Catch up

I'll play a little catch up here for a bit. First, Scott was finally able to get a replacement for his Ketchum job. He was finally down to one job by the end of October. Scott got a call from someone he worked with in Boise during his rotations asking about the job. So he talked to the guy for a while and soon set up a time for the guy to head up to Ketchum to see and talk to Ken. So, he saw Ken and signed a contract the same day. We were elated. 

The girls are growing up so fast. Catie is now 2 years and 10 months old. She is crazy fun, so creative and full of imagination. She comes up with these crazy words, for example she says "77 k pap" all the time. I have no idea what it means or where she came up with it. She really likes to quote movies, her favorite right now is the 4th Ice Age movie, she likes to say, "where's my booty?" a lot. She will also quote large sections of other movies as well like Mulan and Beauty and the Beast. She has a crazy good memory. The other day she put on my hat, looked at me and said, "Mommy I look like you, and that's cute." She also is really into singing. She sings Part of Your World all the time. She knows almost all the words. I love it! She also sings I Am A Child Of God, Popcorn Popping, Jingle Bells, and the ABC's. She is adventurous, loving, and so much fun!

Kiana is growing like a weed. She is now 7 months old and so smart! She rolls over, from front to back. She is almost crawling, she moves but she isn't up on her knees yet. Tonight she was trying to get her knees underneath her but not quite making it. Tonight she also drank out of a straw for the first time. I was sitting at the table feeding her cereal and she was coughing so, I was giving her some water. I just decide that she seemed like she was trying to suck the water up so I put the straw in the water and gave it to her and after a few tries she had it figured out. She is currently trying to feed herself, if the piece of food is large she can get it in her mouth but, if it is small she can't get the coordination to get it in her mouth. She loves eating though, anything she can get her hands on she will put in her mouth. Just a few days ago she cut 2 teeth. Her very first teeth. The bottom front 2 teeth are just barely cutting through. She is a happy and loving little girl. I love her bubbly, happy personality.

Scott is enjoying only working one job. The hours fluctuate but, we do alright. He has almost all weekends off, and we are very grateful for that. He is looking forward to a weekend in Vegas coming up at the end of the month. He is headed down there to watch Rugby with my Dad and Brother-In-Law. He loves going to the tournament every year. 

I am doing well, not much new here for me. I love my family and my house. I'm grateful to be able to stay home with my wonderful girls. I need to get better at housework and such but, I'm working on it.
