Pumpkin Patch

Saturday we went to a pumpkin patch that was set up on the field at the Frisco Roughrider ball park. Admission was free and they also had free bratwurst (so yummy!). It was a great opportunity for free family fun. We met some friends there and, together, we all enjoyed the beautiful day.

Stonebriar Church Fall Festival

We spent our Friday night at the church's Fall Festival. It was a huge event spread out all over the church campus with a cake walk, bounce houses, rock-climbing wall, and numerous games to name a few. Our adult fellowship class sponsored and worked a game booth. We had a great turn out and a fun time for our little ones to show off their adorable costumes. 

Proud Papas!

*There are a few more functions where Mabry gets to wear her costume. Stay tuned future posts...*

Yummy Grapes!

Mabry loves grapes! Listen to her tell you how yummy they are!

9 Months Old

Mabry is now 9 months old! I often look at her and see that my baby is growing into a little girl. To me, it is bitter sweet. I am enjoying the baby days, but I know how fun the little girl days are going to be. 

Mabry got her first fever on the day she turned 9 months old. My poor baby is getting over a sore throat and temperature. We had her 9 month doctor visit already scheduled so I just took her in for that as well as to get her sickness checked out. Fortunately, she tested negative for the flu and strep throat. The doctor said it was just a virus or cold that will run it's course. 

Besides her being sick, she got an A+ for her 9 month physical. He said she is advanced on her fine motor skills and her language skills. I do believe her first word is "kitty" or "kee". She says it every time she sees Daisy. Mabry is not crawling yet just rolling everywhere. I know she will crawl once she decides she is ready. 

Here are her 9 month stats:

Weight: 19 lbs 11 oz - 75%

Height: 29 in. - 95-97%

Head: 18 in. - 95%

Window Shopping!

Today, Mabry and I went to the mall with our friends Pam and Grayer. We strolled around chatting and trying to come up with gift ideas for the upcoming holiday season. I think she is learning early on how fun it is to shop!

These are our little shoppers... The preferences of male and female is obvious so early on... Grayer snoozed while the girls went from store to store. 

We decided to have a little fun and see how Mabry liked trying on hats... This is one of the cute ones if she would just keep it on!

Mabry's Baby Dedication

Bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord. 

Ephesians 6:4

We, Chad and Julie Huffman commit ourselves to the Christian nurture of Mabry Elizabeth entering into this commitment at Stonebriar Church as part of the congregational worship on September 13, 2009.

We celebrated Mabry's dedication with both sets of grandparents and her Uncle Brad, Aunt Rhonda, and Cousin Annabelle. We enjoyed sharing this special day with our family.

8 Months Old!

Our baby girl is 8 months old today. I cannot get over the fact that she is so much closer to 1 year old than she is to being a newborn! 

For Labor Day, they had a promotion going on for a free chicken sandwich if you came in wearing your favorite team logo. Chad, Mabry, and I decided to enjoy our family lunch and supper together there. We love Chick-fil-A!
