I want to crawl so badly.....

She hasn't figured it out quite yet, but Mandy wants to crawl so badly! She kicks her legs really fast and stretches her arms out to the side and looks like a crazy little airplane, but she doesn't go anywhere! Jeff and I have a bet as to when she'll learn, so if she crawls by Thanksgiving, I win! Let's go, Mandy!! :) (By the way, how cute is her hair?!?!?!)

The cutest little Buckeye in PA!

This is for all my Buckeye-loving family members! Just because we live near State College, doesn't mean we're not looking forward to a win this weekend! Go Bucks!

First Two Teeth

Look, everybody! It might be hard to see, but I'm showing off my first two teeth!

Our Sweet Pea at her first "Trick Or Treat"

Our cute little neighbors, Kade (in what can only be described as the best halloween costume ever, and he picked it himself!) & Emily were so excited to see Mandy in her peapod costume!

What a daddy's girl she is!!

What a happy little peapod Mandy was tonight, and only two days after her surgery--amazing! She is such a sweet little girl--who's growing like a weed! She barely fit into her costume, which was HUGE on her just a few weeks ago! How did she grow that fast?!?! We are so proud of her, and loved to show her off to our neighbors!

It's time for fall!

At the first sight of some leaves in our backyard, we were anxious to get Mandy out to enjoy the beautiful fall weather! She wasn't too sure about what to do in the leaf pile (beside eat the leaves!), but we had a lot of fun playing with her! We love you, sweetie! Enjoy your first fall!

Happy 1/2 Birthday, Sweet Pea!

This seriously has been the fastest 6 months ever! Can you believe that Mandy is 6 months old already? We went to see Dr. Clapp this past week, and at 6 months 1 week, she is 16 lbs 3 ounces and 26 3/4 inches tall! She can sit and hold herself up for a long time now, and loves playing in her high chair! She still loves to jump, and she now tilts her head back and forth just like her cousin Lucy used to do! We gave her carrots for the first time this past week, and she seems to really like them! We are so proud of our little "Sweet Pea" - she's quickly growing into quite the little lady!

Those big blue eyes and that cute little tongue :)

Mandy seems to be getting used to the camera! Everytime she sees it, she stares at it and sticks her tongue out! So, you'll probably be seeing lots of pictures of her with her big blue eyes and that cute little tongue sticking out!
