The Carpenter Family

Justin and I moved to Nevada in August 2005. We love it here. However we miss our family and friends back home. Our church here is great! We have been married for 7 years. We have one Daughter, Isabella who was born Oct 19 2006 and a son Caleb due in Feb of 2009! This blog is for our Family and Friends to catch up on how we are doing. What a great invention!

    9 months old! Wow!








    On Thursday Bella turned 9 months old and on Sunday the 15th right before she turned 9 months old she got her 1st tooth and her 2nd one is coming in as well! Amazing! She is 30 inches tall which is still 100th pecentile and she weighs 18lbs and 11oz. She still has her cute "big" thighs and chubby little cheeks but she has slowed down a little in the weight gain. She is almost crawling. She gets up on her little knees and rocks back and forth and will stretch as far as she can and walk out with her hands but once she is spread as far as she can go she collapses! So close! She says Mama, Dada, baba, nana, and puts them in various sentences. When she wants me she says mama nana mama. She also makes this cute little noise with her fingers and her mouth that is so funny! Her personality is hilarious she grunts and shakes when she is excited, which is really about everything and everyone. Justin says she is practicing for wrestling :)

    She loves to eat eggs and noodles and peas, she almost gets it completely in her mouth and none on the floor :) We can take her hair on top of her head and put a little clip in it. Someone at the airport said it's her pony wish! (wish she had a pony tail) Someday soon! Still has the bluest blue eyes and blond hair! e love her so much and are so excited for her everyday and for every milestone she makes.

    We also had a great time in Seattle with out leaders from the Gathering! I am sure Justin will blog about it or maybe he wont' but it was a lot of fun! Tara is hilarious that's all I have to say! :) Justin bought Bella a new swimsuit too and it's soooooo cute!
