9 Months and Counting

Our little girl, who really isn't that little, celebrated her 9 month birthday not very long ago. It is so incredible how fast the time flies. I feel like each day she is learning something new. We had a doctor appointment this week, and our suspicions were confirmed. Josh and I have a very, very healthy daughter. At 9 months, Evie weighs 21 lbs. 10 oz. and is 29 3/4 in. long. She's a big girl, and we love her!

Fall Festivities

On Sunday, our family went to Chester's Pumpkin Patch for our community group. As you can see, everyone especially Evie had fun.

Evie was not only excited to get a pumpkin, but she also wanted to eat it.

She spent the day feeding the animals with her friend, Kaelyn,

Riding on a saddle,

walking through a mystery maze,

and sliding down a huge slide.

All in all, it was a great day.

Our Little Wiggle Wart

Today when I went to get Evie up from her second nap, this is how I found her.

I don't have any idea how she got to this spot, but it was too funny to pass up capturing. Oh, how we love our little wiggle wart!

Our Trip to Pennsylvania

Here are the pictures I promised. Isn't Pennsylvania beautiful this time of year?

This was Pepaw's first time to see Evie.

Pepaw and Evie both enjoyed a good nap together.

Evie found a new friend to play with at her Pepaw's house.

If you count me taking the above picture, there are four generations here.

Pepaw (Harmon), Evie, Aunt Joy, and my dad - Evie's Pawpaw

Evie received her first set of wings. She did so well on the flight there and back. Here she is just about to see her Daddy after 3 days in Pennsylvania.

Racing for Ruby

Today was the Race for the Cure. For the fifth year in a row, I have either ran or walked in the event. Today I walked the 5K with my mom. We had a great time, and the weather couldn't have been better. The crowd as always was huge. It's an awesome sight to stand at the top of a hill somewhere on the course and look in front and behind you. All you can see are thousands and thousands of people running or walking to fight breast cancer. No matter how hard you try there's no way to see the end or the beginning of the race. My mom and I saw some of the sweetest women walking the 5K. They were probably in their 60s (I'm terrible estimating age.) with curly gray-white hair, and they were survivors. They reminded us so much of Granny Ruby, my mom's mom. If she was alive today, she would have been out there with us walking the entire 5K. I like to imagine that she does walk with us just not physically. We love you, Granny.

Up, Up, and Away

A week ago Evie went for her very first plane ride with Mommy. She did so well even with her 4:00 AM wake-up call when we left. We traveled with my mom, dad, and sister to Pennsylvania to see my Pepaw, Evie's great Pepaw. Although the trip went by so fast, we all had a great time. Pennsylvania is beautiful this time of year. The leaves are all changing from deep greens to bright oranges, reds, and yellows. The weather was also great. We left mid 80s in Oklahoma and enjoyed upper 50s there. It really felt like fall. Hopefully, it will arrive soon in Oklahoma. I miss the cool weather. Everyone just loved on Evie the entire trip especially her Pepaw. While visiting with some family, Pepaw and Evie enjoyed a nap together. It was adoreable. I'll post some pictures as soon as I can.
