GA Game

Last weekend was the Ole Miss v. GA game....our dear friends are GA bulldogs and we had quite the spread in the Grove. Elizabeth Magee and Thomas got to spend 6 out of 7 days together so it was a good week for their friendship (not a good week for the Rebels)
They really do love each other....EM does most of the "patting" and Thomas looks at her so sweetly!


May and I went to the game and the babies stayed in the Grove.



This is my 10th football season knowing Oliver and his mother's first Grove appearance in 10 years (to the best of my knowledge).....we loved getting to see her and EM! EM is lucky to have two grandmothers that will love on her anytime!

7 Months - Tricks of the Trade

Elizabeth Magee was 7 months last Tuesday -- gosh it's taken me a while to post these pictures! She is such a wiggle worm I have to wait until she's almost asleep to take pictures!

EM's main occupation right now is putting EVERYTHING in her mouth. She weighed in on her 7 month birthday at 15.5 pounds. We are wearing size 2 diapers, and clothes range from 3 months to 12 months!


EM ALMOST can waive....


We still have no teeth. At one point when she was 3 months old I was convinced she was teething, and then I was convinced again about 5 months. Now...I don't know....no teeth.


Found her toe.....


And the toe goes exactly where everything else goes.....in her sweet little mouth! This morning she actually had both toes in her mouth -- but I didn't get a picture!



EM and Thomas can now "play" or he sits on the floor and EM pulls at his arm, leg, hair, or whatever is in her reach. She then proceeds to try to put said arm, leg, or hair in her mouth! Once he's able to move, I'm sure he'll put her in check but for now she rules the roost.



If you tell EM to be nice, this is the expression you get - so cute!!!


I've got some cute pics from the Grove last weekend but I'm waiting on a certain Sarah Wall to email me a picture first....hint hint...

An Apple a Day

My favorite part of the work day is my lunch...where I run home and grab an hour full of hugs and kisses from my girl! EM's current favorite thing to do is help me eat my apple. I take a bite and then she takes a lick. I take a bite and then she takes another lick. If I try to get two bites to her one lick she's not happy! I know the picture is kind of blurry but it's the best Madeline could do!


We've also entered the world of TOYS....can't get enough of these donut things! EM is 7 Months Today -- we are going to take some 7 month pictures tonight and I'll post later!

Personal Space

Personal space is at a premium in our house. Ally just wants to sit next to me and EM just wants to sit on Ally. Shortly after this picture I looked over and EM was CHEWING on Ally's ear. That is not clean in so many ways!

Grove, Zoo, and 28 Weeks

Elizabeth Magee had a REALLY fun first Labor Day weekend. We took her to the Grove with us on Saturday and Siggi took her back to Senatobia before kick off. On the way home, I asked Oliver what was his favorite part of the day. Answer? Kick-off. So typical. My favorite part? Stopping three girls walking out of the Tri-Delt house and getting stickers for me and EM. Of course she spit up on hers and it was a gonner in about 10 minutes....but still so fun!

My college freshman roommate. Who would have thought that eight years later we would have three kids between the two of us? Her blog is REALLY fun and you can see it HERE.




On Sunday, EM turned 28 weeks. She has just mastered sitting up -- but don't go far b/c she's going to fall over. She wants so bad to crawl....she'll be crawling in a month I imagine.




Look at those eyes? Big as saucers!

Monday we joined the Zoo. We got this cute picture:



Itook pictures at just about every animal stop. This is Oliver's "put out with Julia face".....it's a common face around our house if he's been off work and stuck with me for more than 48 hours!

Are You Ready?

This little girl is READY for her first Ole Miss experience this weekend! She'll be saying "Hotty Toddy" before we know it......












This morning I was giving EM a bottle....thinking about what I'd be doing on the first Friday morning before the first home game if I was still at Ole Miss....I was dreaming of late Thursday nights at the Library (the bar), bacon and egg breakfasts at the Tri Delt house, fried Friday lunch at the DG house with Leigh Allyn, going to the Square on Friday night, rushing to get a shower on Saturday morning in the DDD house before the hot water ran out, trying to find the perfect outfit to wear with my favorite date:





I think this picture was taken our senior year....don't you love O's DDD sticker? I took so many my senior year....I still have some....which EM and I will both be wearing tomorrow!
