3 months and counting....

Well the counting stops now. I'm updating this thing FINALLY!!! I hope to keep up better but I said that last time and you see where that got me. Here's hoping again.
So, quick recap over the last few months:

May 2011 - Callie turned 8 months old and is still as cute as ever. She got her bottom teeth in and figured out the whole crawling business. It's amazing how fast she can be crawling! We met up with my parents in Amarillo for Memorial day weekend. There, we visited the zoo and tried to swim in the pool. I say try because it was freezing and Callie didn't want anything to do with that and I really didn't either.





June 2011 - We didn't have too much going in June. We went to Stillwater to see family and also had Nonie, Papaw, Uncle Jeremy, Aunt Andrea, and Connor visit at some point. Callie continues to crawl and pulls up on everything!



July 2011 - Callie celebrated her first 4th of July. She didn't mind the fireworks but wasn't all that impressed either. We went to Nonie and Papaws for that weekend too. Then, we went to see Pops and Nana and spent a week with them in the middle of July. While visiting, we went jeeping in Colorado, visited friends, and went to the Bar D Chuckwagon. Callie liked being in the mountains and enjoyed the music of the Bar D. Then, at the end of the month, we welcome our Niece/Cousin Leah!




August 2011 - Callie attended her first Smith Family Reunion the first weekend of August. Then, we took our 1st family vacation to Chicago. I had a conference to go to but we made it into a vacation while there. We visited the Willis Tower (formerly the Sears Tower), Shedd Aquarium, Navy Pier, Museum of Science and Industry, Art Institute, and took a tour of Wrigly Field. We had a lot of fun and Callie is an awesome traveler.




And that brings us to September. We went to Oklahoma State's home football opener this past weekend and enjoyed the game. Then, we had a good Labor Day at Jason's parents where we celebrated our nephew's 4th birthday. Still no walking yet but I'm sure that'll come sooner than I want...could be any day now the way she's going. We're looking forward to celebrating Callie's 1st birthday in 2 weekends! Can't believe it's been a year. I'll be sure to report on all of those festivities! And I'm sure we'll have some time at the State Fair coming up too! Can't wait!
