Growing too fast
Holy cow! Travis almost army crawled off my bed today! Ok so it was a modified army crawl; he pushes up with his feet tucked under his tummy and then thrusts forward till his little arms are under him. Then he pushes back up and repeats. Can someone tell him that he is only four months and he needs to slow down!!! If he is going to be my last he needs to take things a little slower!
OOPS
Wow, I haven't posted in a while! That is exactly why I didn't think I could do this! So I have been utterly obsessed with the Olympics and life is just getting in the way of it ;). Beyond that I have some awesome news... I finally (after over a year of searching) bought a minivan. It is a 2006 with low miles and VERY clean. I LOVE IT. My babies have air blowing on them to keep them cool so I am happy. When I told my dad I had great news he asked if I was pregnant... how exactly would that have been good news???? I have two kids under two, does it sound like more fun to have three under three? ha ha.
Even better news, I took Travis to the doctor and he is still perfectly healthy and HUGE. He is four months and weighs 16.5 pounds and is 26 inches long. This is my first real sized baby! The girls were still miniatures at this point. Heck Heidi was just over this at her first birthday! But then again he has been my healthiest, so I will go with it! Oh, and since he was losing his newborn hair we shaved his head yesterday, leaving just enough for a mohawk :)
In the last few weeks I have been doing TONS of crafts including making sock monkeys and tote bags and wipes, knitting scarves and whatever else I can think of. My goal this year is to do a home-made Christmas, but with all items people want or need. It would be so much easier to just give everyone easy stuff, like a pillowcase :)
Heidi started school again. 2nd grade already, she is loving her class, and for the first time I am happier with her school. I am very involved on the PTO again this year and am starting the year feeling burned out, but I hope momentum will build soon. If anyone wants to save their box tops from their general mills products you are more than welcome to send them to us to support our school.
A funny story... A little over a week ago we had Travis doing tummy time and all of the sudden Julie decides she can ride on him. We got her off of him, but then she got back on, and I decided I had to have a picture. It was so funny. Thankfully she hasn't done it again.
