An Update...

Sorry it's been soooo long.  We've been busy with weddings, picnics, and getting Sally(Saleema) off to school.  But there is an end in sight!  This coming weekend Flora, Sally, and I will be heading off to Bridgeport Resort in Sturgeon Bay to spend some time with my sister, Robyn.  A girls weekend!  Whoo-Hoo!!!  After that our weekends are free!  It will be nice to get to spend some time with other friends and family that we haven't been so involved with during the course of our summer.  And to take some time for ourselves and for neglected things around the house.

Anyway, back to Flora.  She is a growing girl.  She is becoming very independent and throwing fits here and there.  Especially when it comes to going in her car seat or in the cart at the store.  She just wants it her way!  

She has been enjoying reading a lot lately.  She will bring us several books, one right after another, to read to her.  

Flora got her 12th tooth!  It came about a week ago, almost 7 months after the one that matches it.  I was able to get a pretty decent picture of it today(it's the 4th one on the bottom, on the left).  

She was eating Nutella(a chocolate, hazelnut spread) and was "hamming it up" for the camera!

That's about all.  Flora has her 18 month appointment on the 22nd and I will update you with her height and weight and all that good stuff.

As for baby number 2, we're doing fine.  We just passed the end of the second trimester(we'll be 25 weeks on Thursday) and are hanging in there until after x-mas!  I'm a bit more tired than with Flora, but at least I can take it easy if I need to.
