CJ had his 4 month appointment today, a week early because of the move. He is doing great. He weighs 17lbs 13oz and is 26" long both of those are in the 90% and his head is 42.5 which is only in the 50% so he is the opposite of how Katie was at this age.
Well off to keep packing and cleaning. Tomorrow is my last day.
Also, Thursday can't come fast enough. The kids and I finally get to see Adam again after 2 1/2 weeks of him being gone. We gotta start getting used to it but its still tough. So far the longest he has ever been gone is 3 days.

Last week
This is our last week in Utah! Its been kinda chaotic trying to move with Katie and CJ. Katie has been struggling with everything changing around her. I have been trying to keep her as much on her schedule as possible but that can be hard at times. As for CJ, I still have to sit down every 2-3 hours to feed him. Both kids will be happy when I can finally just play with them and not have to pack or clean. The house is looking pretty bare. The only furniture left is the couch, TV, bed and crib. No pictures on the wall, nothing to cook with or even really cook in the cupboards and just a few pieces of clothes for the kids and I. I am ready to move to Cortez to start fresh, have a bigger house for the kids to play in and for Adam who is already working for a great company having a great job that is blessing me with the ability to be a stay at home mom.
Katie has really been missing Adam. She gets to talk to him on the phone usually twice a day and watch little videos he sends for her. Its been kinda sad seeing how down she gets when she has to say goodbye on the phone. Its hard knowing that this is how life has to be for the next few years but it will be worth it when we are out of debt, have money saved and one of our biggest goals of buying a house. As for the long term 5 yr plan it looks as though we may be moving and setting roots in San Antonio, Texas. I wouldn't mind returning to the place I lived the first 5 yrs of my life. But who knows plans could easily change in the next year.
Next week I will have pictures of the house, hopefully.
On a more random note Tuesday I find out how much CJ weighs. My guess is 20lbs or so. He is wearing 6-9 and even some 9-12 month clothes at just 3 1/2 months old. If you have seen him lately feel free to make a guess.

Moving update
Less then 3 weeks till we move!!! We had a BBQ over the weekend as a last party with our friends before we left. We are sad to be leaving all of our friends and family but are excited to start a new adventure in our life.
When we went to Cortez to meet the company and find a place to live we stayed with my aunt in Monticello, who was kind enough to give us food, a place to sleep and played with the kids for 4 days and 3 nights. We have been talking about moving Katie to a Big Girl Bed when we move into the new house and she had a trial run while we were out of town. The first night we put her to bed in the bed
Then found her here in the morning
I must say I am not at all looking forward to the drives between Cortez and Salt Lake with the kids. It turns out to be about a 7 hr trip with stops for feeding CJ and playtime for Katie. They were both so sick of the car and their car seats. They had 3 days of almost 10 hours in a car. Not somehting I recommend for a 3 month old or a 21 month old.
Katie is under there
We found a home!!!! I am so excited to live in this house. Its a great neighborhood and the house is BIG. I think Adams favorite part is there is more then 1 bathroom. I am excited that both kids can have a bedroom and there is a huge basement to put the kids toys so they can play and make a mess and no one has to see it. Oh ya there is a dishwasher!!!!! I was so excited when I saw it. No more washing dishes, well no more washing all the dishes I should say. We just now have to start furnishing it. We will be living here for a year then we will decide if we will move again and where.
I will get more pictures once we move in. I didn't want to post pictures with all their furniture even though the house probably would look better.
I will try to update again soon. I will be alone with the kids for 2 1/2 weeks while Adam starts working down there so I may find time in the chaos of packing, cleaning and entertaining kids.
