Abby 6 months

Abby had her 6 month appointment today. She has been coughing off and on for about two months but wasnt quite sick enough for us to treat it until it finally developed into pneumonia last weekend, so her stats are kind of off but we are hoping to get her weight back up in the next few months.
weight 13.6 7%
height 26 in 53%
Head 25% She can now roll from front to back and back to front. She is eating rice and LOVES green beans, peas, squash, zuchini, pears, applesauce, bananas and whatever else mom will let her put in her mouth! Just Thursday she started getting up on all fours and rocking back and forth.

She is experimenting with her voice but isnt quite making mama dada sounds yet. Abby loves her siblings and will smile for them at the drop of a hat. She is a really good sleeper and loves her daddy. This past 6 months has gone by so fast I cant wait to see what she has in store for the next 6 months!

You cant handle the TOOTH

After years of waiting, and hoping, and wishing it finally happened. Monday Cassie lost her first tooth after much begging and pleading for me to pull it for her. Tuesday she had something special planned for her next tooth. So when I came to school to help out that afternoon she said mom pull on my tooth. So I just pushed down on it real easy and it popped out! She got to go to the office and get a tooth necklace and when we got home from school that afternoon (4PM) she said mom is it bed time yet? SHe is so funny. The tooth fairy brought her something special for all her efforts, a shiny gold dollar for each tooth.

A new do

I gave him a premature summer haircut, but he was wiggling so much I left it long on top. He had a mohawk for a few days but we cit it Sunday morning before church.

Need a ride?

Ryan to the rescue with his trusty tractor. A ride around the yard will set you back $5. However he is more then willing to cross the street for free (as long as mom isnt looking).

aDOORable!

Now that the weather is warming up the construction has begun again on the house. So we cut out a hole where the door used to be It was quite a dirty job.

Then Jeff and a buddy framed in the door

Then we added the new door. The kids had a blast knocking on the door and going in and out that afternoon. We finished just in time because the weather has turned nasty again and we are back in to the 50's.
