We have a Tooth!

Finally after months and months of agonizing teething pain, a tooth finally poked through today. Such a wonderful surprise. Her bottom left. And it only took 7 months. The boys got theirs at 4 months so this waiting is a new thing. By 7 months the boys would have had their mouths full of those. Im sad to see that gummy grin gone, but happy that she has finally moved on.

Merry Christmas - 2008

This year we celebrated Christmas Eve on the Eichhorst side. The boys (Kianna, not so, since she is so young, at 7 months of age) were anxious to open presents and wait for Santa to come later that night. After the festivities we made cookies for Santa (also left milk for him) at home and opened presents from us.

Christmas Day was spent here at home here. Woke up to more presents that Santa and us left and saw that the cookies were ate and the milk was almost gone, which had a Thank You note from Santa next to it. G-ma/pa Radabaugh came over for a bit. The kids opened a couple more presents. The rest of the day was spent playing with new toys.

Since December 1st we made a count down chain to Santa. Finally there was 1 link left, and now there is none. Santa came and gone, resting up for next year.

Kianna is 6 months old!

This past November 25th, Kianna turned 6 months. WoW, I know...fast. Time goes by faster after each kid. So no blinking.

For those who don't know and are wondering about the cord shown in the blanket and her arm looking thick, Kianna was born with very low blood sugar. She was quite limp and not responding like they wanted her to right after birth and was taken to the NICU for 24 hours. The cord was also wrapped around her neck tight (which I wasn't surprised since she was a very active baby). The cord also had a cyst full of clear fluid on it, which also was a scary thing to know. Things could have ended up badly/tragically but thankfully it didn't. So it was very tense for a while but she rebounded quick and well. She let the nurses know that she was fine and wanted to be out of the NICU by pulling out her IV.

She loves to stand, sit, and crawl. She is very mobile and loves to get into everything. Only surprising thing, she has NO teeth. She has been teething forever tho. The boys would have already had half of their mouths full of teeth by now. Miss K is taking her time.
