Where does the time go?

Lots has happened in the O'Dell household since I last blogged! Our family is so busy! We have officially become residents of Austell by purchasing a house close to the church. We are so thankful for our home and so many people in our church family have helped us to make this transition as smoothly as possible! David has begun his doctoral classes at the seminary and is enjoying being a student once again. We celebrated Summer's first birthday with my family in Athens. Mama came and spent a week with us, which was such a treat! Carter and Summer went for their check-ups and boy have they grown! Carter weighed 29 pounds and is 37 1/2 inches tall! Our BIG boy has grown almost 4 inches in the last 6 months! One morning David and I looked at each other in disbelief because it literally seemed as though he had grown overnight! Amazing! Summer weighed 23 pounds 8 ounces and is 32 inches tall! She has grown 2 inches since her last check-up! They grow up WAY too fast! Speaking of check-ups and time slipping by, I am going every week to see the mid-wife now that we are nearing the end of the pregnancy! I cannot believe these nine months are almost over! We are scheduled to induce baby Tilly Brooke on August 19th if she does not decide to make a debut earlier on her own! It seems our babies always need a little coaxing, so we are prepared for that again. We are so excited to meet this little baby girl and continue adding to our family! We talk about baby Tilly being in Mommy's tummy a lot, so hopefully we are preparing Carter and Summer for their new sister! We look forward to sharing with you the news of her arrival!
