Six months

-



Well. Here we are. I thought it would be a good idea to keep in touch over this "blog" website. I can put updated pictures and video to share with you all.
I guess I will start with our little Landon who is not so little anymore. He is six months and growing very quickly. He is 28 inches long (90 percentile) and 18 pounds (65 percentile). He is so much fun. He has his two bottom teeth and shows them off almost every second he can. He smiles constantly. Even when he is upset and crying, daddy can always make him smile. He is just starting to "belly laugh" and it's the most beautiful sound I've ever heard. I could listen to him laugh all day long. He is doing well with sitting up and is itching to crawl. He gets frustrated when he can't reach that toy that's right in front of him. We are eating baby food now and he is doing well with that; he's just really picky. He will only eat orange veggies but he loves fruit. I'm sure over time, his taste buds will change. Let's see, what else? He has started saying "mamamamamama", which is nice to hear. But, he's a daddies boy when it comes to fun and playing. They have a special relationship and it's awesome to watch them together.
Chris is working hard with his job. We are trying to get out of Fort Wayne. Chris has a job interview here in the next couple of weeks to work our of Cook in Bloomington. We aren't sure what we want to do yet, but time will tell.
Lily is doing well. I think she knows what she's in for once Landon starts becoming mobile. She keeps her distance and spends most of her time in the sitting room by herself. I think she knows there is soon to be a monster in the house. But every now and then, when she doesn't think anyone is watching, I catch her giving Landon a kiss on the face or just simply sitting next to him on the floor. But as soon as I catch her, she moves and acts like "what, I wasn't doing anything" and goes right back in the sitting room by herself. I don't think she wants me to know that deep down, she loves the little guy.
Well, I think that's all for now. I am getting Landon's pictures done next week, so I will post them up for you to enjoy.
Have a great weekend.

love,
Jennifer

This past weekend was an eventful one. We drove down for Mason's birthday party that was on Saturday. I wasn't feeling too great that morning and got sick, which I hadn't done in a while. I got sick again on the way to the party, then again when we got back to June and Mark's after the party, then again right before we took off back to Fort Wayne. I just couldn't figure out what was going on. From there, I got sick about every ten miles on the interstate as Chris pulled over, no kidding, about 14 times. I got sick a total of 20 times Saturday and late that night decided that it was time to go to the E.R. I was given two liters of fluid and some meds to keep me from throwing up. We were there for about four hours and then headed home. It took me a couple days to recover; I was so sore from getting sick so many times. Anywho...I was to follow up with my doctor. So, today we went to the doctor to make sure everything was alright with the baby after Saturday. Everything...

Alexa Anne is Here!!!!!

Alexa Anne was born at around 6:00 p.m. this evening. After a bit of a scare of not being able to find her heartbeat, some oxygen and a page to my doctor to arrive ASAP, and about 6 or 7 pushes...she was born. She weighs 6 pounds even and is 20.5 inches long. She is so pettite and looks just like Chris and Landon. Go figure...here again, I am the one that labors and carries the babies and Chris gets all the credit. I'm sure she will change a bit in her looks as she has already changed since she was born. I feel great and empowered as I had to do everything I could to get her out quick because her heartrate dropped down to the 40's. VERY scary but thank God I had Mom and Chris in the roomt to get me through. They were great coaches. Enjoy the pictures. I'm going to get off here while Alexa is taking her bath and we soon will go to bed. Thanks for check'n in. We'll update again tomorrow. Oh and how could I possibly forget...Big Brother Landon!!!! How precious it was t...

One more makes a family of four!

That's right. Chris and I found out a few weeks ago that we are expecting our second little one around mid February. We are very excited! There are still a few of you out there that I wish I could tell other than on our blogspot, but this is the best way for me right now. I have been feeling REALLY crummy and I just can't kick the all day morning sickness. I just wish there was something that I could eat or take and it would give me a break. I know it will be worth it, but it's much more difficult being sick and watching after a toddler. Thank goodness I have the most amazing husband in the world that has really taken on both roles as mom and dad and give me a break when I need one. We couldn't be happier with idea of having two. We are really pushing these milestones and Landon is taking them VERY well! Now, if ice cream cured morning sickness...I would be in good shape (well, not physically and then again maybe that's why it doesn't help). Hope you all enjoyed...
