Abbi is 7 months old today




My favorite things to do these days are roll around to get where ever I need to get to, pull my brothers hair when they make me mad, smile, eat stage 2 baby food and lots of it and take good napes for my mommy while she is packing up our house!

25 days and counting

Abbi now has 4 teeth. She is growing up so fast. I am loving having her home with me during the day.
This pretty much sums up how busy we have been the last few weeks. I can't wait until we don't have something going on everyday.




Darren has now offically walked but is not done quite yet. He has a few weeks to go. We had a lot of fun at our party this past weekend. We are hoping to see everyone before we leave but the days of being WI residents are winding down quickly.

Mothers Day, The Dells and busy busy busy











We had a very busy weekend this past weekend. On Friday I had the last day of our garage sale. We got rid of a lot but still have a garage full of stuff. On Saturday we celebrated Mothers Day with Darren's family. It is so fun to watch Abbi and Melanie together. I hope that as they grow up they will be good friends. On Sunday Darren took me and the kids out to breakfast with my dad and grandma. Darren got me a very pretty jewlery box for Mothers Day and the kids mad the cutest gifts at daycare. Later in Sunday we left for the Dells. We stayed at Great Wolf and the kids had a blast. Today Logan had his follow up appointment from his surgery and everything looks great. On Friday we have Darren's Commencment Ceremony. We are all very excited for this. He has worked so hard. He offically can't do his final defense until August becasue a member of his commitee that he has to defend to is out of the country. But he has about a week to two weeks of testing left and he will be done. We are very proud of him!!! We look forward

Abbi


Abbi weighed in at at 19 lbs 12 ozs and is 27.5 inches long. That means a couple of things, she is only 6 inches shorter than Logan!, she is in the 98 percentile for weight and 88 perctentile for height. The doctor thinks she is going to be a tall girl (just like Aunt Kelly). The doctor commented on how happy of a baby she is. Abbi was giggling away at him during her whole visit and even after she got shots within a minutes she was smiling away at the nurse. Here is a picture of her and a couple videos for you to enjoy!

Busy, Busy, Busy







We are staying very busy these days. I am learning very well on how to live on a couple hours of sleep a night. Darren has been very busy getting things ready to finish up school. He stayed home with us on Saturday and we had a great day. We played outside with the kids all day and man did they sleep well that night!
Abbi has her six month appointment in the morning. Darren and I are guessing she is over 20 pounds. She is our little chunk. She is starting to crawl these days. She can't make it to far but one of these days she is going to take off!
Logan is doing awsome. We are so glad we had his surgery done. He is already speaking so much clearer and saying a ton of words. The doctor said because he had some hearing loss we still may have to have him work with a speech therapsit at some point but we are just going to wait and see how he does.
Jaydon is also doing great. He is loving the fact that he can play outside again. He has learned how to ride his bike and we can't seem to get him to ever want to come inside these days.
Everything is set for North Carolina. We are leaving June 21st and driving straight through thanks to some help from Uncle Ryan and Uncle Danny. Along with those two, myself, Jaydon and Darren we are hoping to arrive sometime late on the 22nd. Kelly and my mom will be flying down with the kids later in the week. Our house here is slowly getting packed but things are coming along.
Well that is about it for now. I attached some new pictures of the kids from this weekend.
