Tall, Skinny Kid

Woohoo for Dad!  He passed the first part of the CPA exam!  

Jimmy has become very efficient at sitting up on his own, and he also loves his Sesame Street toy.

Jimmy is also learning how to crawl.  He is getting really close, and it's starting to scare Mom.

It has been a busy and exciting week!  On Monday, we got a couch and went to Jimmy's pediatrician appointment.  I'm happy to report that Jimmy is a tall, skinny kid.  He is in the 80 percentile for his height and 15 percentile for his weight.  Atta' boy!  We stayed pretty busy on Tuesday by going to Salt Lake for another appointment for Jimmy and then making our big Walmart run for some finishing touches on the apartment.  We now have everything we need for our new apartment.  We also fed Jimmy his first solids this week and he took it like a champ.  I think he enjoys spitting it out more than eating it, but he's working on it.  Other big news is that Travis got his CPA exam results and passed!  Woohoo!  One down and three to go!  Wednesday evening was BYU's new graduate BBQ.  We got Burger Supreme and ran into some friends like Chase Thomas.  We enjoyed the free food and catching up with old friends.  We also got dinner on Friday night at the Marriott school where they served J-dawgs.  Then again, we got free lunch at the Wymount Opening Social.  I love free food and not having to cook!  We also ran into some friends at the Marriott BBQ and I got to catch up with an old MTC roommate. Jimmy got pretty tired/fussy and fell asleep, so we finished up our date night with cookies and the new Star Trek movie that just came out on Redbox.  Nerdy, yet fun!  The Wymount Opening Social was by far the most fun.  Jimmy got to ride on a train and got a little prize.  They also had a photo booth, hot dogs, cotton candy, snow cones, music, games, and more.  The best part was that we won the door prize at the end.  Woohoo!  That evening, we got invited to a dinner by a young couple in the ward.  We ate some delicious Indian food and played Settlers.  It has been a great week and life is good!
