Carly is 6 months!

Carly is 6 months old! (well almost 7 now) She did great at the doctor's office and loved that paper they sit on. it's easy to hold and makes lots of noise! They were happy with her development and growth, so we don't have to go back until 9 months. Here are her stats:

Weight: 15lbs 13oz (48%), down from 74% from 4m

Height: 25.25 in (32%), down from 57% from 4m

so she's a little more average this time, and we are ok with that!

here's a couple pictures form papa & aunt ginger's visit. somehow papa managed to stay out of the pics - well, so did everyone but carly and aunt ginger!

Camera Broke

so, at caleb's birthday party, my camera broke. for the past couple months, we've only been able to use nathan's phone to take pictures. which is most of the reason there have been no blog posts for that time either. here are some cute ones of us in orange, and obviously we had a little trouble getting carly with her eyes open.




and then, this is what happens when you turn your back on the 3yr old with the baby for second...

Caleb's 3rd Birthday Party

Caleb's birthday party was mostly a success! We ate and the kids played, and caleb got gobbs of fun new toys! we borrowed my brother's bounce house - which of course, was a huge hit! He got a spiderman bike, tools, a tractor, an eric berry jersey, and a nice chunk to add to his college fund! he has no idea how blessed he is to have so many friends and family that love him. Thank you all for making his birthday special for him.

He did, however, play so hard he puked - nice. and then we couldn't get him to sit down to cool off. oh well... it was his party, i guess he could puke if he wanted to! and our dear friend kate decided to try out carly's swing... we also had some fabulous cupcakes: orange / dreamsicle and lemon with green grass icing and chocolate bugs. thank you k-town treats, sorry i can't find the pictures of those... but they were awesome... both to look at and to eat!
