We had a great time at the rodeo this weekend. Caroline went on her first roller coaster. I don't think I've ever been so mad at Keith for letting her go all by herself. LOL! All in all she loved it and said "I wanna go again" after it was over and then she was pretty much grumpy the rest of the time. Why do we even do fun things? ;) Will decided to have a blow out diaper so that was lots of fun too! You can click on the pics to see them larger.

 

9 months!

Will is already 9 1/2 months! He's been crawling now for about a month. For the past month Keith and I have been asking ourselves, "when is he going to crawl." I think we finally came to the conclusion that he is crawling. Let's just say it's a very abnormal crawl and it cracks us up. He crawls with one leg and sort of uses the other one to scoot everywhere. He can pretty much go wherever he wants in the a room. He's also been pulling up on all the furniture.

At his latest 9 month well check he is measuring 75% on weight and his height is over 100%. His pedi can't believe how tall he is. I said "honey, have you seen my dad?" 6'7" is definitely in his genes! I've had a few people ask me if he's walking yet and I'm thinking in my head "he's only 9 months, are you kidding?" but I guess the reality is that he really looks like a 1yr old.

Will is pretty much eating everything. People always told me that boys do better with veggies and this is definitely holding true. He likes green beans, peas, squash, you name it. I've started to give him more table foods like chicken, pasta, or what we are having for dinner. The kid loves food! He fits in great with our family!

The house is moving along quickly! The windows and roof are on. We'll be heading to Dallas this month for our pre-drywall meeting and then the inside construction will begin (the best part)!




Spring break is this week and we are staying very busy. Caroline is the flower girl in a wedding this weekend. Her dress is apple green with a fuchsia sash. I'm sure I'll be running around like a crazy lady trying to get everything ready. I'm so thankful for my friend Nicole who is making Caroline a last minute fuchsia colored hair bow! Stay tuned for spring break pics...

Second story framing is complete! Windows and roof go in this week!

Here are some pics of the framing of the first floor. Keith's parents drove by and said there were at least 8 workers out on Saturday.
