It's been a long time.....

A lot has happened since my last post.
We finally moved into our house a few weeks ago. It was a lovely 114 degrees outside. What were we thinking!!! It was miserable, but worth it. We are unpacked, but there is still lots of

work to do. But, it takes time and money.

This is our living room before....

And this is after...

We still need to decorate and decide on more painting, but it is a huge improvement.

We did something we never thought we would do....Bought a mini-van.

It's a 2005 Toyota Sienna. We LOVE it. There is so much room. And it so much more practical than my Corolla. I do miss my Corolla, but the Sienna suits our family much better.

I'm really late, but Spencer had his 6 month check up. He was 16 lbs 7 oz and 28 1/4 inches long. The doctor said he looked good. But, we decided to have a kidney ultrasound done on him to make sure he doesn't have any kidney issues. He was born with tiny holes on his ears, which can sometimes be associated with some sort of kidney problem. There are not any symptoms this early in life, so we wanted to check and see. The doctor said most of the time they are perfectly fine. We went on Friday and are waiting for the results.

He was so good. He helped hold the cord. He is just growing too fast. He is sitting and crawling. And he has two tiny teeth.

Emma has had fun swimming this summer. Here she is at Grandma Jeanne's house. She talks so much now. And she is so funny.

We attempted a family picture. It sure is hard to get everyone looking good.

Just some random pictures
