Alexis and Cole's Baptism

Alexis and Cole were baptized on February 27, 2017 at our church, Redeemer Methodist in Manvel.  We have been attending the church since September.  We joined the church the week before and they were so accommodating to allow us to baptize the kids while Danielle was still in town.  We were so blessed to have some friends attend the baptism.  We had a brunch at the house after to celebrate the occasion.  Here are some pictures from the day.

 Introducing our family and reading our favorite bible verse, Proverbs 3 5-6

 No idea what we are doing:)

Opening presents

Cole 7 Months, Alexis 26 Months

Cole turned 7 months on Valentine's Day, 2/14/17.  He weighs 18 lbs and is 27.5 inches long.  He can crawl backwards. Still working on going forward.  He holds a plank position for a long time...think he is trying to figure out how to move forward.  He sat up by himself on 3/1/17.  I almost missed it.  He was playing in my room while I put away some wash.  I looked down and he was sitting up.  So cute.  He can really get around in his walker.  He can say ma, ma, ma, MA:)  He waves and I think he is saying hi but not sure.  His bottom two teeth are in and he is getting more.  He is not a fan of vegetables. He loves yogurt. He is always smiling and just so happy.

Alexis is saying more words everyday.  She is learning the difference between "mine" and "yours".  She will say this is "yours" when she really wants to say "mine"  So of course it is cute and funny.  She is talking in full sentences. She loves reading her books, playing with her little people and cooking in her kitchen.  She has so much energy and has a great sense of humor.

Here are some pictures from the month:

 Alexis wanted to eat like Cole so I'm feeding both...this phase didn't last
