Nine Month Update

Gabbie had her nine months check up today with Doctor Peterson. He walked in the room and looked and her and said 'Wow, I didn't even recognize her at first. She has a lot of hair, she didn't have that much when we I last saw her.'

Here are her stats for everything:

Length: 30 inches
Weight: 21 pounds

She's a really big girl and is doing great. We are amazed at how much she is growing every day. She keeps getting bigger and bigger. We sometimes look at her and wonder what ever happened to our little girl. Each day is a new adventure with her and she definitely keeps us on our toes. She has to be watched always or she will be into something in no time at all.

Since starting this blog, Gabbie has had two teeth break through her gums. They are her bottom two middle ones and she loves rubbing her tongue across them. She is doing remarkably well with them. There has been hardly any crying or fussing. She has had a runny nose and a headache but has been very easy going and well tempered. We love this little girl!

by the way, thank you so much for your offer to take hannah sometime when i was an emotional mess. :) we ended up having a pretty good week that week, so i didn't end up calling for help. but i'd still love to get together sometime... just for the sake of getting together and having some company! i don't know what your schedule is usually like, but i'll be in touch sometime... maybe some day next week? this week i'm kind of recovering from having company in town! :); September 22, 2008 at 11:48:00 AM CDT

Meet the Christensen Family!

Kyle and Christy met in August of 2005, officially started dating on the 5th of July 2006, and got engaged to be married on November 16, 2006.

They were married in the Mt. Timpanogos Temple in American Fork, Utah on the 17th of February, 2007. In June of 2009 we moved to Houston, Texas.

Gabriella was born on December 4. She weighed 8 pounds 1 ounce when she was born and was 20.5 inches long at that time. Since then, she has grown a whole lot and consistently measures in the 100th percentile among children of her age in categories of both weight and height. She loves anything to do with Mickey Mouse. She also loves reading anything she can get her hands on and pretending to be a princess.

Noah was born on July 10. He weighed 8 pounds .08 ounces when he was born and was also 20.5 inches tall. He has a very patient personality and really loves his big sister despite her struggles with no longer being the only child. He also is the teaser of the family.

Lizzie was born on December 17. She weighed in at 5 pounds 12 ounces and was 18 inches long. When she was first born we thought she was going to be our quiet child. Boy were we wrong. She is demanding and will scream at you to let you know she needs some attention. At this point, she is a complete Momma's girl.

In August 2007, Christy started her 2nd year as a 2nd Grade Teacher. She Graduated on April 27, 2007 from BYU with a Bachelors degree in Elementary Education. At the end of the 2007-2008 school year Christy retired from teaching and became a stay at home mom.

In April of 2009 Kyle graduated as a Bachelor of Arts in English Education with a Psychology minor. While in his studies at BYU he has had an emphasis in Critical Rhetorical Theory specifically dealing with issues of Class, Gender, and Race in the Literary, Political and Pedagogical realms. Kyle no longer teaches. He has moved on to the Human Resources field. The company he works for now has great benefits and advancement opportunities. We can't wait to see what the future will bring with this new position.

Taylor has graduated high school and no longer lives with us. She will forever have a place in our home though and will always be a part of our family. Good luck to her as she heads off to BYU-I to study Recreational Therapy.
