Pumpkin patch, here we come......







Today, cousin Corey and I took Sierra to her first pumpkin patch. Our plans were to go in the petting zoo, ride the hay rides and then search for the perfect pumpkin. Well, we went to the best pumpkin patch, looked at a few zoo animals and picked the perfect pumpkin. I guess we skipped a few events, but I am sure Sierra wont know until next year.

We had a wonderful time and here are a few photos from the patch.

Sierra on the move.......

The crib is down and the gates are up...........

Watch out world, Sierra Annadel is on the move! Yes, Sierra is now crawling and standing as well as getting into things all over the house. 6 months and 2 weeks and cant imagine what is coming next.
We are so excited for her. She already has so much of an imagination, and can only wonder what the crawling will do to her. I will post pictures soon of our little mover, but I wanted to blog the great news now, because things change everyday and I have to shout it out.

6 months already...........















The time is flying by and our little Sierra is growing by leaps and bounds. She had her 6 month checkup on Tues. She is in the 85 percentile by height and 75 percentile by weight. The doctor said she is growing taller' faster then she is putting on weight. We were pretty surprised that her weight was the same as a month ago, only because we started solids a week ago, and she loves them ( especially carrots and peas). So her appetite is nice and healthy.

We also survived the 6 months shots, and I say "we" because I swore I would never take her by myself for shots, but circumstances allowed me this time to be alone, but we made it through.

We have been pretty busy otherwise with different odds and ins. Sierra has been a trooper in helping dad and I get through some rough weeks. Johns dad has been very sick and is now living in a 24 hour care facility, so Sierra and I have been visiting grandpa almost everyday. She lightens up the care facility and grandpa loves to see her.

We also moved Pure Motion, the personal training studio that I own, to a new building. This has been a great adventure, and Sierra has been a big help supervising the move.

John and I are doing good. We had a few rough weeks, but our family is fantastic and we cant thank them enough for their support and love.

Here are some random pictures of Sierra.
