so we found a house to rent, it is in our old stake. We turn in the application tomorrow, keep your fingers crossed that all works out. There was one couple in front of us that decided it wasn't the house for them- but great for us! We are excited and hope it all works out!

Not to much to report on here. Just living life day to day. Maren is growing like a weed. She weighs 18 1/2 pounds now, still only two teeth on the bottom. She was sick a few weeks ago and that was no fun at all. She had a nasty cold and cough but it passed.
Work is work- going good. We have Spring Break in a few weeks, I'm excited for that. Next month we will have a one year old. This year has flown by!

A few pictures of Maren at 9 months.

Maren 9 Month Stats

As of January 31st, here are Maren's 9 month stats.

Length: 27.25 inches 38%
Weight: 17 pounds 5 ounces 22%
Head: 44.8 cm 73%

She is starting to army crawl and move herself around. She has learned how to get up on her knees and rock herself but so far no crawling yet. She is such a joy to have in our home, we love her very much.

Valentines has come and gone, again! I have to say it was pretty lame around here. I made some chocolate chip cookies for Jared and got some nice Valentines from the kids in my class. We are going to go to dinner one of these nights, just hasn't happened yet.
Maren had her pictures taken last weekend. I am just waiting on the cd to come so I can post some. I know they will be really cute! Only a few more months and Maren will be a year old! Where has the time gone??
Not much else happening now. We are looking for somewhere else to move in April. There is a house in our old neighborhood that could be a possibility, which I would LOVE! We just need to check into it a little bit more.
