A filled three months....

These past three months we have been traveling a lot over our vacation and holiday time off as we still attempt to balance marriage, Lydia, residency and our other important relationships. Filled with some fantastic unforgettable memories as well as harder, more difficult moments and situations, the Lord has graciously met our needs at the close of 2010... and we are thankful. Here are some of those highlights....start at the bottom which is October. I'm looking forward to posting more later.

Crawling now, Lydia will be 9 months on Thursday.

This is our attempt to take a family walk in December...we turned around at our next door neighbor's house.

Early December, Lydia fell off the couch. The scrapes on her forhead are the imprint of the carpet. Fallen on Daddy's watch: zero....fallen on Mommy's watch: two :(

Thanksgiving in Atlanta

beginning of November...preciousness

off to watch some UGA football games...sunlight yea!

You know its time to give up the swing when you walk in the room and see your child dangling over the side while it is swinging full speed. In hindsight, I probably should have saved my child before reaching for the camera.

6 month appointment...Lydia is healthy but on the 5th percentile in weight. Very concerning for me...I have been more diligent in feeding her which has been quite exhausting.

Our long walks on the beach now include pushing a huge stroller tied to these two mutts...and of course stopping to feed.
