The Channel Family: October 2009

Keep Austin Weird

She has to be twirling someone's hair at all times

Tuckered Out

No really guys....I AM a Tough Guy!

Sitting Up All by Himself!

Grandma and B....twirling hair again!

Cheeeeeese

Bella calls it a baby doe...so sweet

Looking for trouble

Lil' blue eyes

Rocking her baby dog

And putting a diaper on her baby dog hehehe....I swear I have not been training her!

Working...or as Bella calls it Wohk!

Kisses Galore

Hook 'em!!

Hmmm....Bella has been playing dress up again.

(Notice the bracelets on his ankles...sweet outfit Brody)

We are so excited that Fall is here! Although Fall has brought quite a bit of rain our way...which, if you have ever been in the house with two children under 2 for too long, you are very thankful for sunshine again!

Brody and Bella have a ball with each other and they both get such a kick out of making the other laugh. Thank the Lord!!! We do not have jealousy or anything of the sort. We really have been so lucky with Bella's acceptance of her baby brother. She even takes his hands and teaches him how to sign....Da-Da Ma-Ma Stop Go Eat and on and on and on!! Although he really has no clue what she is doing, it is really amazing to watch :)

Brody is sitting up all by himself and he just took his first crawl tonight, which unfortunately resulted in a digger right into the blanket because he forgets to move his hands most of the time. The knees keep going though and he ends up scootching across the carpet on his forehead hahaha! Bella roots for him and screams every time he rolls, crawls or does anything that she thinks warrants a scream really. Everyone has to have a cheerleader right??!! :)

Bella is also talking up a storm. She repeats everything we say but lately has started to really understand how things work and look at things in a different way. She wants to know how her toys work and where the clothes go when they get folded, and wants to help us do everything. She is such a sweetheart and really has the biggest heart of any little punkin' I have ever seen!

We have been quite busy with work lately! I have had a wedding almost every weekend the last month and Matt has diligently been working on marketing and licensing for his new custom outdoor living business, Southern Outdoor Appeal, which launches in January 2010! We are SO excited to start the new business and Matt & I are really having a great time working on the creative side of it all as well.

Love to you all and we hope everyone has a safe and Happy Halloween!!
