The week in pictures

**Val and Izzy are safe, Brandon and Mandy are as well. Check out their blogs for details and pictures (Valdez Family and Forsythe Family)**

Well we have no cable but have no fear....we have a ROCKIN AWESOME antenna that gets a great digital signal! We have about 20 channels which includes some great praise and worship channels along with qubo (a kids channel that has veggie tales, fun British cartoons and lamb chop!!) We also have an 8:00 news at night which allows us to get to bed a little earlier. Val is still in Ft Worth so Stephanie and I will be heading to hang out with them Friday after school. Josh is having no trouble getting extra jobs, Thank you God for providing!! I have AN ELECTRIC oven now (I hated the gas, too scary!) and a new microwave! Cooking at the Brooks' house is in full swing...........I'm lovin it! Here are some cute pics of my BIG girl! She's pulling up on EVERYTHING and taking steps (still holding on, of course). She has taken 4 "real crawls" in a row....but think she may go straight from army crawling to walking, we'll see. Enjoy!!

SO BIG! "pulling up" without anything to really grip.

Helping mom in the kitchen....playing in the doggies water and helping load the dishwasher.

Playing with Roxy (they both had a rawhide bone...yucky!)
Getting ready for her bath.....she loves to watch the tub fill up.
She LOVES to play in her crib! She plays for about 15-20 minutes now before she'll go to sleep....no matter how tired she is!

Eating applesauce and bananas with Gampa....She loved the "airplane"

Daddy and Josh came over to install my new microwave.
These were just cool....I had never seen these screw things before (they are for the drywall)

Loving my new oven/range and microwave! Made Josh chicken taco's the first night.....cookies are on the list for this weekend :)

She LOVES to pull up on the coffee table!!! and can reach ANYTHING on it! We've had to move everything off it and just keep some of her books up there....
Such a big girl!! She's so much fun and I treasure every moment I have with her. I can't wait to do this again.......
