6 Month Check-Up

Wow...two blogs in two days, pretty special, huh!!

We had Kaitlyn's 6 month check-up today, which I honestly can't believe is already here.  Making her 9 month appointment felt so silly as I don't really believe it is only 3 months away!

Regardless, our little lady is 6 months and here are her stats for those keeping score:

Weight 14lbs 5 oz which puts her in the 15th percentile

Height 25 1/2 inches which is the 26th %

She is doing her own version of crawling, with some actual chest up crawling mixed in.  She is also doing some sort of bear crawl/walk with two hands and feet on the ground.  Food favorites are apples, sweet potatoes and carrots.  Peas are tolerated but much preferred mixed in with the carrots or sweet potatoes.

Catch Up Post and our New House!

I thought it might be an easier way to keep everyone informed of our new house happenings if I re-up the blog!  I suppose I can also update you with pictures of the girls since that was the original intent! :)

As most of you know we sold our house and are living with Derek's parents until our house is finished being built sometime late December/early January.  We are pretty lucky someone wanted to take in the 4 of us for 2 months!

We went out to the house last night and were actually able to walk around inside our own house!  While it is fun to see the model home and walk around in there imaging things in our home...it was even better walking into OUR house!

This is a view of the back...with Derek and Bob:

This week's big excitement is our WINDOWS!  From what I understand the next step will be dry wall...the scaffolding on the side is prepping for that.

The view from the front:

 

Here is a view from the inside...standing in the family room looking into the kitchen.  You can see in the back right corner the pantry.  I liked this view because you can kind of see where the stairs go up for a feeling of the flow of the house.

 

So much excitement, I'll keep you all posted as I get more.  Maybe next time we go out I'll take a video and post it so you can see all of the progress.

 

How about a little added bonus for the first blog back...some pictures of our little angels!

And finally my little 50's girls in their poodle skirts!

 

That is probably long enough of an update for now...don't want to lose you on the first post because it was too long haha!  I will try to keep up on it this time!!
