So my last update started with, wow it's been a long time since I've blogged. Yet, again it's been a long time since I've blogged!! Clearly writing isn't my strength, but I'll try....
We officially moved into the new house over Mother's Day, and what a great gift that was!! Everything was painted, and somewhat put together, and now I can say we are even closer, I think there's only 10 boxes to unpack, not counting the pictures that still need to be put up! Katie is settling in very well, and loves her new purple room. She should, it has two closets! What more could a girl want!! We have been blessed with really nice neighbors, and the kids love to play together. They are a bit older than Katie, but do a great job including her in what they are doing. This is the first time we have ever been responsible for a yard, and am very blessed to have a mom who helps keep up with the weeding!!! We are in a great location, and have been spending much more time at the parks, which Katie loves, and calls them "play parks". JJ also has been working on many projects. He built me some awesome shelves in my walk in closet, and pull out drawers in the pantry. I think now his next project is a bench seat for the foyer. It's something he really enjoys, and now that we have a two car garage he has more space. Although come winter time, my car is going in the garage!!
It's so hard to believe it's all ready July!!! JJ's sister, Patti got married over Memorial Day,and we all made a trip to Cleveland. All the nieces wore the same dress, and looked so cute!!! Katie was the flower girl, and miraculously made it down the aisle. Thankfully, it was a short aisle, and she ran down without tripping!!! Everyone had so much fun, and loved dancing!! I will post some pictures, when I figure out where the camera cord is:) I'm a bit slow in the IT department!
What else.....we have really just been enjoying the summer. Katie has been doing great, and is talking a ton! I think we may have to stop her speech therapist from coming...I'm sure you are all shocked that my child is a talker:) She has recovered very well from her hip surgery and we don't follow up with ortho until September. She does have to have her eartubes replaced at the end of the month, and they will also repeat another brain MRI at that time. Thankfully they can do it at one time, with one dose of anesthesia. We don't go up to Boston Children's again until December.
I'll try to post some recent pictures soon!!!
