Hello everyone! I know, I know, it has been way too long since my last post. So I am taking the time to try and fill you all in on the goings on at the Caruss house.

Kayla has started to sit up on her own. She is so stable. She goes from a sitting position to rolling all over the floor. You put her in one spot and come back and she is in another place altogether. The one thing we can't seem to get her to do is to stay on her stomach. As soon as her stomach hits the floor, she is already trying to roll over or on to her side so she won't have to stay like any longer then she has too. She is teething nicely. She only seems to really cry or get fussy when she is a sleep. During the day, she just chews on anything and everything in site. She has had the 2 bottom teeth since she was about 4 months old. She popped through the top left around 7 months and is popping through the top right one now. One day a few weeks ago, she wore 3 month onesie, 6 month overalls, and newborn shoes. Now she is fitting nicely in 9-12 month clothes. She still has really small feet but hit a good growth spurt. We bought a little inflatable pool and seems to be a investment. Kayla LOVES the water. She will splash and splash as long as you'll let her. She loves bath time. We are working on standing. All she wants to do is stand on one foot, bend at the waist, and look down at what she's doing. This causes all her weight and momentum forward. Doesn't work so well. She is expanding her diet regularly. She is eating more and more. I feel like I'm over feeding her but I guess I'm not if she keeps taking it. She is starting to get some baby fat rolls on those legs of her. So cute.

As for Todd and I....hm. Well not much is going on with us. We are both still working full time. Todd still has his part time job after regular work. Kayla and I try to have dinner ready for him when he gets home so we can sit down for a nice family dinner. Then, some days, it just doesn't happen. Oh well.

Here are some random pictures from the last 2 months or so.
