It's almost June!

I cannot believe how quickly this past month has passed! After all of our trials & tribulations with Jerred's injury, I managed to come down with pneumonia in May, so I thought for sure the month would drag on and on but here it is almost June already! I'm slowly starting to feel better, just wishing the night time coughing spells would go away already!

That means it's almost time for Ben's 9 month appointment - I cannot believe we have a 9 month old!!! It's crazy how fast they grow!

He still only has the 1 little tooth, but he's growing like a weed!! Rolling everywhere, starting to push himself backward in a crawl-type motion, so hopefully full-on crawling will happen soon. He loves to practice standing up and playing the drums on our ottomans in the living room!!

Everything else is going well - Jerred is down to one physical therapy session a week starting next week, so that was great news to learn today! We are both still working at Thomson Reuters, car pooling when we can!

We took Ben to the cabin for the first time over Memorial Day weekend and he had a good time I think- a little out of sorts being away from home and off his normal schedule, but he seems back to himself today (although fighting a low grade fever -- another tooth finally???).

Here are some pictures from the past few weeks!!! Hope this post finds everyone well!!!

The Blog - REVIVED!

I have absolutely no idea if anyone reads this any more since, well, we got lazy... Ok, since I got lazy since Jerred doesn't do this stuff!

But - life with an infant has been keeping us very busy -- Ben is now almost 8 months old and is just such an amazing bundle of joy! He smiles and laughs ALL the time, is rolling around the floor like crazy, and is beginning to try and figure out how to get up on all fours to crawl! I'm sure it will be another month or 2 before gets the hang of it, but he's doing great!

Next doc appointment is not until June so no idea how big he really is (I'd estimate his weight at around 19-20 lbs) - but he's grown a lot in length the past month or so!!

A picture or two for everyone -- Ben having fun in the kiddie swing at the park down the block and playing around the house!

House is coming along - hoping to take some pictures tonight and this weekend. All that's left are the floors, vent covers, closet hardware, and changing the outlets - so once the floors are dry the other things can be done in a day! Then we can move in ~ moving date is 10/25 - finally!!! YAY!!!
