between chasing kiddos, trying to find a job, trying to find "me" again, a couple of roadtrips, & another death in the family it has been crazy.
Rachel is now over 5 months, loves talking with big brother, being held, and learning about how to eat cereal & baby food as well as the occasional sweet. You can see she is quite the busy little gal. She has be to SLC, Corpus Christi, & will probably squeeze at least one more trip of sorts in before the year is out. Her favorite two toys are links & her frog that hangs off the car seat handle. She last weiged in at nearly 15 lbs. & was 2 ft. tall.
Nate adores baby sister as long as she is not stealing mom's attention. He says all sorts of words now from "snack" to "treat" to "Cass, Cass" - his cousin's nickname & "K K" short for his aunt Katy. He climbs everything, loves coins from dad's pizza tips, & has a newfound obsession with anything the resembles a sticker - which is another word he can say.
Brian is doing wonderfully in school though quite burnt out from doing school & work & dealing with all the craziness here at home. He just recently was a pallbearer at great-grandma Halden's funeral (Sally's mom's mom). He & Nate love to roughouse but he also loves moments holding Rachel & talking to her.
Sally is trying to keep her head attached. She recently helped plan her grandmother's funeral, started job hunting, volunteered herself for a church calling that needs filling, & is trying to find a happy medium between sanity & insanity.

Hi,
It's Misty. :) I saw your blog off a comment on the Collingwoods. Do you care if I link yours to mine? Ours is private now but I can email you permission to get on ours. Hope you are doing well. I can't believe how much your baby has grown. I was glad to see you the Sunday we were there in Waco. We'll be back again in a little over a month. Talk to you later.
