The Conger's: Playing Catch Up!

Wow, do I have alot to catch up on! It's been a few months I know, we've been busy with the holidays, I started my new job, and well, just the kids alone keep us busy! So let's see, I started on the Maternity floor near the end of October and have loved every minute of it. I consider it "my new home", I don't ever see myself leaving. I have spent the majority of my orientation in Labor & Delivery and can't get enough of it! With the new position I have switched to 12hr days, and am able to spend so much more time with the girls. Working 3 days a week leaves me so many wonderful days to be spent with Saige plus I get to pick Kaylee up from school & participate in school activities. It also gives me more time to stay home & keep the house organized, leading to less stress!!! All together it was an excellent move for myself and my family!

Thanksgiving was amazing!! My family came from N.C. and we had such a great time together. Scott & my Dad headed off to hunting camp with my Uncles & Cousins for a few days for some "guy time", I had to work those 3 days so my Mom got to spend them with the girls and did some much needed bonding. We all came back together for the rest of the week and spent Thanksgiving day cozied @ home, stuffing our faces full of delicious foods! Oh, how I missed my Mom's cooking! The best came shortly after Mom & Dad went back home to N.C. - Dad had some scans and was considered CANCER FREE !!!

Christmas was wonderful. We celebrated with just the four of us and the girls were more than spoiled by Santa. Kaylee claimed it was, " THE BEST CHRISTMAS EVER ", and Saige was really into unwrapping presents and throwing them aside! (: The rest of the day was spent in our jammies, a nice big dinner and toy playing ended the day.

New Years's Eve we stayed home with the kids and had loads of snacks and played games. Saige was in bed around her usual time but Kaylee made it to see the ball drop - barely but she made it! She was so proud of herself! (the daytime nap helped I think) New Year's Day we just stayed in and had a nice dinner. I love to spend these moments snuggled in at home with my little family - running here and there isn't my favorite.

Now onto the kids, Kaylee hasn't changed a whole lot- maybe a little taller (: She's doing super in school and has really taken to reading. She enjoys chapter books and spends time every night before bed with her nose buried in one. Saige has grown a ton. She's approx 33.5 inches tall and weighs around 30lbs! Her teeth have finally started to come in, she has her top 4, bottom 2 and 2 molars...this late teething thing makes for MANY sleepless nights though! She's still not much of a talker, Mom and Dadda are about it. She's getting very good at pointing out the correct pictures in books when you ask and follows directions well, so I'm hoping she's just taking her time with talking. Lord knows Kaylee talks enough for the two of them! LOL.

I'm posting quite a few pics from the past 3 months and hope they come out in the right order!
