Mary Reilly walks!!!!

Ok so it's not full on walking but I count three or four steps as walking. She started this morning.
I tried to fix the video and for some reason I can't. Sorry

I am going to be an Aunt!!!

I am so excited! It was a total surprise but a very good surprise. I am so glad because our baby's are going to be about a month apart.

I am so happy for both of you. I can't wait to meet this little person!

Mary Reilly's First Christmas/10 months old today

More eating the paper than opening it. Mary Reilly had a good first Christmas.

A work in progress

My brother is doing a portrait of Mary Reilly for Christmas. Needless to say these aren't finished. Trying to get a (almost) 10 month baby to stay still if work in itself. He finally had to take some pictures of her to work off of. When these are finished I will post the finished product.

Names!!

I haven't really talked about my pregnancy. I don't know why. I am almost 3 months along and I guess I really don't feel pregnant. (minus the getting sick all the time) Ladson and I were talking and picked some names. If it is going to be a girl (heehee) we are naming her Catherine (calling her Catie) Abigale Mills and of course if it is a boy Ladson Frazier Mills IV. Poor boy. Catherine is my great grandmothers name and Ladson just liked Abigale. I had an ultrasound done a few weeks ago but my dad's scanner is broken. I will post them later.

Of course these are subject to change and probably will.

Lawn mower rides

My dad took Mary Reilly on her first lawn mower ride. She liked it and didn't cry. It does look like she was scared. I just don't think she knows what to think of it.

Ladson

Ladson told me where these were taken but I forgot. Sorry. Just know they are somewhere in Iraq or that general area. I rarely get pictures of him over there so I like to post them when he sends them (hint hint Ladson). Six more months to go then he is back home. (For now) Have I ever mentioned I (and every other Army wife) HATE 15 month deployments.

On that subject: Air force only does 4 to 6 months

Navy does 6 months

Marines does 6 months

We are the only branch that does 15 months... Not fair!!!

Ok I feel better :)
