Savannah photos and miscellaneous


This summer at 9 months and 10 months old (I'm getting so behind on my photos). Savannah is the most inquisitive, happy baby (unless she's mad:) Happy baby; "I want your camera Mom"; and one of her favorite things to do...rip paper apart (babies are strangely fascinated by it...at least ours have been....maybe it's the crinkly sound) and finding tiny objects on the floor with her little fingers (we're vacuuming a whole lot more lately); trying to get me through the window.
She's 11 months now....actually only about 2 wks away from her first birthday. That was a fast, exhausting year!
Some of the kids went to grandma's this afternoon after school to give me some time to pack. We're almost done.....thank goodness (I just love packing....so.much.fun). Jonah's been carrying around a backpack for 2 wks waiting to go...I was missing some things from the kitchen and guess where they were....his backpack....he had it filled up with a little bit of everything). Livy turns 6 while we're there....Emily was so sweet to wrap her presents to take with us. I'll miss the dogs who are spending time in a vet kennel. Poor things...they were shaking when they went in....that's my least favorite part of the trip....leaving the dogs and packing.... The kids are so excited....even if some of them have to take some schoolbooks. I went to Target for some late shopping tonight. Laura wanted an iTunes card and a book for the trip. I found some cute clearance beach cover-ups for the girls and some camo shorts for Ben. Still have to do some things to get ready. Hope I don't forget anything. That would be amazing if we didn't.

She is so cute! All of my babies loved paper too!

Ahhh...thanks! Yours too? So I'm not the only one finding little pieces of paper on the floor before she does. Chewing on paper is one stage I'll be glad to move past:)
