Welcome Dylan

Here is our newest addition to the Wright family, Dylan Gibson Wright. Dylan, his beautiful sister Pslam, Uncle Casey (Charlies brother) and Auntie Piyarat live in Thailand. Avie loves him already, she has insisted on kissing the computer screen at least 10 times, and she keeps waving at him. We love you Dylan and cannot wait to meet you in July!

Slides and Sweepers

Miss Independent climbing up the slide by herself :) I think that is a combo of food and wilderness on her face! haha

New favorite hobby... using and fixing the sweeper! She loves to sweep, which will come in handy as she gets into her teen years.

We also have a new nephew! Charlie's brother, Casey, and his wife Piyarat are missionaries to Thailand, and they welcomed their new baby into the world! Dillion Gibson Wright was born today, which was really yesterday in Thailand. 7 pounds and "something" according to Grandma Dee. Not sure how long since they don't use inches over there. Please pray for him, he currently is fighting a lung infection and is on oxygen. I will post pictures as soon as we get them via email.

Feeding the squirrels

Here are some pics from Mamaw and Papaws (Burr) today. The first several they were refilling the corn for the squirrels, then she was riding in her car, and lastly she was eating a popsicle. She is pantless in the pictures because I sent her jeans, needless to say it was too hot! Our big girl turned 16 months yesterday, so hard to believe!

These boots were made for walking

Mamaw Burr got Avington these boots today while shopping in Canton. I had been looking for a pair for her to slop around in when it rains, but the ones I liked were almost $30, and I am not paying that for them to get muddy. So... mom found these at Once Upon A Child for $2.50! Needless to say, she loves them :) She wore them to the soccer game tonight and then wanted them on as soon as she got out of the tub. Too stinkin' cute! In this one her boot fell off, but she just kept going with one boot on.

FINALLY!

Camden "Cami" Ann Loomis made her way into the world early this morning! She weighed in at 8 lbs 12 oz. Beth had a fast delivery, less than 2 1/2 hours :) Cami was being born as they were giving her the epidural. She is just beautiful! You can't tell from the picture, but she has tons of jet black hair!

Congratulations Scott, Beth and Parker!

(Here is the great part... she was born on my birthday!!!)

Baking with Mamaw

Avie and Mamaw Burr were baking this afternoon. These are some cute pictures my mom captured on her camera. A woman after my own heart... goes for the sweets!

Family Updates

Hello All!
Its been a long time since I have posted pictures, but my camera battery is dead and I need to charge it. I will post new pics of Avie as soon as I have it charged :)

AVIE: Walking, talking, and has her own independent personality. She is just so much fun and very independent. She has several words now: mommy, daddy, hi, bye bye, night night, more, ball, dog, duck, jump, go, baby, juice, mamaw, boo boo, hello. Sounds: bear, dog, duck, cow, beep beep (I know I am forgetting some words and sounds). It also amazes me how much she understands and follows multi-step directions. She is also very animated/dramatic! Its so funny! We are just so blessed to have her as our baby girl... who is not so much of a baby anymore. She will be 16 months on the 22 of September! Where has the time gone....

CHARLIE: Please pray for him. He has an official job interview with River View schools on the 15th of September with the maintenance department. He has been working with them as a "sub" for several months now and they recently started taking applications. So please keep him in your prayers on the 15th :) He has been busy with this that and the other, and really enjoys Avie. Every night before we go to sleep we talk about all the funny things she did that day.

JACIE: Back to school! Busy schedule this year. I have lots of first graders and third graders this year. By the looks of speech screenings for kindergarten, lots more with be joining the party.

Hope you all have a wonderful week :)
I will post pictures soon
