One for the "Houpps"

Saturday means college sports which means I gotta sometimes route for the "other" hometown team. Go Orange!!!!

The "Cheerleader" Pose

Come on Boys...A touchdown!

This cheerleading stuff is great fun!!!! PS - I have to apologize to my mommy for enjoying the whole cheerleader thing. She was watching in horror the entire morning.

Too Dang Cute...Enough Said

So aside from being adorable, she was eating a snack (hence the mouth in the first 2 pics) and she was asking for more food in the last pic (sign for eat). For some reason I just find these pics too darn stinkin' cute!

Lots of New Things

In the past few weeks we have been enjoying yet more firsts...

1) Giving up the bottle. Friday, August 30 at 7:45pm (ish) we had our last bottle. We made a little production, having Little Bit throw the bottle away, clap, what a big girl. She was so proud. Unfortunately, we woke up with something else in mind. I wish we would have gotten video of that. She threw the sippy at us, threw herself backwards and had a class three temper tantrum. It was pretty funny. Thankfully, it didn't last long. Here is her tossing her bottle in the trash.



2) We learned to jump...as long as we are holding onto something. (No video.) Her feet leave the ground and her hair bounces and bounces with each jump!


3) Reading. We've always liked a good book now she likes to read to us. Her favorites are "The Monster at the End of this Book - featuring Grover" and "Go Away Big Green Monster." It cracks me up and absolutely amazes me that she can mimic my telling of the stories.

She is growing so fast...it continues to amaze me everyday.
