Big Changes

I know it has been forever since I've posted. . . but here it goes. We moved about a month ago. We bought a triplex in Layton so it has been fun learning the whole landlord/homeowner thing. Some days, I feel like everything has gone wrong! It's a lot of responsibility, but I guess I need to learn that sometime anyways.

Mike is working at Salt Lake at Grant Thornton. It's the middle of busy season right now for all the extensions people made for their taxes, so he's working long hours. I am working as a volleyball coach at Bountiful High School and I love it! Elsie is our little mascot. I made her a brave outfit and everything. She comes to all our practices and games. I can't complain about being able to take her with me. Her grandpa likes to have her around as well.

Elsie is now 9 months and WALKING!!! She has been walking with help for ages now, but a few days ago she started taking multiple steps in a row without holding onto anything! She still prefers crawling because she gets around much faster though. Let's see, she has 6 teeth. Her favorite games are peek-a-boo and running away when we chase her "I'm going to get you!" She makes massive messes where ever she goes. She climbs stairs, and falls down them usually gracefully. She opens cupboards and our sliding glass door. She eats everything (no surprise, she is related to her mother). We just took her to her 9 month appointment and she was:

23 lbs. 10 oz. (97%)
28" tall (77%)
18" head circ. (89%)

She is so much fun to play with and we love her to death! She has adapted well to all the new changes with the new house and is sleeping through the night! Yay! I think that's about it in a nutshell. I'm going to try to be better. . .

Here is a little video of Elsie
