Keeping Busy


Darby update-
Darby said DaDa on Saturday, and she waived on Monday! She is trying to crawl but can only muster up a few really big rocks and then she face plants into the floor. We went for her 6 month check up today and she is 15lb 13oz and 26in long. We got a referral to the eye surgeon, and we will hopefully have surgery to clear her tear ducts soon. Please keep her in your prayers.
Darby 6 Months

She loves Bananas


Well, a lot has gone on in the past couple of weeks. My good friend Lis was in town two weeks ago and she brought over her sweet 8 month old little girl named Ella. Ella and Darby are exactly 2 months apart, and it was so much fun to see them interact together. Here are a few pictures.

Darby's not so sure about this

Ella's on a roll



That weekend we took our youth group to OKC on a mystery trip to White Water. I say we, but Jason went with the kids while I took Darby to meet Grando, Aunt Debbie, Aunt Kathy, Uncle Terry, and Leta for the first time. There were some health issues going on with a few of Jason's family members when Darby was born so none of them had met her until then. Jason has such a sweet family, and we really enjoyed our time with them. Here are some pictures of that.

We had a wedding, 3 b-day parties, and bachelorette party last weekend so we are so exhausted. I feel very overwhelmed with life being so hectic. I truly desire to spend quality time with Darby and Jason, but between work, the youth group, family stuff, and life in general I fell like quality time goes out the door. In the next month or so I will get to start taking Fridays off of work, so hopefully I won't lose my sanity before then!

Jamie, I'm so proud of you for doing another blog! Good girl! We sure do need to get together. Haven't I been saying that since we moved back like 9 months ago.
I'm so glad you get Fridays off soon! You will love that, and so will Miss Darby!
