Mover and a Shaker

Last week or so seems to be a blur and we had big things happening.  Here are just a few highlights. 

OSU beast OU!!!!  Holy cow!  The look on their faces says it all!


  Adelee is shocked and Riley is not happy! (we are a house divided)


Here are the post game faces...

Riley looks like he might cry!  Adelee looks thrilled.
(not sure what is wrong with blogger, but it keeps messing up the color when I load Riley's pic)



Jay is changing jobs and so we are moving again.  I have known this for a while now but just haven't said anything. He left on Thursday for Colorado and I will meet up with him at Christmas.  I have mixed feelings about this move, just as I did when moving here.  I am going to miss my family more than anything in this world!  I am NOT going to miss the heat of the Oklahoma summers!  I just wish we could all live on a big compound together.  Kind of like on the show Dallas.  Problem solved :)  Let us all say one big prayer that this house sells. 

We had about one million appointments to fit into 4 days.  With our insurance changing we needed to get appts out of the way since we had met our deductible for the year.  One of which was Adelee's appointment with the hematology people.  Basically Dr. Kirkpatrick said he doesn't think it is anything that worrying...he THINKS.  The way the state reports the results is it says that her hemoglobin "could" have the Thalassemia trait.  We had to do more blood tests and this time it was a blood draw and not just a heel stick.  First of all I want to give props to the chick doing the draw, she was great & that job takes a brave one to stick babies all day.  I also have to say that I don't ever want to see that again even though Adelee was a champ.  I knew from the day she was born she was going to be a rockstar :)  Once they get the labs back the Dr. will be able to tell us where/what the problem is with her blood.  So basically more waiting.  Ugh! 

And last but not least Adelee started crawling last week.  My world is over as I know it for sure.  This crawl she does is pretty funny. She can get her belly off the ground but she prefers not to, so we have an army type crawl.  She is pretty fast and knows where she wants to go.  Crawling before she was 6 months old...  Lord help me!

Houston we have a sitter...

 Well for about 5 seconds anyway!  Still very exciting.  I am terrible at keeping up with baby books, but will randomly write things down.  When Adelee learned her new trick I grabbed Riley's baby book to see when he started sitting.  Guess what???  I DIDN'T write it down, imagine that.  I instantly became obsessed with figuring it out, finally I found a picture I took at the end of October.  Riley was 6.5 months when he could sit.  Adelee is 5.5 months, but Riley was early and with his adjusted age I think they are right on track with each other.  It is fun to see how they develop differently in some areas and just the same in others.  Thinking back on when Riley did this or that also makes me very sad that he isn't a baby anymore.  Where did the time go?
