Fall Youth-Group Kick-off....Tailgate Party!!!

Tonight we kicked off youth-group for the fall and had a tail-gate party! Guess whose idea that was????? We had a great time and had a wonderful turnout...some kids we'd never even seen before! So far...off to a great start! Ellyson was a great tail-gater too!

A Day With Mimi and Pop

While Daddy was in Blacksburg watching a "nail-biter," Ellyson and I went to hang out with Mim and Pop. Ellyson liked showing off all her crawling tricks, picking up everything she could find on Mim's carpet! We planned on getting some errands done, but unfortunately that didn't happen...easy things to do, seem so difficult with a little one! Guess we'll have to go drop off laundry, go to Target and clean the house tomorrow! We will all be attending the BIG Brandermill Youth-Group kick-off tomorrow night having a "Tailgate Party" wearing our team colors! Check back later for pix!

Crawling??????

What in the world???? We came home from work tonight and our tiny little "baby" was moving all around!!! She has been rocking on her hands and knees and we knew it was coming....but it was still very surprising and just a little sad! Where did our baby go???? Check out the link! :)

Big Girl...

Ok...maybe a little early!

First day of school

Look! Arms out!

I'm free!

Major things are happening in the Catlett household! Ellyson started her new daycare the first part of September at Good Shepherd Lutheran Church. This is the daycare that Rich and I have been waiting to open. So far, we are pretty happy with what is happening. Ellyson is trying to crawl, so we are thinking she might "graduate" from her infant room pretty quickly. So many changes...we hope it is not too much for her. She is having a hard time napping, so bedtime comes very early in our house. Finally, after 6 months, we have transitioned out of the swaddling blanket!! This is a HUGE step for us...we started with arms out and then tonight was the first night of no blanket! What a BIG girl!

Go Dawgs....

Well, the Dawgs didn't pull it out last night, but we are hoping for better things to come! Ellyson was ready for gameday, but fell asleep and threw up all over her outfit before the game even started!!! Oh well....we celebrated anyway today because today Ellyson turned 6 months!!! I can't believe time has gone by so fast...it seems like yesterday!
