July 17th!

We welcome to the world our 3rd nephew, Drew Ryan Mitchell. He came to us on a special day, mine and Justin's 6th wedding anniversary. He was born at 1:56 pm, weighed 6 lbs. 15 oz. and 20'' long. The delivery went very fast, and my sister-in-law and nephew are doing great.

Biggest big brother, Avery. What is Lily gonna do with all these boys?!
Her future boyfriends better watch out.

Later that evening, Justin and I went to celebrate our anniversary at the Old Hickory Steakhouse at the Gaylord hotel, like we do every year. It was yummy!

9 months and crawling!

Lily is growing more and more everyday, and it is so amazing. She is now crawling all over the place, which is cute but creates more of a challenge for mom :) At her well check, she was 16 lb. 13oz. and 26'' long. She's still under the 20th percentile, but she is proportionate and growing great. She's a great eater and seems to learn something new everyday.

Unfortunately, the videos are not working which is so annoying, but I'll upload as soon as I can.

This week my sister and niece came to visit us, and Lily and Alina have had so much fun together. They entertain each other so well and it is cute to watch Alina try to take care of the "baby". I think she'd make a great older sister! We will miss them!

On the farm

Lily and I, along with some friends, visited a peach orchard near our house. It was a cute little farm called Henrietta Orchards (i think), run by an older couple who also have apples and pumpkins in the fall. We had fun picking our own peaches, and they're cheaper than the store. The only downside was it was soo hot!
