It's incredible how much changes in a month....



When you have a baby at home!!

I cannot believe some how I have not posted an update in almost a month. Deven is getting so stinkin big. She weighs in at 18lbs and is 281/2 inches long. She has really gotten taller, I guess you would say, in the last few weeks. She is crawling all over the place and is getting really fast. It is so funny to watch her. Tyler and I tease and say we are going to make her sponges with rubber bands on them and put them on her hands and knees because even though the floors look clean, her little knees get dirty when she crawls around. I guess that's part of the problem of having an apartment with almost zero carpet! Oh well, not much we can do about that I suppose.

She is clapping, laughing out loud and her two top teeth are almost in... that would bring the count to four! She is eating all kinds of things including Cheerios, fruit loops... when her daddy sneaks them to her, crackers and lots of yummy baby food, of course. She also loves to feed herself and is getting really good with that too. We are also working on the sippy cup. Some days she will do fine with it and other days she will act like she doesn't know what to do with it. Weird.

She was a flower for Halloween and it was so cute. Tyler and I were a doctor and a nurse. Here are some pictures from our church Fall Festival.





Tyler and I are staying busy with school and so glad to see the finish line in sight. I have two more weeks with my internship in West Memphis and then I am done until January. Then, I will be interning in Jonesboro next semester, so I am excited about that. But all in all we are counting down the days til May 9th.

I love the family picture of you guys. When I got on your blog my grandma was sitting here and she thinks Deven is just the cutest thing! I agree:) Oh, yeah--Carlie isn't spoiled, just LOVED(that's what my Mom always says)!
