Alyssa Update:

Alyssa is now 9 months old. I just wanted to inform everyone of our new tricks. It is so exciting everytime she does something new and now she has just started to do all of these things at once:

GI Joe Crawl, Put herself into a sitting position, pull up to standing, and cruising. She is so much fun, and we are all having a great time watching her grow. Still no teeth.

Owen's Third Day

Owen and Braden's First Day

Winter Park

We just got back from Winter Park 2 days ago. It was soooooooo much fun. Owen took ski school for 2 1/2 days. By the end he was going down some pretty intense greens. It was awesome to see our little boy skiing. My mom went with us to watch Alyssa. They had a great time together. They took a snowcat tour up the mountain. We stayed at Crooked Creek Ranch which is a part of Young Life. It was a really neat place and we hope to go back next year. Thanks so much to Stephen for setting the trip up for us. Rick and Kelli: we had so much fun with you and your family. Thanks for hanging out with us. We had an awesome time.

Puerto Rico

Robby and I went to Puerto Rico March 7th thru the 11th. Mom, Dad, Sissy, and Uncle B took turns watching the kids at our house while we were gone. They had a great time. We also had a good time. The deep sea fishing was terrible but after that everything else was really fun.

Busy, Busy, Busy. . . . . .

I have been so behind but finally decided to update the blog. I started it with our trip to Vegas in January. I did not even want to begin trying to post our 300 pictures from Christmas.

Alyssa is doing great. She dropped her 10pm nighttime bottle right after Christmas. So we are sleeping all the way through the night now. She is the same wonderful happy baby. She has gotten an attitude though. She'll growl at daddy until he picks her up. She loves him so much.

Owen is the same. Always active and very funny. He loves telling us stories and says funny things all the time. I think he's starting to lie now though so we are going to have to start addressing that issue.

Thanks for looking at our blog and I will try to do a better job at keeping it up to date now that the holidays are over.

Snow Day 02/01/07

It finally snowed!!! Owen was so excited. Michael brought his doonbuggy out. Owen wanted to ride it nonstop the whole time. Alyssa on the other hand didn't think much of the snow and especially hated her snowsuit.

Robby's Eye Surgery

Robby had Epi-Lasek Eye Surgery on the 25th. He has about 20/30 vision right now and is due to be 20/20 soon. The doctor said he is recovering better than average. He is really excited about it. Anyways, enjoy the gross picture of his eye.

Alyssa's First Razorback Game

We took Owen and Alyssa to a game on the 20th. She loved it but got tired in the 2nd half so we had to leave. She looked extremely cute in her razorback hat and tshirt.

Vegas

A group of friends took a mini vacation in Las Vegas. It was super fun. We stayed at the MGM, went to see 'O', and much more.
