Peanut is 9 Months Old!!!!!!

I can't believe how fast our little peanut is growing up! She is in everything and loves to pull up on anything taller than her! She does cruise down the couch and the coffee table and go from one object to the other. Cooper and Avery were just learning how to crawl at this age.

And the girl LOVES to eat. She will follow her brother and sister around knowing that the chances of them spilling something are pretty good and she is always the first one to help "clean up."

We LOVE our peanut so much and she is always so smiley.

We love you blue eyed girl!

Our Favorite Day..........

..... is always Sunday!

We start out our morning eating breakfast while watching Pastor Phil at FBC Powell. We miss our home church so much but find it a blessing getting to worship in our native tongue with our home church.

After hearing amazing teaching from Pastor Phil, we then start getting ready for church with the nationals.

Ashlyn was loving her new little sandals.

CHEESE Tink!

She of course had to do her pose!

Then our big boy!

Thanks Cooper for taking a picture of mommy and daddy!

After getting out of church it is time for lunch and then of course a nice Sunday nap. This is our favorite day of the week!

I Wanna See

Ashlyn loves watching whatever her older siblings are watching. I guess sitting on the floor just wasn't close enough this time.

Avery wanted to pose for a picture as well. I am not sure why but her new thing is every picture she thinks she has to put her hands up to her face. I love that you can see Ashlyn still holding on trying to watch the tv.

I know this isn't much but Baga (my mom) was ready for an update!

Red, White, Blue and Tacos........

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!

Cooper loves trying to take pictures of his mommy and daddy.

Look at those eyes........ Coop you are so beautiful!

Avery is trying to wear her hair like the mexican girls.

The gang! We enjoyed our 4th of July by eating some tacos! Definitely didn't feel like 4th of July that we usually have in the states. Last year we did have burgers at least ;)

Trying to get a family pic....... ignore Ashlyn with her headband around her neck.

The Girlies! Thanks Tiff for the cookies!

After lunch we decided to go across the street and take some pictures in GRASS!

These were the best 2 of the kids out of at least 10!

They really do get along with each other, ok....... sometimes!

The many faces of Tink.........

............. and another............

......... and another! There was dog poo around that the kids could smell.

He is starting to look so much older. Where did that baby face go?

The farmers missing the ranch!

Daddy trying to get Ashlyn use to the grass. We have NO grass at our house so she wasn't liking the fact of trying to stand in it.

Finally, Tink's natural smile.

Mommy with her BIG boy and...................

......... With my BIG girl!

Daddy and his LITTLE girl!

Coop attempting another pic of daddy and mommy.

Happy Fourth of July Everyone!

Nothing Smoother Than............

CHOCOLATE PUDDING!

We were so excited to see pudding packs at Costco. Avery had NEVER had chocolate pudding. I was so excited for her to try it and knew that she would just love it.

I think she likes it! I promise her teeth aren't rotting out. She is just savoring the pudding!

Thank you Costco for getting special treats that remind us of home. If you could only get some Cracker Barrel that would be great :)
