Catching Up

Is it August 30th already!? Time has just flown here at our household. The past couple months has brought a flurry of activity...including putting our house on the market and finding a new one. Jason and I got to talking that come Christmas time 'wouldn't it be nice if...' we were in a new house, in a new neighborhood, we had enough room for family to come and visit and not sit on top of each other... and the ball began rolling from there. The deck stairs were finished, the front door was fixed, the whole house received a fresh coat of paint, and the projects continued. Needless to say our house is on the market and we have both found and made an offer on another house. The offer - accepted! The catch is that we have to sell ours before the deal is final.

Keira is totally looking forward to her birthday coming up in October. We recently attended another friends party who turned 3 and she is SO ready for hers. If you ask her when her birthday is she'll enthusiastically reply that it is "2 months. How old will you be? 3!!! How old are you now? 2!! " She has the finger motions down as well. The real treat is when you ask her what she would like for her birthday :)

Kanaan is 5 mo.! He can roll from belly to back and just recently (like last week) rolled from his back to his belly. He has become quite a vocal one too! Loves sticking his tongue out and making this throat, tongue, scream sort of thing. Very fun for big sis to try and mimic. Our mornings are far from quiet around here.

Summer has brought some traveling to OH in the beginning of August to see my Uncle from WA and his wife and 6 kids! It was great catching up with the Bowser side of the family, playing corn hole and even taking a trip to the water park. For Labor Day the kids and I will head to IL to see my Dad's new place.

Here's some random pix throughout the summer...
