I'm on a roll this month, I think this is the third time I have posted!!!

Aunty Sheri found this costume in Raeanne's room and decided to dress her up! She looked quite cute as a puppy dog!!

And I finally got some fall shots, almost missed the season altogether, but luckily the snow held off. There is a lot of pictures of pretty much the same thing but she is so cute it is hard to pick!!

All bundled up for a walk in the stroller, it was pretty cold.

Danny taught her how to kick a soccer ball, she thinks it is really fun! She is pretty much a natural.

Raeanne at 9 Months

Raeanne has reached some exciting milestones in the last month. Raeanne may look like she is crawling in many of these pictures but she is still not crawling. She gets herself up on her hands and knees all the time but she just really does not enjoy it at all. I'm always excited when she shows signs of moving forward but she usually ends up crying. However, about a week ago she decided she could walk. She is not walking completely on her own yet but she can take about 4-6 steps on her own and she can balance in one spot for 5 seconds or so. She seems to be pretty excited about that. I will have to get some pictures. She also got her first tooth in the last week. It took a long month of teething so we were pretty excited to see the tooth break through. Now we are battling the colds, it seems to be a never ending chain of colds. Raeanne and I are fighting a cold now and I am looking forward to the end of runny noses. Although now that mommy is blowing her nose it seems to be okay for Raeanne to have her nose wiped!!! We also moved in the last month, it was only a short distance move. We moved to the house next door, which is also on Alliance Churches property but it is bigger than our old house. You will see our lovely new carpeting that we attempted to cover with an area rug!! It is nice because the house is more open and Raeanne can see me from one room to the next, she is much happier when she can see me.

Raeanne playing in her toybox Playing on her bedroom floor Up on all fours!! It usually lasts longer if I pretend I am not looking so that she thinks I can't help her. Raeanne has started holding her own bottle, look only one hand!! Playing with her elephant from Grandma and Grandpa Biette Hmmmmm, how can I get to my toys without crawling??

Biette Baby #2

We are now 21 weeks through our second pregnancy and everything looks good so far. This baby is due on February 26th

This is kind of a creepy looking picture but it is the baby's skull looking at it from the top.
