Dinosaurs


Shortly after this photo was taken, unfortunately Russ and Michelle were eaten by the large carnivorous dinosaur which came up from behind them. A simple trip to Zilker Park in Austin meets a horrible end.


(The Dennys and Bosses had a great time at the "Dinoland" exhibit today in Zilker Park with Megan and cousin Veronica.)

Megan and her cousin Cameron

9.5 months

Looks like I missed the 9 month post - oops! At Megan's 9 month appointment she weight 17lbs 12 oz, and was 28.2" tall! She's getting big! We started finger foods at 9 months and it took Megan about a week before she caught on but now she's very into it! She's eating all kinds of foods, we cut up our dinner into pieces for her. She's had spaghetti and meatballs, turkey, baked ziti, steamed veggies, string cheese, cheerios and lots more. Cheese seems to be her favorite so far. And for the past 2 weeks she's been drinking out of a straw cup!

Megan also now has 7 teeth! 6 of which have come in the last 2.5 weeks! Poor girl! I haven't been able to get a picture of them yet though. She's also been getting more into swimming (we go once a week with Gramby!), she's kicking her legs and this week she started making swimming movements with her arms too - soooo cute!

Megan's been talking a lot more too. She's got her mama's and dada's down, she even seems to use them with some purpose. And she's making new sounds all the time. The latest is a gaht gaht which we think if for cat!


Here's Megan walking down our sidewalk


Last weekend Russ and I went zipling in Spicewood, TX at Cypress Valley Canopy Tours, it was a blast! Here are some pics.




I have some videos to post too but for some reason they keep timing out when I upload them. I'll get them up soon though. Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!!!

New Videos

Just a quickie post for some new videos.

Here's Megan with her lion again, you can see how she's progressed in her lion pushing skills :-) She gets upset at the end though because she get's the lion stuck and can't get it to move again.


The second one is also of Mr. lion (as we call him) but in the beginning you can hear some great Megan "talking"

Happy Halloween!

We've had a nice halloween - would have been better if Russ was feeling better but still we had fun with Megan. Thursday I picked Megan up at daycare early and took her to my work for the Halloween kiddie party! We had fun; mostly it was me showing her off in her ladybug costume snice most of the games were for toddlers and older kids, but still fun! They did have one game where you fished out halloween duckies from a little tub - Megan loved that! She loves her bath duckies at home. Although it was hard to give back the duckies after she fished them out! On Halloween we went "trick-or-treating" to our neighbors early to show them Megan's costume and then headed over to Gramby and Granddaddy's. When we finally got back home we had one tired baby (who slept well last night!).


Megan and Mommy at work on Thursday! In my cube :-)


On Halloween night in our yard


Crawling in her costume. Yep that's sweet potatoe that we didn't get totally off her face from dinner...
