Our BUSIEST Weekend!!

This is EVERYONE that came to see the dedication! I think we, BY FAR, had the largest group! That's how we do things though!

Had to get Korynnie's lil' bloomers!

The family with their first cake...cookie cake that is! Needless to say mommy and daddy ate a WHOLE lot more than the girls!!! I believe this is the first time the girls have ever been to a restaurant too!

Here we all are...on stage with Pastor Sal! You should have heard the ooo's and aww's!
Grammy and Rylie!
Mimi and Rylie!
Avery and Pop!
Korynnie, Paw Paw, and Grandma!

The Marquart 5! Mimi was jumping around like a crazy lady trying to get the girls to smile, but Bryan and I were the one's that couldn't stop CRACKIN' UP!
Tia Liz and Rylie!
Daddy and Korynnie!
Mommy and Rylie...Rylie was sure makin' the rounds! She has a pic with everyone!
The Marquart 5 with Pastor Sal!
I wanted to take this picture so bad, but it didn't turn out just like I had envisioned! The girls were completely exhausted at this point!
Avery givin' Rynnie a kiss! I think we had a shot like this month's ago, but Korynne looks a she's gotten used to it in this one!
Rylie, "This is for the birds...I'm going to take a nap!!"
Sweet lil' hands..chubby hands that is!
Oh...I had to post this one! Mimi just loved the bonnets! They look like they belong on a box of oatmeal to me!! ;0)
Just the girls!
...again!
...again!!
...and just one more!
Korynnie!
Rynnie again!
...and again with her precious lil' smile!
She is always smiling!!

Korynne!
Here she is sittin' up like a big girl!
TYPICAL pose of Avery! She always does this when she's excited!
Love it!
Our lil' angel!

Here's that "excited" look again!
...and again!
...and back to angel!
Oh...my sweet Rylie!
Always has that tongue out and those arms behind her head! I wanted so much to buy this shot because it is so typical of her!
...instead we got this one!! Still precious...just no tongue!!
What-chew talkin' about man?
...you talkin' to me?
Rylie...crackin' up!!

There is that tongue again! Nannee--Nannee--Boo-Boo (not sure how to spell that, but you got the picture)!
We had a very busy weekend, but so much fun! The picture taking was a success and the dedication was just awesome! Pastor Sal prayed over Bryan and I (along with all the other parents) and it was so special! I wish ya'll could have heard it!! If I can, I might try to download the video so ya'll can see it!!
Oh, and we went to the doctor on Sept. 19th for their 6 month check-up! The doctor says they are still doing great! They are right on target as far as development goes and they are movin' up on the chart as far as size goes! Rylie weighed the most at 15lbs. 12 oz. and Korynne and Avery tied at 15 lbs even! I think Korynne is going to pass Avery up at their 9 month check up!
Well, gotta run! It's getting late!
Much love,
Bryan, Dana, Avery, Rylie, and Korynne

We're 5 1/2 Months Old Now!

...and at the rate Mommy is going, we probably won't have 6 month pics for awhile(I'll try though)!!!
Korynnie jumpin' jumpin'!

Rylie, Avery, and Korynne!

Rylie, Avery, and Korynne!

Pop, "How big is Rylie?"


1st Trip to Mimi and Pop's house!

BELOW: The girls watched their first NASCAR race with Pop!

1st trip to Grammy and Papa's! It was Grammy's birthday!


Checking out all the trees and birdies in the backyard!





Rylie in the mirror!




Avery, "Who is that cute lil' baby?"


Sweet lil' Avery! First time in the exersaucer!




Rylie's first time!


Avery relaxin' on the couch all by herself! What a big girl!

Rylie and Korynne rollin' around!


Pop's birthday...August 24th!

Finally got their hand and footprints for their baby books!
Here is Rylie showin' off her masterpiece!


...and Korynne!

...and Avery!

The girls are gettin' so big! I know I say that all the time, but they are!! They are all three rolling over from back to front now! Avery and Korynne do it ALL the time! In fact, we often find them in their cribs trying to sleep on their tummies! They seem to prefer their tummy most of the time! They can lay on their tummies and push all the way up! There is a picture above were you can see this! Rylie can do it too, but she doesn't seem to care for the tummy quite as much! We usually find Rylie on her side when she's sleepin'!

I bet they'll all be crawling pretty soon! My guess is Avery will lead the pack! She is scootin' pretty good now!

We go for their 6 month pics in a few weeks! I'll have to share how that event comes out when afterwards!! I've been a little hesitant to take them to get their pictures taken professionally, but I HAVE to do it one of these days! I'm sure it will be a circus! Wouldn't you like to be a fly on the wall for that session!

We also have a 6 month check-up pretty soon! I'll be sure and share how much they weigh and how the appointment went!

Blessings to you all!

Love,

The Marquart 5
