We have been busy at our house the past few days! We started the weekend off with Round 2 of Thirty and Flirty. Pop and Mimi came into town to help celebrate this round. We had a fun day of shopping, eating, and watching football. We even got a sitter on Saturday night so we could have an "adult dinner" out on the town. Pop and Mimi brought Mommy some surprises for her birthday, but THIS was one surprise that Mommy DID NOT like...
Pop, you are in big trouble!
Surprise Cake!
Dinner at Home
On Sunday, Blair and I met up with Megan and Quinn at the Pumpkin Patch. The cold weather kindof snuck up on us, so I had to run out last minute to get us some winter gear! It was quite cold and windy while we were there, but we still had a good time. We were there just long enough to get some good photos of the girls!
And finally, we had Blair's 9 month check-up on Monday. She weighs 20 lbs and 10 oz (75th)and is 27 1/4 inches long (50th). She got the first round of her flu shot and got her toe pricked :( She did pretty well, but we were glad it was over! Dr. Pip says she is doing great and we can gradually start to introduce table food! We started off with peas and cheese last night and it seems she is a fan! She is such a big girl these days and has all kinds of new tricks. She is crawling, pulling up, climbing, and trying to stand. She waves bye-bye (at any random time) and can say ma-ma and da-da, although the verdict is still out if she knows what they mean or not. She hates most of the toys we have bought for her, but loves the cell phone, home phone, and remote control. She does have an owl that we call "Bird" that she really really loves. We are warming her up to her stuffed puppy dog and teddy bear because she seems to be a little scared of them. She's not a fan of the sippy cup (any suggestions are welcome) and only wants to chew on it. We are also dealing with a little bit of stranger and separation anxiety, but Dr. Pip assures us it is a phase and when she is older we will be begging for her to want us! HA!
So, that pretty much sums up what we have been up to. Daddy and Mommy are off to Baton Rouge this weekend for the game. It's our first "alone trip" since the baby and we are excited and nervous all at the same time! We are looking forward to a wonderful trip! War Eagle!!

I can't believe Blair is old enough to eat table food, crazy! Have fun this weekend, yall deserve some time away, War Eagle!
Blair's face with that UofA hat on is hysterical! She knows she is not an Alabama fan! Love your TB cake...that is awesome! Happy 30th! War Eagle!
GAG-her face says it ALL! And did you straighten her hair for the pumpkin patch, where in the world are the curls?!?! :) And lastly, KISS THOSE CHEEKS FOR AUNT JENN.
Love yall, WDE!!
Hang in there on that sippy cup. We started giving Caleb one at 6 months and 4 months later at 10 months he actually drinks out of it instead of chewing it. I just kept giving it to him (I'd use water b/c it was just a waste of juice :)). Happy Birthday!!
