Movin' and Shakin'

It has been WAY too long.

In some ways it seems like nothing has happened in the past month…and in others our entire world has changed.

Let's start with the biggest changes…We bought a townhome!  Yep, we can't believe it either, but we did and we moved in last weekend.  We could not be happier.  Seriously, we feel SO blest…like we won that mega-million lotto.  Actually, we feel poor, so we definitely don't feel like we won the lotto…but we LOVE our new home!




It's just about a mile away from our apartment in an amazing neighborhood called Magnolia.  We jumped on the opportunity because of the location, and I'm so glad we did!  We now have an official guest room & bathroom so we're ready for visitors!

Rory has been adjusting quite well, though he's been exhausted!  We feel his pain. 

Speaking of our little guy…he is doing great!  I've found a source of cheap OshKosh overalls and now I'm hooked!  There is nothing cuter than Rory in small overalls.  Nothing.


There are definitely signs that teeth are coming (in fact if you lift up his lips you can see the whole front row sitting underneath his gums.  It's kind of disgusting actually.  For some reason I had this fantasy that teeth just appeared…not that they were under your gums the whole time!)  Anyways, one day we're hoping to see them come down out of his gums.  :)

He's well into his 6th months of life and will celebrate his first half birthday when we are in St. Louis for a quick weekend visit with Grandmas!  Unfortunately, we're leaving dad behind for some good relaxin'.  

Rory is happy and laid back most of the time.  When he wants something (food, love, clean pants) he will not hesitate to let you know….but once you satisfy him, he's back to his happy self!  We actually have grown to appreciate his communication skills.

He has officially rolled over 5 times…but hasn't done so in about 3 weeks.  He's a stubborn fellow.

Anyways, pictures are more fun...



He LOVES bathtime!  He kicks like it's his business!  Lucky of him, i signed him up for swim lessons in May!



When he's not kicking he's trying to bounce or scoot!



He and Fin are becoming really good friends!  They even go clothes shopping together!



Rory is so excited to be able to sit in his own highchair!



I'm a little worried about the french kisses he's been giving me lately...especially with eyes like those!



He has some great bed head and is a fabulous snuggler!



He loves his Mr. Monkey...we might have forced the issue.  And here's those great communication skills.



He's currently enjoying some Grandma Rosey and Grumpy love!



But long story short...he's one cool dude!

We love and miss you all!
