9 Months Old!

Grace is 9 months old already! We can't believe she is growing up so fast! She's not walking yet, but she is crawling everywhere and walks holding on to furniture. The past 9 months have been more like a roller coaster than a road trip, but we are so grateful to be blessed with such a beautiful, healthy girl!


She tolerated her photo shoot....there were so many other things she wanted to do! 
Maggie was patiently waiting for her turn in the spotlight.

Grace didn't want to sit so we played on her ottoman.

All smiles!

This was seconds before she attempted to eat the camera....

Both our little angels!

This is the smile that we love so much!

Grace got to enjoy her cousin Ava's first birthday party on July 13. We all had a blast and here are the pictures to prove it!

Amazing decorations! Rachel is so creative! 
The spread of food.

Josh trying to balance a spoon on Grace's nose.....unsuccessful.

Grace loved walking around DJ and Rachel's coffee table.

Ava got cake!

DJ entertaining the girls. They weren't feeling very photogenic.

Rachel and I finally grabbed the girls to get a picture....if only we were all looking in the same place :)

This month has been very busy so far, and we know it will only get crazier with school starting. Teachers start back to school on Monday, so I will be getting my classroom ready in a couple of days (Yay!!!!!). Students start back August 21. Josh is also really busy getting ready for the new fall schedule at church. He will be leading a middle school outreach at church ("FreeOn") on Tuesday nights and a high school small group on Wednesdays. Please continue to pray for us as we are transitioning in to a school schedule this fall and get to invest in students' lives at church and at school.
