Taking a Break From Packing

So we are moving July 11th! About a week left, and I am keeping myself busy packing. It's kind of fun packing.... exciting to be moving on, and kind of fun to take on the challenge of organizing my time and our stuff well enough that I don't go crazy as I do all this! But right now I'm taking a break and putting up some pictures of our growing family.....

This first picture is how we both feel lately!
Kellen's parents came for a visit and they gave Cole fun stuff to do while mommy caught up on some sleep. I really appreciated it! Where are they now?;)














What Cole's been up to lately.... helping me pack, and climbing on everything to get to whatever he wants. In this case it was the markers! He also had fun one day with my maxi pads, and we went to Amazing Jake's last week where he tried to hit the Hippos. Lately Cole's new word is banana-which sounds like "bnmanama". Very cute. (This is Kellen now) So we were packing stuff in Cole's room and he had boxes all over the place. So one morning we woke up and started getting ready for the day and we heard a light knock on the inside of Cole's door... somehow he got out of his crib and knocked on the door so we would let him out! It was so funny and we still have no idea how he did it without hurting himself.

She's just our sweet little Gracelyn! She's coming out with new cooing sounds now and she's giving us some big smiles. I love it! It makes being a mom....easier. Her cooing and smiles are so rewarding.
