Oh well. Here are a few things that have been going on since Memorial Day Weekend:
Jason turned 32, Allie is a week away from being 6 months!!!!, and Jason celebrated his first Father's Day!
The month of June has absolutely flown by, as have the others. I had a wonderful week home with Allie the week after Memorial Day and since then I cannot believe that it has been just sthort of a month! For Jason's Birthday we had a nice evening at home (it was on a Tuesday). Allie gave him new replacement lenses for his sunglasses..which took an extra 2 weeks to ship and come to find that though they are the correct ones, they don't fit the frames, well at least.
Allison-Rae has been a busy girl though! She now rolls over all the time, still only from back to front...and struggles when rolling back to her back is necessary, often leading to frustration tears if we don't get there in time to flip her. She has grown a ton in the past month, I'm very curious to see all of her stats at her 6 month appointment this coming Friday! Outfits and pajamas that fit the week after Memorial Day have now been retired to boxes :(. I hope I get to see those cute clothes again some day! Still no teeth although the low-grade fever holds strong, the drool drips more and more by the day and the gnawing is getting super strong! We have not been doing cereal all that often. We should be up to about once a day a few times a week and we're at about once a week. I plan to get a "kit" ready for her day care next week where Nancy can attempt a daily mid-day feeding. We tried bananas a few weeks ago. I still laugh at the video I have on my phone (which is too long to upload unfortunately). AR made a face like we had just given her a spoonfull of lemon juice! Well, yesterday I gave her the full tablespoon of rice cereal which she was very eager for AND she at the entire container of sweet potatoes! She loved them! She was leaning her head out and forward and making noises that I could only take as "more more more!". So...sweet potatoes are going on the grocery list!
Here are a few pictures with updates..hopefully no repeats, but oh well if they are - she's cute enough for duplicates!

Loving the exersaucer!!! This is one of Mom and Dad's favorite toys too!
I couldn't get a timely photo, but she started sucking in her upper lip and the bottom one would pout way out and to the side - her Auntie Christy (Desh) named this "the Popeye" face
4 out of 8 of the Amma Mama class babies BBQ reunion at our house!
The Fitzgerald girls. Our good friends Sara and Kevin, who we went to high school with, have Keira (left-1 1/2) and Quinn (right-3 months). It has been way too long trying to get together, but we managed to fit in a visit!
