Whoosh…
“Whoosh” is how I feel the year is passing by. It’s looking like another busy year with lots to do and many changes happening. Izzy just has her two year check up. She’s 33 inches tall (80 percentile) and 25 pounds (40 percentile). Overall, she’s growing up a tall, lean, healthy girl!
Her personality comes out more everyday. We’ve now realized that Izzy’s kind of an introvert around big groups of kids and kids she doesn’t know. At “school” she feels most comfortable hanging out by herself and observing the other kids. If there are only one or two other kids, she’ll start to play with them after a time of observation. At home, it’s a completely different story. She has to be wherever mama or dada are and one of us has to be watching her play or playing with her. That makes it a little difficult to get anything done around the house during the week, but I enjoy hanging out with her.
I am now almost 6 months into my pregnancy and really starting to POP. Our little girl is moving and kicking all night long and jumping on my bladder. That makes it hard to get a full night’s rest. I’m also still trying to get over a cough and congestion that has lingered on for weeks. I’ll be glad when my immune system picks up again and I can feel completely healthy again.
We’re working on transforming our upstairs guest room into Izzy’s big girl room. Paint is on the wall, towels and rugs are in the bathroom, now we’re just waiting on furniture to come in and hopefully it will come together quickly. We also plan on finishing off our basement soon so that construction will be complete before our baby girl comes.
This month we’re also finalizing a contract and construction order for our new office space we are purchasing. Seven people in a 225 square foot home office was getting a little crowded. Our new space is close to 1400 square feet and a huge improvement from our home office. Unfortunately with the move of our office it means Izzy and I won’t be seeing Luke as often during the day, but overall it will be a good move.
Michelle finally sent me copies of her pictures she took while we were in California in September. Here are some of my favorites.

Great pictures! I am glad to hear that things are going good for you guys!
Yes, Izzy likes to be the center of attention. But–she’s such an interesting little character, how can one not want to focus on her? What a
“sweety pie”!
