August 2009

Kallie is growing up SO fast...she's playing like a big kid, trying to stand alone, chasing the dogs everywhere (as fast as she can), throwing fits, etc. We are enjoying her so much!!! ;-) She had her 9 month dr appointment this last week, although she is going to be 10 months old tomorrow (Monday, the 10th). She weighed in at 21 lbs 9.5 oz, putting her in the 83% for weight. She was 30 3/4" tall, putting her in the 100% for height. She didn't have to have shots this time, so that was nice for us! She has had many falls this last month or so since she has started crawling and pulling herself up onto things. She has pulled a chair over on herself, bonked her head on numerous tables, and lots more!!! She doesn't seem to mind or get mad/upset for too long before she forgets and wants to be on her way!!!

I also had a dr appointment this last week. Nothing new or exciting to report! Just a 10 minute appointment where I got weighed, listened to the baby's heartbeat then went on my way! :-) They did tell me I would schedule my repeat C-section somewhere between weeks 28-32 (I am 22 1/2 weeks now!). We will have the baby sometime between Dec. 4 and 11th depending on when the doctor is working that I choose to have and if everything goes as planned! If I do go into labor before then, they will just do the C-section then!

Ryan is getting ready to start hunting season, so he's busy prepping for that! :-) He just finished putting in a railing at our house so we can limit the falls that the kids take on the stairs!!! ;-) Sports are getting ready to start, which means he will be starting back to school really soon! \

We hope everyone is doing well! We will keep you posted on new events that happen over the month!! Take care!

Love,

Ryan, Melissa, and Kallie
