Star Performer: Annabelle

Annabelle at 6 months started eating solids like rice cereal and loved it!  She also is a pro at rolling over, sitting up on her own and she really enjoys bath time.  She will always have the starring role in our house!

Tummy time in your crib and where you also like to practice rolling

 over from your tummy to your back.

Such a big girl sitting up all on your own and playing with your toys! 

It was a fun occasion when we could give you a bath in Grandma Schaub's sink, 

you found it to be very fun!

My Kingman Girls

Honestly without these girls I would go more crazy in this weird little town.  They often times come to rescue Annabelle and I.  We like going out to lunch at Donut Deli for their breakfast burritos, we also enjoy making crafts and just having girl time.  Oh yes...we also talk about the odd sites we see here in Kingman...there are many.  We went over to Ashley's house and made some cake pops and these tasty oreo cookie balls that Lisa knew how to make.

Annabelle and Charlotte, we like to call them our Southern Belle's!  I'm so thankful that I met Rachael because we have been hanging out a lot and it's fun that Charlotte and Annabelle are around the same age.  I met her in the nursing long one Sunday at church, she was in there feeding Charlotte and I didn't recognize her and knew that I had to make friends with her because she looked normal and not like the other crazy Kingman people I had met!  I had prayed that I would be able to meet some girls to hang out with, I had been missing my friends and family so much!

Fancy Cars

A perk that comes along with Jeff working for Chrysler is that they let him bring home cars to "test drive" which really means we get to cruise around in them for pleasure!  It's nice because it allows us to leave Kingman for a bit on their dime and eat at some restaurants in Havasu or Bullhead City.  Sometimes we just need a break from good ol' K-town!  Daddy of course really loved this car, it's so his style!
