Time to get caught up on some pictures. We'll start with the most recent. Annika is 8 1/2 months already! I can't believe it! She is such a happy girl and is getting so big. I was getting a little nervous seeing this coolor weather coming because I didn't have many warm outfits for Annika and all her 6 month clothes were getting too small. She's a tall girl so her pants were turning into capris and her shirts were having a hard time getting over her head. Well, we don't have much extra money to be buying clothes right now so I wasn't sure what I was going to do. Adam mentioned something to his sister, Jeanna, who picked up several cute, warm outfits for her (the one in the pictures is one of them). She also spread the word and several more cute outfits were given to us, many that will get us thru next summer as well . Another family picked up a bag from a yard sale of lots of cute outfits. So many kind, generous people have helped our baby be able to stay warm this winter. Thank you everyone! Also, a friend mentioned to me about a "Peace Love Swap" that happens every two months. This particular one is held in Grass Valley, so I went to go check it out. It's such a wonderful idea. You bring baby or childrens items that you no longer need and swap out for some that you need. I went with two bags of baby clothes I didn't need anymore and walked out with two bags full of several cute outfits for Annika, including several cute church dresses. I also found several shirts for Nolan, who's been growing. I was so happy! I am no longer nervous. :)
