December 19th, Jimmy had his 6 month checkup. Can you believe it he is 6 months old! He is growing strong and right on track. Jimmy even got his first 2 bottom teeth. He is in the 50% group for his weight, weight 17lbs 11oz. He is in the 50% group for his height. meausring around 26″ although when measuring the nurse had a hard time since he decided he wanted to roll around and not let the nurse do her job. boys will be boys I guess. The nurse couldnt get an acurate measurment so well have to wait until next time around. His head is in the 20% group. lol he Kinda has a small head! but still cute bald. When at the the Doc , Dr. wallace asked if I wanted to give him the flu shot. which I agreed to since its better to be safe then sorry, Since He was getting one guess who got one, Yes I know I’m mean. Katie was so mad at me she wouldn’t talk to me the rest of the day, but now with the kids and I getting the flu shot james wont have to worry! we hope..When the Doc was asking How Jimmy was doing after haveing RSV he said he was worried Jimmy would have been in the hospital if the inspirater hadnt worked. If I think he is starting to get a bug again i have to put him back on the inspirator doc said even if he dosent need it it wont harm him so not to be afrais to give it to him. the worst it will do id get his heart pumping a litte fast and his hands may shake a little. he even called to check-up on him a few times while he was sick. he said even though jimmy is acting like he is over his bug I still have to watch him because just the slightest bug will set it off again. Just great!!!!.Nic just had training on this she knows about it. lol…Katie is doing great, she is keeping her stuff picked up cause she thinks it’s grose that her brother(as katie would say it her BUTTER)  is drooling over all her toys.  I think its time to move the kitchen table and get baby gates to make the kids a play room. that way jimbo has a safe place to play. I’m so paranoid when he starts crawling he will get into things. with Katie we never had to worry about her getting into things, even know she is such a good little girl. I think in August when our lease is up we are going to be looking for a 3 bed room house, we’re jsut outgrowing our little apartment.

Christmas was ok, nothing special james ended up falling asleep and it was jut the kids and i most of the day. pretty much stayed in our P.j’s and played with the new toys. sure did miss california this year. James said in 2009 he will send us home. but that’s another year away. Katie enjoyed opening up her gifts she recieved from everyone. Jimmy well he was in heaven ripping up the paper and eating wht he tore off, but for a 6 month old he had a great time with his gifts. katie even showed him wht to do. when we were all finished up katie and Jimmy played with their toys, katie’s favorite gift was from mom & dad which was a real size buzz and woody that actually make noise like the characters in toy story. Jimmy is a happy little bouncer, My mom and Aunt bought him a house seat he sits in like a johnny jumper just dosn’t go in the door way, buddy will be in there for ever just happily bouncing, silly boy. as for james and I we are still working and keeping busy. I think its almost time for a vacation. this weather we have been having is a drag. sure makes me sleepy and always tired, not good for a california girl. poor james has been delivering papers in this weather, I try and keep the house warm for him. Well Hope you all had a great Christmas and have a nice new year. James will be working and I will just stay home with the kids, Happy 2009 all.
