I had a helper last Saturday......

This past Saturday, Siena - Gentry's cousin came to spend the day with us.

She was a big help with Gentry - from meal time to keeping him hydrated. =)

It was a fun day - a good test for handling 2 at a time.

We'll see.....

Gentry is getting around....becoming more independant

This video is for everyone - who doesn't get to see Gentry very often.

He is a mover and a shaker.

He's getting around more and more everyday & becoming very independant.

Hangin' out my Daddy!

Messmer Hayride

Gentry headed to the farm - Messmer Farm, that is....

Gentry got to see a lot of family, go on a hayride and

feed horses on the farm.

We had such a good time!

October is here....to the pumpkin patch we go....

GENTRY CRAWLS - ok, he "army crawls"

It's official! Gentry has been trying to crawl for a couple of weeks now.

But unfortunately, he has been pretty frustrated. But I believe what

they say, "babies do what they want, when they want". I guess Gentry feels that it is time.

Well, at least time to "army crawl". I understand most babies do this first.

Either way, it's exciting to watch him go from place to place throughout the house.

Hopefully as a the weeks progress, he'll work his way to "hands and knees"!

But until then - WE ARE PUMPED!

Watch and see in the above video:

our family...

"our family.....it's something special"

It was such a special thing to see Gentry's face the first time

he went to the beach and saw the ocean.

Even more cool......is the "hands in the sand" picture.

On our honeymoon, Robby and I took a picture of our hands in the sand.

Robby printed it and had it framed for me.

It now hangs on the wall, in the hallway of our home.

Now having a new addition to our family: Gentry,

it only seems right to upgrade the picture.

Gentry did a great job keeping his hand still for the picture.

It will be neat to share the story with him one day.
