Starting the process

Well after months of knowing about the move to Alaska we are finally starting the process. I am hoping that I can be more diligent about posting blogs to keep you all up to date on how it is going. I promise to post pics of the move during and after.

To love is to slow down

I never thought that slowing down was possible for me. I never thought I'd stop to enjoy the moments I have until I found love. The boys in my life have shown me that the clouds do move when your standing still, but that it's ok. I love standing still now. Trying to take in all of the love in my life. I may not have the most organized life or the most thought out day. I do know one thing, I light up when I see my sweet baby every morning and I get giddy knowing my husband is on his way home from work. I wouldn't live it any other way. I really just want to say thank you to my boys for showing me that sometimes it isn't all about having something to say. It is about taking it all in. I forget that sometimes but when I see Cory with Logan, watching them play and laugh fills my heart.

Ok maybe....

Ok, maybe I am brain washing him without knowing. He did a great job with his Christmas pictures so i got him a mickey to cuddle with and now he holds on to him with all the strength in his little hand. It kinda hit me today when I went to put him down for a nap and he was clutching on to his mickey. I looked up and I had put  his mickey ears on the headboard of his crib when i set up his bedroom. I was the one who picked mickey mouse clubhouse as the show for him to watch. I swear I'm just now realizing that I'm programing him for a lifetime of mickey memories. I also came to the conclusion that I'm freaking excited that he is a mickey freak :). Join the club buddy! I can't wait to take Logi to Disneyland! hopefully we can go in January!!

I reposted the video of logan., hope it works.

Mickey obsession

I swear Im not brain washing my child (to much ). He is obsessed with mickey mouse. If you turn on his favorite show this is what happens. oh and yes this is a very true video of how my life is. I have a happy baby and two crazy puppies! I will make sure to start posting more videos :)

My baby

    I think I'm in denial that my baby is going to get older. Last night he sat up by himself for the first time, I was torn between being so proud and teary because I just see him as my little baby who needs me for everything. He is slowly starting to out grow me. I know that this is how life works but I just wish I could freeze moments in time forever. Then when he gets older I will always have my baby. I look at old pictures of  him and I already get sad thinking that someday he will be a teenager who doesn't want mommy kisses. I have to say that he has taught me quite a lot already. I'm more understanding of all that my parents have done for me. Now i know that parenting is doing all of the things you said that you would never

do. Breaking your own rules to make sure that your child is happy. I am one of three very lucky adults that have the most supportive, loving parents to use as an example. I look back and see all that they did, all of the rules that they broke and the moments with them that I want to freeze in time. I just want to take this moment to say thank you mom and dad. It might not have seemed like I appreciated all that you did for me but trust me I appreciate it now!

The adventures of squ-eas

Well Logan is 4 months now and he is still managing to amaze me everyday. He started eating rice cereal and baby food after the doctor gave us the green light. We have tried squash and peas ( aka squ-eas ). He loves squash and becomes a bottomless pit, but as we found out today peas aren't our favorite thing.

The last time we were in Simi, Logan started rolling over. I think he realized that his dad wasn't there to watch because he stopped shortly after. Well I can officially say he is a rolling champ today :). I'm trying to catch him on video, but it is really hard though because he gets a little distracted by my awesome camera.

I almost forgot we also have a new puppy. We adopted her from the shelter so muttley would have a girlfriend. Her name is Molly. She is the sweetest, most gentle dog. Poor girl has definitely had a rough time. She went to get spayed before we could bring her home and the doctors found out she had an infected uterus. So They gave her a hysterectomy. Molly also has some pretty bad teeth. Poor chicky got pretty skinny because it hurt to eat. So Cory and I are working pretty hard trying to get her to gain weight. I think she is going to fit in perfectly in this house. I'm just glad there is finally another girl. As Cory says "even the beta fish is a boy".

I just posted a ton of pics onto picasa. I think there should be a link on our blog so u can go check it out. I will hopefully get all of the Halloween pics up by tomorrow. I'm off to bed, goodnight.
