Take me out to the ball game!
This Fal, Travis and I played with a bunch of our friends on a co-ed softball team in Hillsboro's City League. Travis was the team coach/manager this year and did a great job. We won 2nd place in our division. Justin is proudly displaying our trophy in his bedroom. We're already looking forward to playing next season!

Allie is 13 Months Old Today!
Allie had her first haircut today. I trimmed her bangs because they were getting so long. Now she looks like a little toddler to me. She grew up in that 10 minutes it took me to cut her hair! Where is my baby?
Here are her latest favorite things:
+ Giggles when we give each other Eskimo kisses.
+ Loves to watch Baby Signing Time. She knows lots of signs now and it is SO NICE to know what she is thinking about and what she wants/needs when she doesn't say the actual words yet. Her favorites are "baby", "sun", "dog", "more", "all done", "sleep", "milk", "Dad", and "wet".
+ She is starting to try to repeat what I say when I prompt her...say "this".
+ Today (of all days) she started shaking her head "no". For now, it really is adorable!
+ Has taken a few steps by herself. She's a super-cruisin' babes.
+ Always stops climbing half-way up the stairs to wave at anyone in the kitchen and family room.
+ Calls "Go, go, go!" and does the sign...All.Day.Long.
+ Loves to go walk with me out to meet the school bus and "the boys". Justin, Tyler and the neighbor kids "ooh" and "ahh" at Allie and give her leaves to hold and wave around. She gets so much attention, no wonder she loves this school bus thing.
+ Took a bite out of the wall the other day. Bit right through the drywall and swallowed it. And this coming from a girl who refuses to eat bananas and pears.
+ She's got her own little groove. She dances to any music and instead of bouncing to it like her brothers did, she grooves side to side to the beat. She has better moves than I do! Ha ha! I wish you could see it!
Yes, you know its true, oooh, oooh, oooh-oooh, I love you!
