Look what I got :)

I got the Phil & Ted sport double stroller today I have been wanting forever! Found it on Craigslist saved a few hundred dollars and my wonderful dad picked it up for me this evening, the sellers lived a few miles from his work. My goal was to have it before our vacation to Phoenix in November and I got it! YAY so happy!

Good news/ bad news

On Tuesday before Livi went down for her nap she kept saying 'I got the good news, I got the bad news' not sure where she got it from but it was so funny she kept saying it. I captured her on tape and wanted to share it.

double the play dates

On Monday morning the kids and I met up with my friend, Bree and her son Dylan. We got coffee at a little shop downtown then took the kids to the park where they ran wild for a while. We got home I fed Livi lunch and my friend, Rebecca stopped by with her girl's, Bella and Rosalee. Livi was exhausted come nap time from all the playing.

6 months

<~ This little boy is growing up way to fast! Since we didn't have Internet last week when Gidian turned half a year old I wasn't able to update his monthly photo and let you all know what he's up to. So here it is a week late.

*Still in size 3 diapers

* Wears 9-12 month size clothing even some 18 month shirts fit him

* Sleeps 10 hours straight at night. I'm sure he'd sleep more if his sister didn't come barging into the room every morning waking him up.

* He is sitting up unassisted for short periods of time

* Army crawling everywhere!

* No teeth yet but his pediatrician said they're getting close to breaking through.

*Enjoys baby food, his favorites are pears and applesauce. Not a big fan of veggies but mommy makes him eat them :)

All settled

Only a few more boxes to unpack and we'll be done! This has been a long week to say the least. We are loving the new house! It's so big compared to our old one and I love the one level no stairs woo hoo. Our last house the floor plan wasn't set up very good for entertaining so we never really had tons of people over at one time. So tonight I had my parent's and sister over for dinner. I made a lasagna for everyone. Plus it is Grandparent's day today so what better way to celebrate.

She loves to pose for photos lately

6 month check up

Gidian at his 6 month check up

I have a few minutes to kill before Comcast calls me back to get our cable/Internet/phone all figured out for the new house. So I thought I'd update everyone on Gidian's 6 month appt he had this morning since I have Internet access at my parent's house.

6 month stats
Weight 20 lbs 4 oz (75-90th percentile)
Length 27 1/2" (75-90th percentile)
Head circumference 17" (90th percentile)

Gidian had to get his blood drawn to check his iron levels. I thought he would freak out when getting poked but he didn't just kept looking to see what the nurse was doing. Got another round of vaccines and given a good clean bill of health. We had to get him a prescription for fluoride drops since Buckley water doesn't have fluoride in it. I took a few photos of Ian at his appt but wont be able to put them on until my Internet gets hooked up on Saturday. Hope you all have a wonderful week!

Moving day

Sorry I haven't updated in a while I've been so busy packing and getting ready to move. Tomorrow is the big day we're loading up the moving truck and moving. Can't wait to get out of this house! We'll be without Internet for a while until we can get Comcast out to hook it up. Hope you all have a wonderful Labor Day weekend!
