Latest News...

Hi All ~
We haven't had an update in almost a month, so I feel I owe everyone some news on the Larkin family. We had Jack's 6 month check up on May 15th and he is a whopping 22.4 pounds and 27.5 inches long...definitely a big boy, but such a happy boy!! He is sitting up by himself completely, and loves to sit there and play with whatever toys he can. He hasn't started crawling yet, but I think it's just around the corner, as he seems awfully interested in getting places quicker than Jim and I can carry him!
Jack also has his first teeth - they finally came through on May 16th, so almost 6 months to the day - he hasn't seemed too bothered by them, which is good for mom and dad.
Meg is getting bigger and bigger - talking more and more, and becoming more opinionated by the day - lately she tells me she wants to wear "pink" every day - she doesn't care what pink she is wearing as long as the clothes or the shoes have pink on them. I find it very cute, but makes it hard once we have gotten through all the pink clothes in her closet. She is quite the helper at school, and her teachers really seem to love her. The other kids in her class also seem to get very excited when she arrives in the morning - makes me very proud as a mom that she is so good at making friends.
As for me and Jim - same old, same old. We are working, trying to deal with the heat of the summer, making our summer vacation plans and enjoying our time with the kids. We are headed to New Orleans for the long weekend and I promise to have lots of new pictures posted when we get back!
Hope this finds everyone well! Happy Memorial Day!!
