Our little Molly is 6 months! Life has been rather crazy
lately. So crazy that I realized I left a couple of things out of last month’s
post! I forgot to mention that we had started oatmeal, which went pretty well.
We also finally got the disk with the kids’ pictures from school. The pictures
were taken back in April but we finally got the disks in June.
Our sweet babies!
July was a busy month for us. We attended our niece’s 4th
birthday party, my office moved, we got our house listed and Molly was
baptized. Alex had a blast at Cecelia’s party. It was so much fun to watch him
play with the girls and in the little pool Rachel had set up. He had so much
fun that we are getting him one for his birthday!

Molly is changing so quickly. It is so fun to watch her and
to see how different she is from Alex. I am so lucky that they are both very
happy. She loves clapping her hands and she is sitting up really well. She gets
on her hands and her knees some but she has not done more than move just her
arms or just her legs. She also rocks some while on her hands and knees so it
might not be long before she is crawling. I’m not sure I’m ready for her to
really be on the go!
Towards the end of the month we got our house on the market.
We haven’t had a lot of activity yet but we are hopeful. We know the 2 or 3
areas we are interested in, so now we are just waiting for something to happen
with our house. I try to not look online at homes that are for sale but it is
hard. I know that is available now most likely will not be available when we
are ready. Our top areas are Gleannloch and The Woodlands. Gleannloch would
allow us to keep the kids at their current daycare and doctors office which is
a plus but I think The Woodlands has more of what we are looking for. We want
an area where there are parks, ponds for fishing and kayaking, walking trails,
splash pads ect. Gleannloch offers those things but The Woodlands offers a lot
more. It appears that it wouldn’t change my drive to work much and I would
think it would help a lot when construction really gets going on 290.
On July 28th Molly was baptized. My parents were
able to come down for the weekend! I was so happy when I found out that my dad
would not be on call. After her baptism, everyone came back to our house for
hot dogs, cake and fun. I love it when our house is full of people who love and
support us. It means so much to us to have people come and celebrate events in
our lives with us. Thank you to those who came to see our precious girl be
baptized!

My mom brought stickers and cars to help keep Alex quiet. He did really well!

Our family! We had a hard time getting both kids to look at the camera!
6 months old! She didn't want to look at the camera!
She didn't want to smile either!
Happy 6 months Molly!
