I just HAD to share this e-mail that I got from Heather today...I sure do miss her!

Jodi when I went to the fair and saw this.... I laughed and thought of you.... Miss you Mrs. Perky.

Kristen's walking

Kristen says hi!

Kristen's latest achievements

Our little Kristen is quite the little stinker these days, it might have something to do with non-stop teething! She is starting to walk, the most steps she's taken is probably4. She absolutely loves walking around with her "walker" as we call it. She totally looks like a little old lady and she's so happy now that she knows how to turn in different directions. Her newest word is "ug" when she came to give me a hug yesterday. She had her 1 year check-up and nothing much is different...her head still measures off the charts (thanks a lot Cory!) And she weighs 24 pounds...little chunker!

She also has been interested in drawing lately. I can't believe she's old enough to be doing this already...this is how I found her this afternoon.

They're invading!

This little guy was found behind the toilet when I was getting the girlies out of the bath. This one freaked when I went to pick it up and shed its tail...I'd much rather have these little guys running around my house than scorpions, roaches or spiders any day!

So I was sitting on the couch this morning, I go to get up and out of the corner of my eye something crawls really fast from behind the pillow I was sitting against over the back of the couch, I freak out thinking it looked like a big, nasty spider of some sort, but I was pleasantly surprised to find this little guy...


Seriously SOOO cute!
