Hello again!
It has been too long! In that time much has happened. Zoey is a whopping 7 months old and we have been in VA for almost a year! Amazing how the time flies. I will admit that most of the excitement in the last couple of months has been with Zoey. Wyatt and I are fairly boring at the moment but Zoey is ever growing and changing!
About two months ago she started getting on all fours and rocking but has yet to actually start really crawling or go from laying to sitting by herself. She is however moving forward a little bit at a time. The funny thing is that she would rather stand than sit if someone is there to hold her. I think this little girl will walk soon after crawling!
Her first long car ride went well. Of course she did get a little cranky but no more than expected after spending all day in the car. She also did very well on the drive back with mom. Sadly Zoey came down with a fever and lack of appetite on the 23rd but we took her to the urgent care and were told she only had a slightly red throat.
Christmas Eve was quite fun. We spent the evening with all kinds of family moving from house to house and finally ending at Mama Sue and Grandad's house. It was wonderful to see everyone and I am happy that Zoey was feeling better. While she was not super interested in actually opening the gifts she loved the paper, bows and everything her cousin Raegan brought her. That was fun to watch. Even though Zoey couldn't crawl and Raegan is not "walking" so to speak Rae wanted to make sure Zoey didn't miss out on all the fun stuff found on the floor. That did not always mean she was ready to share the "toys" or her Poppy.
Christmas morning was pretty great. Santa left her a blow up ducky, a set of teething keys and a new raddle! What more could a little girl ask for? After opening her gifts she played with what else.. the paper and bows! She did however get some great gifts though such as her new little piano, many books, and a new Brazilian boyfriend named Pedro. Yes she is racking up the list of boys wrapped around her little finger. As Holly Bergbower put it she has a man at every house rather than every port. But who could resist those big eyes and infectious smile?

That's what I thought you can't!
Zoey received two late Christmas presents... her two bottom front teeth! She decided to let Wyatt and I know they had come in at 5:00 AM! Of course after this her fever magically disappeared. She cut two more teeth while driving back but it wasn't nearly as dramatic. There is a possibility that she may cut two more teeth in the next week which would put her at a grand total of 6 in 1 month! She is getting so big!
Thankfully she has done well with all the traveling and adapted to being home very well. Now to adapt to Wyatt's new schedule after next week. More on that later....
