First Steps, Playdates, & More...

Our black lab, Kaleb, was laid to rest on April 27th. We planted a Dogwood tree in honor of Kaleb as we miss him immensely. I'm glad that Savannah got to know Kaleb even if it was for a short period of time.

I have been "tracked out" the last two weeks. I kept Savannah home with me last week and we had the best time! Savannah's friend, Wilson, came over for a play date. As you can see from the pictures below, they had a great time! Wilson is the son of our neighbors, Will & Alston. Wilson was born 3 weeks to the day before Savannah last summer:).

On April 25th, Savannah took her first steps behind her walker. We captured video of the event and will post it soon. She was quite proud of herself as she jabbered & smiled the entire time she was walking!

Easter Pics are here!

The day before Easter we went out to a farm to have some professional pictures done of the family and some of Savannah. Here are some of the best:

We love this set of Savannah in her little Easter Dress!
This is a nice set of Savannah and Kaleb hanging out by one of the corral fences.We are so proud of our little Savannah!. She is growing and changing every day! She is getting so mobile and constantly reaching to test her own limits. She is pulling up on everthing and getting pretty good at walking along the couch or other things that she can hold on to. We are expecting her to let go and take that first step any day! It is absolutely impossible to explain the joy and happiness that she has brought into our home!

Happy Easter!

The Sharpe's spent Easter afternoon at Uncle Waylon and Aunt Robin's house. Savannah and Noah hunted for Easter eggs and enjoyed the warm afternoon.

Savannah was very interested in the grass:).

So...we wanted to take our own Easter portrait with the Savannah and Noah. Noah did a great job holding Savannah. We are off to a great start!

Ha! It didn't last long! Nana Parham bought them matching outfits. Aren't they just adorable?

8 Months of Joy!

Savannah hasn't felt her best the past week (of course you wouldn't know it from the picture below). She still has an ear infection and we are on the 3rd round of anitbiotics. We are hoping that this new prescription will work. We feel so sorry for out little bit! She isn't sleeping well and tires herself out quickly.

Savannah turned 8 months today. She is so busy and into everything! Sean and I suspect that she will be walking within the next month.

Savannah's new game "peek a boo". She tried to sneak around the chair and the end table.

Playing, playing, playing...

Swingin' and Slapshin'

This past weekend daddy put up a swing in the back yard for Savannah's enjoyment! As you can see by the pictures, she did have a good time....

After a hard day playing, Savannah is ready for a quick dip in the tub where she is able to splash around and have even more fun!

Then its off to bed... wait a minute.... what do you mean your not sleepy yet?

Savannah has been growing by leaps and bounds! Everyday is something new and exciting. She is getting to be very mobile and is crawling all over the place. She is pulling up on things as you can see in her crib pictures. And, she is just amazing us with all the new things that she is learning day to day! We love her so much and cannot even remember what our world was like before she brightened up our lives! Thank you Savannah for showing us what a world full of love is meant to be!

Savannah Crawls...

Here is a little video of Savannah. In the past few days she has started crawling and as you can see, she almost has it down!

7 months & ____7 years!

Savannah celebrated 7 months on Saturday, March 6th. Where does the time go? I celebrated my 37th birthday on March 4th. The pictures below are from our family celebration. Savannah enjoyed playing with cousin Noah and seeing her family!

Savannah and Noah. I love the way she is looking up at him in this picture.



















Uncle Waylon and Savannah. How cute is this dress? It was a Christmas present from Uncle Waylon and Aunt Robin!
























Cheeeeeeeese!





















I couldn't resist this picture! Sean snapped this one of Savannah cuddled up with her blanket one night.

Savannah crawled for the first time on Tuesday, March 10th! Watch out world...here she comes!! Stay tuned for video of her crawling.
