8 1/2 Months!

Some things about Bryce and Laney at 8 1/2 months (developmentally they're considered 5 1/2 months):

Bryce-
*He weighs 15 pounds 9.6 ounces, wears size 3-6 months and diapers size 2.
*He can sit up for a second on his own and tries to stand with just a little help.
*While on his tummy he can balance with one arm and grab a toy with the other hand.
*He can turn from his back to his tummy...but gets his arm pinned under him!
*He absolutely loves the exersaucer...it's his favorite thing to do.
*He's a crazy sleeper and moves from one end of the crib to the other...he can even turn all of the way around.
*We can get him laughing really hard...and he is so ticklish.
*His favorite game is pat-a-cake and he still loves sucking his thumb.

Laney-
*She weighs 10 pounds 13.8 ounces, wears size 0-3 months and diapers size 1-2.
*She's trying to turn over but hasn't made it yet!
*She's very talkative, smiles and laughs quite a bit.
*She constantly makes these funny noises with her mouth that some people call "blowing raspberries". It's the funniest thing!
*She loves singing and any musical toy.
*She really studies toys and seems to be trying to figure out how they work.
*When they play on the floor Bryce can completely entertain her for quite a while! She just stares at him!
*She still sucks her thumb and has very dainty little hands!
*One of the funniest things about her is that she starts crying the second you put on her bib until you give her the bottle!

Baby Dedication at Bent Tree!

Last Sunday was baby dedication at our church! Bryce & Laney did so well on stage and at lunch. Thank you to all of our family and friends that came. Bryce & Laney are so lucky to have so many people that love them. :) It was a really special day for all of us.

Doesn't Bryce look just like Kevin!

Eating before the service...

Grandmom and Granddad came early to help us get ready!

Bryce & Laney's friends Hannah and Carson were also dedicated! They're so cute!!!



These pictures were on the screen when they called their names.

After the service we went to Gazeebo burger. It was perfect timing to watch the rest of the Cowboy game!
