Compare the babies!










I hear lots of "oh Bethany looks like mom, oh she looks like dad, oh she looks like grandpa" but they all agree Bethany looks like Julia...so here ya go...some side by side comparisons?

Bethany is 3 months!

Bethany is 3 months old today! I can hardly believe it! At 3 months, Bethany is weighing 13 lbs and 8 oz! Her favorite activites include eating, sleeping, pooping, talking, and watching the world from her swing. She also LOVES the water both at bath and in the pool! She has discovered her hands and eats them all the time! Her facial expressions remind me SO much of her Daddy! In the mornings I go in and get her up and she pulls her face up and strecthes...than we go wake Daddy up and he pulls his face up and stretches and they look some much alike. I think she could pass for Julia some days as well...however, Julia was 6 months old before she weighed 13 pounds!


Memphis is 5!

Memphis turned 5 this week and boy was he excited about being 5! He has watched all the things Gage did when he was 5 and now he is excited for it as well! Memphis has become quite the baseball player much to his papa's delight. He will recruit anyone to pitch a ball to him so he can hit it or beg for somebody to catch with him. His smile is the orniaste smile I have ever seen! He marches to the beat of his own drum not worrying about the world around him. He loves his siblings and is a good big brother to them. This summer he learned how to swim without a life jacket and jump off the diving board.



This picture pretty much sums up the kids in the Baker house!

Trip to GA

We flew to GA this summer to visit Nannie and Paw-Paw. It took Julia awhile to warm up, but Bethany quickly figured out that Paw-Paw would feed her while he gently rocked and talked to her. We enjoyed every moment with the and wished we lived closer!


While there we meet up with David's best friend April and her family at a really cool place for kids. They had all bouncy blow up equipment and the girls had a blast! I am not sure how many tTimes Isabella and Julia climed the starts to slide down the slide...they did it for a solid 3 hours!
