9 Months - 5/9/12

Natalie turned 9 months this week.  She is doing great.  I forgot to put the bear next to her this time again. 

She has been starting to pull off her socks.  She even pulled off her friend's sock from daycare. 

Almost off...

Ahhh!!!

We had swim class on Friday, and Mommy got to go visit.  It was a lot of fun.  She did so well and there was no crying.  She kicks like crazy. 

Here she is at daycare jumping and belly laughing.  She loves the johnny jumper. 

This weekend we went up to Scarborough, ME to Pleasant Hill Disc Golf Course.  This is the course that Chris dives in their ponds to retrieve discs.  He started last year and usually pulled out about 400-600 discs at a time.  This time, since he hadn't been there since November, he got 894.  That is a lot of crappy disc golf players.  Just kidding.  They have 4-5 small ponds and a large pond so it is pretty easy to throw them in.  Natalie and I went up with him and hung out with Kristy the owner and her son, Logan who is almost 9.  We had a fun day.  It was gorgeous.  After we got done there, we headed to Auburn, ME to another disc golf course to check it out.  Chris has a tournament coming up on 6/2.  We had a great but long day.  Unfortunately we didn't take any pictures. 

Sunday was my first official Mother's Day.  It was a nice day.  Chris made breakfast for me in the morning.  Then we headed to Wentworth Gardens to pick up some tomato plants, peppers and onions to plant in the garden.  I also picked out a new palm tree for my present.  My old one from the wedding died this past fall.  Hopefully this one will last.  It was a great day of swinging in the swing and hanging out on the lawn under her tent for Natalie.  It was another beautiful day and I really enjoyed hanging out with Natalie and Chris. 

Happy Mother's Day to all you moms who are reading this.
Hope this finds all of you well.  Rocky is doing great along with the rest of us.  See you next week.
