Houston, we have a tooth

It's funny. So much time has gone by since my last real post and so much has changed. Yet nothing has piqued my interest in writing until now, Lindsay's first tooth. I can't believe how much she's changed in the last few months. And I can't believe how quickly time has flown by. She's almost 8 months now, babbling all the time, loving solids, and almost crawling. She's got to be 20 pounds now, at least. Though only weighed in at 19 and change at her last appointment.

Emma is doing great too. She passed her kindergarten screening and has orientation coming up in March. I know it's still a while away, but it's on our calendars! And she's just so much fun around the holidays -- totally into everything. She was recently in our town's  holiday parade and it seems like every weekend is filled with festivities.

Anyway, my babies are growing up. I guess it's just that time of year too -- time to reflect on the entire year. So much has changed -- for better and for worse. But the good by far outweighs the bad. Minus a job for Andrew, I already have everything on my Christmas list. I feel very lucky.

Happy holidays.
