"The fundamental mission of motherhood now is the same as it always was: to nurture, protect, and instruct children, to create a home environment that enables them to learn and grow, to help them develop a heart for God and his purposes, and to send them out into the world prepared to live both fully and meaningfully."

-Sally Clarkson from the Mission of Motherhood

Mary Claire is 7 months!

Some snapshots...
Loves her excersaucer

Hates baby food

We took a little mini-cation to San Antonio (Hyatt Wild Oak Ranch).  She loves swimming!

Got a bath in a sink




The hard life

Sarah Catherine came too!

She had a last lunch with big sister before school started.

Has a lot of sleeps in her car seat

Loves big bro
Has been known to have a fro...


Is just good at being cute

Played with Sissy's new lunchbox

Played in the backseat with her siblings (don't worry, we weren't moving) :)

Tries really hard to cheer for the tigers, but Mommy's team is making it really hard this year... :(

Drove a little with Daddy

Poor baby just laid down and went to sleep while grocery shopping!

Uh oh.  Got Sissy good when she was least expecting it!



Modeled some Shrimp and Grits clothing for Mommy.
Initiated a standoff against baby food

Had some fun cousin play time!
*Saying MaMa, DaDa, Nigh Nigh
*sits up well, rolls over well, but no crawling (Mommy thinks it's because she's either held or put in a contraption all the time in order to keep her safe from her wild big brother!) :)
*still a great sleeper
*very much DiSLikEs baby food :(
*loves to laugh at her siblings and is happy all the time except when she's tired or hungry
