November

It has been a busy month. Sorry for my lack of blogging.

We have been busy preparing for winter and the holidays. The outside looks very bare. We have yet to get snow. It has snowed here twice, for about 30 seconds. Breeanna saw it and said "ho, ho, ho". I am not a winter person at all, so it can stay away as long as it wants. We are gearing up for Bree's 3rd birthday and the Christmas holidays. Oh what fun it will be this year!

Breeanna and Kayden

November 2011

Kayden is one busy boy. He is army crawling everywhere. There is no stopping him now. Well there is with doors and baby gates. He can crawl on hands and knees about 4 times, then he drops. Thats alot of work! He can sit on his bum like a big boy. He is also trying to pull himself up on stuff. He has gotten himself stuck in some places. He has 6 teeth now, I started losing count as to which days he got them. Once one came in they all popped up! He is making lots of noise, and we swear he says "Momma". He smiles and giggles on demand and is ticklish everywhere! He had his 9 month check up. He is over 20 pounds in weight and 29 inches tall. Everything checked out perfect. Im so blessed that both kids have had no health problems. He got his flu shot, and did worse with that than any of his other shots. Poor guy! He still loves Mickey Mouse, Rio and Tangled. He will have a fit if his shows arent on sometimes. He loves books, balls and cars. What a good boy! He is now into 12-18 month sized clothes. Its crazy! There are so many clothes he didnt even get to wear. And he had like 6 pairs of shoes he never got to wear cuz his feet are so big! He still isnt eating much and its driving me crazy. He will eat a couple spoons of veggie or fruit. Gnaws on pickles and cookies. He drinks plenty of formula. And he doesnt care for juice or water. I just cant get over how fussy he is. I for sure thought he was gonna be a big eater cuz he is such a big boy.

Breeanna is growing like a weed. She goes through growth spurts. All of her size 2 pants are way too short, like she is ready for a flood. But her size 3's are too big in the waist. Thank goodness for expandable waist bands in most pairs. She looks so cute when she is dressed in some pants and tops. She looks like a stylish little teeny bopper! She finally had a trim on her hair at a hairshop. Gramma took her one day when she had her. It looks so much better now. Her hair is still so long, I call her my Rapunzel. She is eating better again. There are times she will eat like a little bird and be super fussy. Other times she is constantly nibbling and eating her entire meal. I guess we all have those days. She has been potty training a couple weeks. She has yet to do anything on the potty other than toot. She will sit on it and pretend and push. She has been wearing panties and pull ups and diapers at night. She knows when she has to go, but she does it when she tells us. Cant tell us then hold it until we get her on the potty. Atleast she is showing interest. We have an open door policy, so she comes with me when I go. I get claps and hollars cuz Ive gone potty LOL! It doesnt happen over night, so we will get there. She is talking so much now. It is pretty funny with what she comes out with sometimes. She is learning colours and numbers and is doing pretty good. She just amazes me!

1 month shy of 3!

Birthday party plans are underway! She will be 3 on December 8th. We are having a party for her the weekend following. I have invited family and friends. I hope we have a good turn out and the weather cooperates. Snacks and playing and gifts and cake. It is a Tinkerbell theme, as we love her!
