Teagan's 9 Month Stats/Milestones




Teagan had her 9 month dr. visit today. She's growing up so fast, she got to pick a toy from the little basket when we left. She actually fished around and grabbed a pink dinosaur, it was so cute. Her doctor gave her a book with kid's faces in it, which she loves. We have pictures of Ava, Ethan, Cole, Eli, her cousin Kierstin, and some of her friends on our fridge and she loves to look at them and point. She usually points to herself first and says "Oh!"


Here is some info about Teagan at 9 months-


Weight: 18 lbs 3oz


Height: 27.25 inches


Favorite toys: Baby dolls and magnets


Favorite books: Pat the Bunny, Dora the Explorer series, anything with pop ups, anything with cardboard pages so she can turn them while mommy reads


Favorite foods: Peas, spinach, carrots, sweet potatoes, green beans, mac n cheese and colby cheese (not a big fan of fruit but she'll still eat it)



That's all for now. I'm glad to see some new authors and I hope you guys will update us with what's going on in your lives soon. :)

I thought this blog could use some color so I'm experimenting with adding photos. The first one is the most recent one we have of the 3 of us- Jason, Ashley, and Teagan. The second one is of Teagan playing this afternoon while I tidied up and prepped dinner. We had her Uncle Shane (Jason's younger brother) over for dinner because he is getting ready to go back for his junior year of college this weekend. We won't see him again until Thanksgiving! Or maybe homecoming if we can make it...we'll see. :)
P.S. It's really easy to add photos. Once you are signed in and looking at this blog go to "new post" at the top right. Once you open the post area you'll see a place for fonts, colors, alignment, and toward the right is the place to select "add image." I selected "medium" for the size of these photos. Let me know if I need to explain it better.

Links

The easiest way I've found to put "clicky links" in the blog is to actually go to the page you want to add, highlight the link and paste it into the blog.

To Get Started with this Blog

I may be wrong but I think you will have to create a "Google Account" in order to "follow" or post on this blog. That means you will have to go here- https://www.google.com/accounts/NewAccount?service=mail&continue=http%3A%2F%2Fmail.google.com%2Fmail%2Fe-11-1159a00d574b0e78b712c541368b2e74-02aaf8c3b0aa5d447d6856ada6ef105ce45ad523&type=2to get an email address that will allow you to sign in to this blog. Don't worry it's free and I'm pretty sure you just need to remember your username and password in order to "sign in" to our family blog. If any of you who are less computer savvy (not that I am computer savvy) want me to help you set that up, feel free to email me. My email is ashleyrombs at gmail dot com (replace the words with "@" and "."; I just had to do it that way so I won't get a million new junk mails on this account. :)I will add more as I learn more. Stick with us and check the blog regularly, I'm sure we'll all be great bloggers in no time!

Others Blogging

If anyone else in our family knows how to make it so you can all sign in and blog, let me know what to do. I'll try to figure it out and hopefully everyone will be blogging before long. :)

New Family Blog

Hi Family,

I thought it would be a nice idea to create a family blog so we could better keep in touch. I hope each and every one of you will add to our blog. This way we can know what is going on with each person in the family and if we are planning any trips or get togethers this might help us stay organized.

Love you all!!!
