We are Moving....

We are moving! 

No no no, not in that way!

Miss Kayden is crawling now! She has been attempting it for some time now. She first tried by going backwards, then laying on her tummy moving forward and laying down again.

Now that I may have scared you into thinking we were actually moving again, I shall blab!

SNOW! 

Yes we got snow in October. The NC native in me was cringing and twitching Sunday evening while we were waiting on it to start falling. Come 11pm we had a light dusting on the ground and cars. We had to laugh, since that "dusting" would have shut down the state of NC. We woke up Monday morning to even more snow and it still slowly falling. Lets have a little comparison!

This is the NC snow of 2013, in February. 

This is the 2013 in MT, in October at 9:30 am.

and again at noon!

Needless to say this is normal and nothing in Montana. Thankfully tho it is melting and the temps are slowly creeping back up a little. A high of 20 and a low of 10 is just stupid! Mojo is loving the snow tho, all you see is his red collar and the black around his eyes and mouth. Husky + Snow = Perfect Match! Amani on the other hand would rather pee inside like us than going outside, thankfully she knows better! 

And now on a final note!!! 

This is my first month in the MME! I am VERY excited to have my match for November and starting to get to know her! MME is where a group of moms (pregnant, stay at home, working, etc) can get to know each other and make friends! US and Canadian moms can sign up, currently US gets matched with US and Canada gets matched with Canada. Theres a $30 limit to include shipping. Once you get to know your match you send a package with some gifts which can be bought or handmade. The matches just came out and i have to say from the first email i received and scouting a bit on Instagram, my match is perfect for me! 

If you wanna check it out head over to Mom Mail Blog. On her blog she has a link to the Facebook and Instagram for MME! If you wanna sign up just shoot her an email and you will get matched next month! 

Now I am off to wrangle the crawling baby! 

Enjoy!

28 Weeks and some other nonsense.

Kayden is becoming such a big girl! 

She has always loved bath time. Usually the best and easiest thing to do was take one with her. Two birds one stone kinda thing. She loves bath toys, especially ones that squeak or squirt water. We found a pack of 10 toys for $10 at target one day and we cant separate them from her, she will play with them outside of the tub too. 

We also got her the toy thats the colored plastic rings. 

Which also found the bath.

We also have gotten to try new food with her! Since she has her two little teeth now she has learned to bite bits off of food and she gums them trying to chew. 

We still eat our baby food but she LOVE graham crackers! she would eat a box if we let her. 

We like green beans too.

Nom Nom Nom!!!

Now that she can sit up by herself we have found it easier to NOT plop her in  a stroller at stores. Once less thing to drag in. So we have been off and on putting her in what we call the "big girl seat". Its handy and easy to pick her up when she gets upset or makes her grabby hands. She seems to like it too.

Recently Mojo, our cute little fluffy husky pup, has found it nice to "get out" for a little bit. He jumped the fence many times and wandered off. Not sure if theres a female in heat or he is trying to be an alpha male to the dog on the corner. Well we thought a leash for outside would work. He just pulled his collar off. So off to Lowe's we went for fencing!

She loves those car carts. She was steering with her wheel, and there wasn't a horn but she was honking it. She would stick out her left arm, so in the spirt of things we only made left hand turns! She was so happy. We will be going for these carts where ever we go! 

27 Weeks.

27 Weeks

This week Kayden is 27 weeks old. The weeks isn't even over and i feel like its a Sunday and we really need a fireplace. 

We love the camera

She loved the after bath photo shoot! 

Must Clean... Must Organize!!!

So its official, I am on an cleaning and organizing kick! 

My hopes are to get a whole lot of bins, crates, and containers. Just so that everything will have its space. Unused clothes will go to goodwill or be stored in the spare room. The garage will finished being cleaned so that (since winter is here already *sigh*) we can park the car in there. So on and so forth through all the rooms in the house! 

I have many plans! Maybe even to many! 

I may even clean out the car... 

I do know one thing... that once I am done or almost done with this cleaning and organizing thing, it will make preparing for christmas a whole lot easier. I have so many things to make for gifts! 

I am really hoping that i can get a lot of this cleaning/organizing out of the way in the next couple weeks. Some of Josh's family should be visiting soon to see all of us. Last time they saw her in person was well when i was still pregnant, then his mom saw her when we had her. So its been a very long time! 

So I am off... Off to make a list of my to-do's, to-get's, must haves, etc! 

OH.. on a side note... 

Montana is true to its "seasons" (if you want to call them that)

When we arrived at the end or March, it was still snowing. That ended about April-ish. So May-August was the "spring - summer" which was very nice to my surprise! August - Mid September was filled with a lot of construction. Which compared to North Carolina seems to start and be done almost on one day! Over night we hit fall.. literally. Sadly unlike NC it does not linger and slowly decline into winter. Nope, that hit two weeks later. Snow... in September. A "snow shower" in MT is about how much NC gets in its whole winter! So while I was really looking forward to this while white christmas things. It looks like a white thanksgiving and maybe even halloween will be in store. 

So im going to go keep warm and organize!
