Happy Holidays and Happy New Year!

5 MONTHS TODAY!


Sorry it's been awhile since we've updated our blog! We have had our share of stressful happenings come our way recently. We are back on track now trying to find "just the right" house for us. We are hoping that more houses will come on the market with the new year right around the corner!
K is doing great!! She recently discovered her thumb and her feet! She is still rolling pretty good...when she gets a chance to play on the floor. On her 5 month birthday (today!) she cut her first tooth!!! VERY EXCITING! She seems to be taking the discomfort pretty well for the most part.
Our first Christmas together was great! K was really into tearing into the presents and was wound up for days with her new toys!

She made out quite well for herself! She must have been a good little girl :)

It's amazing to us that she is rolling, sucking her thumb, playing with her toes and teething! Then again I can't believe 5 months ago we were just anxious for her to be born!

Mollers is adjusting well to the moves as well. She made ok on Christmas as well.


We will be celebrating the holidays with our families the next couple of weekends. We wish you and your families a wonderful holiday season! We are looking forward to a new year!

Good News...

First of all, I want to say sorry that there is no photo... we are in transition with our computer :(

However, we did receive an offer on the house and accepted it! We will be closing in Feburary contingent of an inspection, which should be done sometime this week or early next week. We are VERY forunate that our house was only on the market for 45 days. It will be nice to not worry about that over the holidays!
G's company had their Holiday Gala on the 8th at Sand Creek CC and it was wonderful! He works with really outstanding people at his new workplace! Saturday was M's brother's 40th SURPRISE birthday party...what a blast- he had no clue! Good food, good music and of course lots of people to celebrate with!
We found a house that we are very interested in putting an offer in on...we just have to wait to hear back from the sellers agent and try to take a closer look inside! We are keeping our fingers crossed!
Hopefully we'll get some pictures up soon! :)

Happy Turkey Day and More!

On Thanksgiving we went up to great grandma's house! Great grandma gave me a spoon to play with! That was fun until I gagged myself shoving it in a little too far!







After dinner we got a picture with daddy, grandma and great grandma and of course me!

When we went back to Oma's and Opa's we got to visit with Uncle B and Aunt H for a little while. We were all admiring the new remodeled kitchen!



Friday morning M and G got up at 1 am to bargain shop. Then that afternoon K's cousins came over to play and hang out with Molly too!

That evening we went to Uncle G's rehearsal for his big wedding day! At dinner, G and K got together with Grandpa L to say cheese!

The wedding was wonderful and K was a real trooper until she got a little too overtired. The 20 minute naps just didn't cut it after a while. She tried to relax with daddy and fell asleep in record time in her carseat on the way home!


Then to finish off a great weekend K went to see Santa! She told him that she wanted her two front teeth. Santa just smiled and giggled in a way that was not too promising for those two front teeth. Maybe by Valentine's day!

Hum Drum....



Not a whole lot new here! M was in a wedding as a bridesmaid earlier this month in Lafayette, IN. It was a great time to be able to catch up with college friends I haven't seen in a while. K of course was dressed pretty in pink!
We are still waiting for the right people to come through our house and buy it! We found a great house in Crown Point and a few others in CP that we are interested in.
G really enjoys his new job...the people he works with are quite a riot! We are looking forward to their Holiday Gala in early December.
This morning G and M went shopping at 2 am! We are proud to say we got some great deals!
All for now...we'll update with pictures from G's brother's wedding soon!

Fun time at Oma and Opa's!

This week has been one of change! G started his new job and is really enjoying the atmosphere and people he works with...as well as the fact he is home every night to see M and K!
We moved up to NW Indiana and our house is still on the market in Fishers...hopefully the right people will come through soon!
K started with a little cereal in her bottle before bed last night and that was a miracle!! She slept 8 hours straight and then went down for another 3 1/2!!! Ever since her three month growth spurt we had struggled to get her to sleep for more than 2 1/2 - 3 hours at a time, so this was much appreciated advice from Oma!!! Thanks!
This week we will be at M's parents to oversee the remodeling process of their kitchen while they are in Louisville running around like young'ins! Should be interesting!

The whole family...who knew G was a one handed photograher?

One more day!


This week is G's last week working down here in Fishers! Then it's time for packing! We are anxious to be up in The Region! Even more anxious for our house to sell. It's been on the market for two weeks and so far there have been steady showings. We trust that the right people will come through soon. It only takes one buyer right?!?
K definitely went through a growth spurt this past week! She was getting up at night every 1 1/2 to 2 hours to nurse. Thankfully she seems to be back on schedule now. :) That's good for everyone!!
Yesterday we had a few friends over for a small get together before we leave this area. It was good to see our peeps for the last time...for a while anyways.

Also...

I forgot to mention that cousin C stayed the night at Oma & Opa's and helped G watch K while M was out with friends. Lil' C is very excited that she was able to calm K down for G whenever she got fussy!

What a weekend...


Friday M's friend came over and we caught up on old times. K had fun drooling all over and chomping on her hands - which has become a fun past time!
Saturday we went to K's cousin's birthday party. She was dressed in her shirt from Oma and had her pumpkin hat on. Her and daddy were ready for the "Fear Factor" party! We got to see a couple of aunts, uncles and cousins... and announce the good news that we would be relocating up closer to them in a couple of weeks!
Then on Sunday we went to see K's other aunt and uncle and Grandma L. At lunch K thought she would try to pull a fast one and grab aunt C's diamond necklace and try to chomp on that!
We all had a good laugh watching aunt C and K try to play tug of war with the necklace!
K of course was dressed in her Packers gear, and they actually won!!!
Overall, it was a good weekend!

HA HA HA HA


Today was a big day for K. She had her first giggles. Mommy heard it first this morning, but daddy was home to hear it as well at lunchtime. She is continuing to grow before our eyes. Tonight was a big night as she saw her boyfriend for a dinner date. (ooooooo)

Love,

G, M, K

We're Moving...yet again!


G accepted a job in NW Indiana! We are very excited as it means we will be closer to his siblings as well as to M's family. We are very blessed that K will get to grow up living by her cousins, aunts, uncles and grandma and grandpa ( affectionately known as O-ma and O-pa). So if anyone is looking for a great house in beautiful Fishers, IN...we know of one :)
This weekend we are off North to K's first cousins birthday party! Very exciting...it has a spooky theme to it! We will be sure to take plenty of pictures!

Here is a pic of the two Cheeseheads getting ready for another not-so-good Packers game!

So here it goes!


I've created a blog to keep everyone informed on whatever our little family is doing. (Thanks for the idea C!) You can visit this website at anytime and see pictures and updates! Our names will be abbreviated by our first initial so no weirdo comes on and tries to do anything they shouldn't be doing!

So here it goes!

K had her three month pictures taken yesterday! She did great and the preview of the pics look awesome. We should get them on CD in the next few weeks and we will share them with everyone! K also had her two month (although she was 10 1/2 weeks) well- check- up appointment... she is 12.5 lbs (74%) and a little over 24" long (~90%). I'm pretty sure she will be tall like her 6'8" daddy! K was baptised on September 17th. It was a great day with family and friends!
I am staying home taking care of the little tyke! I love it! She is amazing and to be able to watch her grow is a blessing! G and I call her our little Miracle!
G is still working for the engineering consulting firm here in Fishers. Right now he is travelling a lot and we are looking for a solution to that! G and K are quite the football fans! He signed her up for Fantasy Football this year and she is definitely holding her own!
We'll keep you posted on any news that comes our way!
