Slacker

So, I'm a blogger slacker. Sorry I haven't posted in forever. I'd like to say it's because things have been crazy lately, but they haven't. I'd also like to say that I forgot about posting, but I didn't. I've thought about updating my blog lots of times, but I just keep putting it off. (Like it's some sort of research paper or something). Yesterday I was looking at a friend's blog that hasn't been updated for a while and I was annoyed (well, not really annoyed...you know what it's like when you wonder how someone is doing so you check their blog 10 times and it's always the same). Then I realized that I had no room to talk because it's been about a month since I've posted. Sorry! Here's an update of our life.

After our accident we were told that we needed to dispose of our carseat and that the insurance company would reimburse us for a new one. So, we upgraded to a Britax. It was pretty expensive, but word has it that we won't be disappointed. We haven't been able to use it yet because it won't fit in the rental car that we have...a Mustang. Yup, that's right, I'm driving a sports car! Nice trade, huh? :) Actually, I'd a hundred times rather drive our Jeep than a Mustang, but it's not too bad. The first time Chris drove it he peeled out until he was through second gear. I could smell the rubber from the tires. He loved it! He also did a 180 after backing out of his parent's driveway the other day. His dad laughed and his mom said he wasn't her son while covering her mouth in disbelief. But they both loved it....not as much as Chris did, though! :) We're having fun with it, but we definately can't wait to get our Jeep back!

Kate is getting sooooo big! She's all smiles now and laughing all the time. She's so much fun! I love being a mother and I'm so glad I am able to stay home with her. There's nothing in the world I'd rather do. She's learning how to pull herself up now, but she seems to think that only Mommy or Daddy's hands will work. She hasn't tried to pull herself up on any toys or in her crib yet. In fact, for some reason, she doesn't roll over, or even try to, when she's in her crib. She just lays there on her back either sleeping, crying, or playing. Also, she's always hated tummy time, but in the past few days she's started to scoot around. I think she's starting to realize that crawling is her ticket to freedom and if she could just get up on her hands and knees, she'd be gone! I'm just enjoying my last few days (hopefully weeks) of peace before my child goes mobile on me.



Isn't she cute?! Gotta love that smile!
