Carlee is so funny when she sits on the grass she will only put 1 leg on the ground. 
Just chillin'
I'm so proud of myself for using a sippy cup!!!
We are slowly winging Carlee off the bottle. It has only taken buying 4 different kinds of sippy cups to finally find one that works. And the winner is...Nuby! Thanks for the recommendation Kelly! Other exciting news...Carlee took her first 2 steps on Friday and has continued taking them several times, but after 2 steps she dives into your arms. She is standing by herself for several seconds too. Her top 2 teeth are finally starting to come in with a vengeance. Poor little girl has been running fever while they are trying to push thru the gums. Her gums are so swollen and it just looks painful. She must be going through a growth spurt because the girl eats everything. I can still squeeze her into a few 3 months outfits, but not for long. This weekend I put most of her 3 month stuff in a tubberware box - it was sad - mainly because the outfits were so cute and so tiny and I'm not ready to part with them, but I need to face reality - Carlee is less than a month away from being a ONE year old!!! She continues to be such a happy little girl and she absolutely LOVES to give people hugs - including any random person that smiles at her. The girl just lights up our life. The joy and happiness she brings to our families is indescribable - she is a true blessing from God and we could not be more thankful.

Haha - yeah, I think it's time to put the 3 month stuff away! haha. I am so glad the sippy cup is working! We just loved those. Now, she will switch between 2 or 3 different kinds, which is really nice as well She is such a big girl - steps!!! It won't be long!
i use the nuby kind for hayden too!! i miss my carlee marie so much already! i looked through all of her pictures & oh my goodness she has changed SO much!!
Caleb's first sippy cup was a nuby, too! Then, we found a cool transition cup w/ 3 diff toppers before we landed on the good ole, plain sippy cup. I hope those teeth come in quickly. Orajel makes some swabs w/ the ointment already in them that were great for on-the-go!
She is so precious! I can't believe how fast this last year has gone and that she is almost one! It fells like just yesterday that we were hanging out in the hospital rooms and going for our wheelchair strolls!!!
