and I think she is working on at least one or two more.

Amy with bedhead.

Silly Grandpa and sillier Amy.

Amy and Conway.

Amy gets some crawling practice in.

Willa sneaks a kiss from Amy, then wants her butt scratched.





Amy's new inflatable friend, Boobah. Someone told me that Boobah is the European version of the Teletubbies. I just like the way he dances.

Molly just turned 6, and she had a fantastic make-over birthday party to celebrate the occasion. She is single handedly bringing blue eye-shadow back in style!

Amy finally gets her own necklace to yank and tug on!
Why didn't I think of giving her one of these months ago???




Sydney gets pampered like the princess she is.

bathtime is so fun!!!!!

Here is a picture of me and Amy at the zoo a few weeks ago.

Amy liked watching the people more than the animals :).

We have been practicing crawling lately. She has started using her legs to
push forward a little bit. We are still at least a few weeks away, though...

...but not from a lack of effort!

Amy cut her 1st tooth on July 6th. We have been trying desperately to take a picture of it since we first saw the little white nub. However, Amy is modest about this lower left central incisor, and will not show it off for the camera. We have tried everything from making her smile by laughing, to holding her upside down, and even gently prying our fingers in her mouth to get a good shot. None of these methods have worked. So you'll just have to trust me...it's a cute little nub!

Thanks "Mom Mom Rice"!!!

Sweet little Amy with her hair bow.

Amy likes honking the horn.
