That Gwen is.... ::sigh:: She's growing up so fast! It seems like she should still only be a month old - but I'm glad that she's not, because Gwen has an amazing personality and I'm enjoying every minute of being her mom. This past week she has been mastering the ability to sit on her own (without falling over), and she's doing awesome at it too! She has put the crawling 'thing' on hold as she masters this other trick of hers..... other than that she's rolling all over the place and indian crawling around - so she'll be mobile in no time at all! Gwen just started eating two meals a day and is slowly being introduced to new foods. She hates the veggies that she's had so far - she all but pucks them back out as soon as they touch her mouth - needless to say though, it is quite funny to watch! The last time I weighed Gwen she was 14 lbs 15.4 oz! So she's well on her way to having doubled her birth weight, which is suppose to happen by 6 months - so she's right on par. The other big things in Gwennie's life right now are her kitties! Nothing can make her happier than when one of her kitties walks into the room, she smiles and laughs and starts bouncing all at once - it is so fun to watch! That, and her other fascination is Jon Stewart. I know, weird - right? But whenever Brian watches the Daily Show she can't take her eyes off of Jon Stewart - it's halarious! Here's a link to a Gwen's various pictures.
On the home front - we're still waiting to close on our house, but we have moved in and are renovating like crazy and trying to get everything winterized before it gets too cold..... I've been painting like crazy, while Brian tackles outisde tasks (the projects that his clumsiness can't screw up that bad :-)~ ) So, as of right now, we're just sitting tight until we hear word from their bank - but until then we're living mortgage/rent free and saving as much money as we can for now. I'll try to post some pictures of the finished rooms the next time I post.
