Roger "Cole" Skipper




This is Roger Cole Skipper. He is almost seven months old. He will turn seven months on September 7th. We named him after my family. His first name is my maiden name without the s. So I am pretty partial to his name. He weighed 23 lbs and was 29 inches long at his last well baby visit at six months. We believe he is a little heavier now, because he is about to start fitting into the eighteen month clothing. Cole is laid back and easy going unless it is supper time. He loves to eat. He will eat anything that is in his sight. He also loves to drink sweet tea! If he sees your glass, you are guranteed to hear a squeal coming from him. He will want a BIG drink. Right now he is starting to pull up on things around the house. He really wants to walk, but those little legs of his arent ready yet. They will be soon, though because he is ready and very strong. We are going to be running everywhere once he is up and running. He loves to sit and smile at you when you talk. Cole also loves kisses. He will give you the best slobbery kisses in the world. He is growing up way too fast especially since this is our last baby.

Emma Cloud and her arm



Hello to family and friends,

For some of you that dont know about Emma's arm. She broke it on August 13. We didnt know at that time though. She came wailing out of her room that evening while Josh was at summer band. I asked her to move everything and she was able to. So I just blew her off as being a big drama queen. Well she wasnt after all. Last week I grabbed the wrist and she just cried. So my dad took her back to the doctor and sure enough the wrist had a buckle fracture. They put a hot pink cast on her arm. She will be in it for two weeks. That is a small amount of time, but hopefully she wont beat anyone up with the cast before then.
