funny video

The following video is both completely hilarious AND self-explainatory. So just watch it.

And in other news...

Minnette is nine months old, (as of a week ago) and so we have some Dr.'s appointment stats to share with you:

Weight: 22 lbs. 12 oz. 95th Percentile

Height: 28 1/2 in. 76th Percentile

Head: 45 cm (17 3/4 in.) 78th Percentile

AND...

We have an ultrasound appointment on Monday to find out if we are cooking a boy or girl this time around! So cross your fingers that baby won't be hiding the goods from us! BOY or GIRL- What do you think???

Happy Mother's Day!

What I love about my Mom:
•She is the happiest person I know.
•She has such an enthusiastic personality.
•She makes friends with EVERYONE (including the grocery store cashier. Oh- and everyone else that was in line, too!)
•She is so gorgeous!
•She is the most organized person I know.
•She's EXTREMELY artistic and crafty... she can do EVERYTHING!
•One of her favorite snacks is powdered doughnuts and chocolate milk... YUMMY!
•Consistency. What hair-dye does she use? Preference by Loreal 9 1/2 NB. What does she order at Outback? The prime rib with a side of Au Jus and Shrooms and a ceaser salad. Enough said! :)
•Her long blond hair!
•She likes to shop at Ross.
•She helps me complete my craft projects.
•She loves to TALK. A Murphy girl family trait I think!
•She's read Twilight, Harry Potter and Hunger Games.
•I hated... and I mean HATED cleaning my room when I was a teenager, and she would just sit in my room and talk with me and help me until it was clean!
•She has a good comination of brutal honesty (which I actually find hilarious... Katie:"Hey Mom, how does my outfit look?" Mom: "I like those pants, but that shirt looks terrible!") and complete and total support for me... which I really need! I don't want to walk out of the house looking like an idiot, but sometimes I just want someone to agree with me when I need to vent!
•She is generally such a happy-go-lucky person, it's kind of hilarious to see her get mad!
•When she finds a new hobby... it is all or nothing. She tends to go ALL-OUT for everything that she does.
•She loves shoes.
•She LOVES my Dad. A LOT.
•She loves to travel.
•She loves to go out to eat with me (not that we get to do THAT much lately)
•She love, love, loves her grandbabies!
•What does she say anytime we leave her presence? "Be good, have fun, learn lots, remember who you are, remember we love you!"
•She always takes the chance to make me feel loved!
Obviously, the above list is not all inclusive, but you get the point...
I LOVE YOU, MOM! HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!!

Chillin'

Minnette did this by herself for both of these pictures. While in the middle of playing she decided it was time for a break! Minnette loves to relax with Mommy and Daddy!





And this is a completely random video that I thought was really cute. The things babies are fascinated by!
