Movin' on Up

To the East side- of the neighborhood. So we are officially no longer homeowners. We accepted an offer on our home, and 9 days later we are closed and moved out. (Of course that week included Spring Break for 5 days, an 8th birthday, medical consultations, and lots of phone calls and packing.) It has been a crazy, stressful, and exhausting week, but we made it! We are currently abiding in a rental until we can find a suitable home to purchase. We have the same home phone number which will be hooked back up in a few days. We are anxious to start the search for our "real" house and hope to make that move in the next few months.

Ryan- 6 months


Ryan turned 6 months old a few weeks ago. Here are the stats from his doctor's appointment:


Height- 27 inches (69 %tile)


Weight- 17 lbs. 2 oz. (41 %tile)


Head Circumference- 16.5 inches (8 %tile)


Ryan is the most happy baby I have ever had. He really is a great baby. Still a good night sleeper and getting better at his nap taking. In the last month he has learned to roll from back to front. In the last few days he has become a rolling champion. He will roll both ways and can maneuver to reach toys on his tummy. He has been introduced to rice cereal. He is slowly tolerating it. He likes to blow raspberries right when I get a full spoon up to his mouth, thereby making a lovely mess of himself and me. He is enjoying playing in the bouncy car. He is very smiley, and loves to giggle especially for his older brother Ethan. I can tell that he wants to be bigger than he is. I think that he will be an early mover, crawler, walker so he can keep up with everyone else. Trying out the highchair for the first time. 3-30-2011
