Landry's 9 Month Photos

Instead of having Landry's pictures made at the studio for her 9 month pics, we decided to head to the Dallas Arboretum by White Rock Lake so Brian could try out his new fancy camera lens. They were having the annual Pumpkin Patch! Enjoy!! She goes to the doctor on Monday for her 9 month well-baby exam so I'll post her stats then.

Happy Birthday Dad!

Dad is the big 60 today!!

Happy Birthday, we love you!

Scout's Game at Texas Stadium

So Scout had his first football game of the season yesterday at Texas Stadium, home to those famous Dallas Cowboys. His team didn't win, but they had a lot of fun. How many kids get the chance to say they played at Texas Stadium and have sat on the same benches as Terrell Owens and Tony Romo! It was definitely a once in a lifetime game! Scout is #91 and plays left tackle. Landry did real well, she was watching everything going on intently.

When we got home, Brian went to get gas, but never made it there. He turned the corner and this kid, maybe 13 years old, darted across the street on his skateboard. Only he never made it. He slammed right into the side of the Suburban and knocked the side mirror clear off with his head. Brian slammed on the brakes and thought the kid had fallen under the car and that he ran over him. Praise God, it knocked him backwards. He chipped his tooth, but said he was OK. By the time the police got here, the kid and his grandpa had left to go pick up tacos. The police advised we needed a report detailing what happened because the dad advised them he would not speak to them, that he's hired an attorney because Brian ran over his son. Thankfully, the police report totally contradicts this and the police advised the grandparents and dad that the boy didn't have the right away and it's clear that Brian didn't hit him.....so stay tuned.

Just a Reminder!!!!!!!!!!!

8 Months Old Today - August 31, 2008

Time is really flying. Landry is 8 months old today and still has NO teeth! Her bottom 2 are trying real hard to pop through but no luck yet. No teeth aren't stopping her from eating, though. Her favorite is Club crackers, but she likes Cheerio's, Nilla Wafer Mini's, and Mini Ritz with Cheese, too. And Raspberries, can't forget those! She tried a pickle at dinner, but wasn't sure what to make of it.

We got her a little car at the Goodwill that she can ride on or push. She likes it. Although, we about fell over today when we were at Ashley furniture. They had those little cart things that look like cars with the steering wheels. We put her in it and she started turning the wheel like she was driving it.

Her new favorite game is kicking her brothers in the head while her daddy holds her. You should hear her giggles!

The boys started school on Monday. Toby started Middle school, yes, I said Middle school. He's in the band playing percussion. Scout is playing football again this fall, and oh..Brian got fired for being too experienced of a boat sale rep, oops! Happy Labor Day Everyone!

P.S. - Don't miss the pics of Landry in her Aggie Cheerleading outfit!!

5 Year Anniversary

So Brian and I celebrated our 5 year anniversary this past Sunday. He was actually able to pull one past me and order me flowers with out me finding out on one of my daily credit card charges search!! They were really pretty and I was shocked. I gave him gift #1 on Friday night which was a new camera lense for his camera. He loved it. All the pictures you'll see were taken with it. You won't be able to tell online, but it makes a HUGE difference.

Sunday night, our actuall anniversary, dad came over and watched Landry so we could go out to dinner. We went to Nick & Sam's in Dallas. It was really nice. I was also able to give Brian his favorite rum that can only be bought in Grand Cayman thanks to my good friend Kelly who went there on vacation and I begged her and her hubby to bring it back.

I can't believe it's been 5 years already. Time really does fly! Enjoy the pics and check out the close up's on Landry and see how BLUE her eyes are! There are some pics of Scout's football practice, too!
