Alex (22 mos):
We've had another fun month. I still love playing outside and I think my sister is quite neat sometimes. I like to hug her and play with her hair. I also like to bring her snacks - anything mommy will let me. I have started to try and talk a little bit. I say doggy and its hot. I can repeat the sounds mama, dada, and nana oh and the cow says 'mmmm.'

Amelia (9 mos):
Well, I am really getting around now. I am a pro-crawler and have really started to pull up on things. I like to pull up on mommy's calves while she is in the kitchen and try to bite them. I had my 9 mos checkup and I'm 28" and 17.5 lbs.

She's reaching for the Yuengling -good girl!

Atlanta Zoo

Well, Daddy has been bugging Mommy since we got here to take us all to the Atlanta Zoo. And last year she was too pregnant and it was too hot. So, now it is neither and she finally agreed. We were both very well behaved and we all had a great time. And the weather while a little cool, was great.

Pooped at the end of the day

March 2009

Alex (21 mos):
My latest antics are trying to help Mommy with anything possible. I like to try to feed Amelia anything Mommy will let me. I take the wash from the washer and put it in the dryer. I like to try and vacuum, but if you turn it on, I'll hope on the couch - noise scares me. And now that the weather is nice I love to play outside, especially on my new mini playground.

Amelia (8 m0s):
Well, I can finally crawl! I'm not 100% at it yet, but I get better everyday. And I am much more efficient if you put food in front of me. I still love all food and always seem to be hungry. Mom doesn't know where it is going though, b/c I haven't gained any weight since my 6 mos checkup. I love to watch my big brother and think he is just the coolest!

Daddy gave me spikes like his

The ball is a little big for me but I love it anyway

Another Amilla-monster attack

A quick visit from Brit and Brit Jr.

I love shoes! - Had an altercation w/a chocolate milkshake

Trying to help Amelia

Look I have all of my teeth finally! - Can you tell Mom is sick in this pic?

Where is the Amelia? - Alex thought lining my leg with stickers was downright hysterical

Happy huh?

Holding my little sis - Always with the food

March 09 - Mimi, Uncle Bill & Pop Visit

Alex: Well, having everyone here was just great. Uncle Bill is the best, he read lots of Dr. Seuss to me, like a pro. Mom said he even got the word right most of the time and I know that is hard to do. He also went on walks and played outside with me tons! He is just so much fun, I can't wait for him to come back to visit when he goes to the Masters with Mimi and Pop again.

Amelia: I also had a great time with all of the company. I was even fortunate enough to be given pickles. Which, everyone did as a joke, but boy did I fool them, b/c I just love 'em. Ya'll should know by now that I love food, just keep it coming.


We had a fantastic time with everyone visiting. The weather was in the 80s of the time so the boys golfed and the girls shopped. And there was lots of dining at outside restaurants. There were so many pics there are too many to post so check out the album.
