9 Months Old

When did nine months go by? He's almost as old as the time I spent pregnant :) It's been an exciting and busy month - School's been out so I've been home with Walker and we've had quite a number of adventures!

• Our Air Conditioner went out, so we spent 6 days with Grandma and Grandpa. We have a brand new HVAC now, just in time to put the house on the market this Spring!
  

• We took a trip up to New Jersey and New York with Deirdre to see Elyzabeth and Al, and Elisa and Ian! Walker was a great car rider. He took his naps right on schedule and we learned that the New Jersey turnpike rest stops are great places to stop to stretch our legs, get fresh air, and eat lunch.

• We flew to Chicago to see Ellen and Pat, and Ben and Jamie. Again, Walker was an excellent flyer! We found his favorite book about animals on the farm and it kept him entertained for the entire hour and a half flight. On the way home, Walker slept sweetly for the last 30 minutes, just like his daddy!

• We drove down to the Outer Banks so as to not miss our annual camping trip at the beach! We took off at 9pm so Walker was fast asleep. It was definitely a different trip this year. Not quite as relaxing, but super fun!
  

• On August 2, Volleyball started up again so Walker went back to Ms. Carmen part time! She missed him so much in July :)
