We Moved, She's Crawling, and Other Updates

Well, I'm once again, way behind on this blog. But I think I have a good excuse :) We moved two and half weeks ago, while Brannon was traveling every week & flew in the Thursday before we moved on Friday.....AND while we were trying to finish renovating the house we moved into. (It wasn't even done when we moved......it's really been quite interesting!)

BUT we're in our house now. Three moves in three years & we are done for quite some time. No one believes us, of course, but I say that we've never claimed we would stay put before, so it's different this time. Really! No seriously!!! We love this house, even in its unfinished state! That's when you know you're gonna really love a house. Folks say my husband (and me by association!) were crazy for moving so much, but we got a great deal in a great neighborhood in a great school zone (K-12) and not a bad commute as far as the 'burbs go. So, as far as we can see, there is no need to move. And we got to remodel the house in a unique more modern style that we like, and more importantly, that Brannon likes! This photo is of us walking at night on the golf cart path on the course that our house is on :)

So, that's one major update. The other major update is right before we moved - Keelyn started crawling at about 8 1/2 months. She just all of a sudden started wanting to be on the floor more and pushing up and then started taking off. It was great timing (HA!) since our house is under construction, half unpacked, and consequently.....not baby proofed! But she's not too quick yet, so I can keep her contained fairly simply. But I definitely am working towards baby-proofing because it won't be long before she's into EVERYTHING ;)

Here's an attempt to upload the video from some of her first crawls before we moved and one of Mackenzie when she started peddling her own tricycle:
