Make Do

As I said earlier I wasn't happy with Molly's 6 month pictures. I had planned on my sister doing some retakes, but her camera is in the shop. Molly's been growing like a weed so we were running out of stretch in her dress. Today the sun was perfect, Molly was having a good hair day, and the mood was right. After 65 photos, here are some of the best!

Crazy Week!

Our niece Katey came to stay with us on Wednesday and then on Thursday, the Holly's (Sandy, Jenna, Jessi, & Jason) came to spend the night. Bryce & Owen Clark came on Friday morning to spend the day!

Yes, you will need both hands to count ALL the kids that were at our house on Friday. There were a total of 8 (3-7 month olds, an 8 year old, 2-11 year olds, & 2-12 year olds)! There was never a dull moment and we only lost Alec (for just a few minutes) but there were lots of laughs and tons of smiles.

Jessi and Owen
Jessi was the champion feeder. She spent what felt like hours at the high chair as we rotated the babies in and out.

Molly loved being one if the girls!

Molly had no problem letting Jenna know she was TOO LOUD!

Jason & Owen cuddled up for an afternoon snooze.

Alec and Bryce had lots of laughs and slobber.

Moments

We have moments of hair pulling

We have moments of toy stealing

We have moments with smiles

We have moments with tears

We have moments that we promise to always remember

We have moments we'd like to forget

And then we have moments like these.........

You scream, I scream, We all scream

for ice cream!



Molly's first tastes of ice cream.

First Haircut

Here are some before shots of Molly's locks. She is definitely blessed/cursed with her Daddy's back hairline. She was sporting a kind of reverse tail; long on the sides but short in the middle.

Her bangs were getting so long that her eyelashes would get stuck in them when she blinked.

And since the big Stahl Family picture is this weekend, we couldn't have our daughter looking like a ragamuffin!

Here Molly is trying to look around the hairstylist to see the movie they put in for her. In Molly's world the only thing better than TV is her pacifier!

She sat like a princess and worked the room. I wouldn't expect anything less from Miss Molly!

The reverse tail is gone! But, surprisingly enough, they couldn't do anything about the bald spot. However, they did suggest to Molly that she try rolling over to help out.

And Molly can blink again like a normal baby!

Elvis is in the house

Look closely for the Elvis lip curl!
