First Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving.

I have so much to be thankfull for.

my job,

the roof over my head

and my family.

This year my Grandma and Grandpa hosted dinner

Most of my Dad's side of the family made it,

we were missing one of the brothers and a few cousins.

My cousin was there with her 2 year old daughter,

she was so good a sharing her books with Jaxton

Great Grandpa got out his singing moose for them to dance to.

Tuckered out

Reading to Grandpa

First Snow and a Bathtub Suprise

The frigid wind finally died down enough to take Jaxton outside to play in the snow.

It took about 5 minutes to get him dressed and he lasted about one outside.

But it was totally worth it he was so cute all dressed up in his poofy clothes

and he ate his first bite of snow.

He wasn't to sure about it...

Then he was in the bathtub for only a couple minutes before I hear a cute little blub blub blub

I look over and see cute little bubble coming from his bum

and then came the poo

Can't you tell he feels much better?!

We Have a Walker

My Monkey is a walkin!!

Pumpkin Guts

Jaxton got to clean out his first pumpkin last weekend.

He loved the ooey gooey pumpkin guts

He was so interested in the texture that it took him a while to try and put them in his mouth

Hopefully this weekend Mr. Pumpkin will get a face :)

Quick Update

It has been such a busy couple weeks.

Jaxton and I have been taking swim lessons twice a week.

Girls hockey has started up again, and I get to coach this year :)

Meeka is .. well a puppy and between her and Jaxton I am always cleaning something.

Needless to say I have not been doing any projects or much baking

Hopefully this weekend I can cross a few projects off my list.

Lets see, Oh ya Jaxton is WALKING!!

My 10 month old is walking

He takes 4-5 steps before stopping and starting again

He so cute and so proud of himself

Meeka thinks she is a cat

Someone found the TP

Fall Muffins

I can't believe it is the end of September already.

Our high temperatures are still in the 80's on a daily basis.

But everywhere I look there are pumpkins and leaves, bats and spiders.

And pumpkin recopies

Like this one from Annie's Eats

Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffins

The were a little time consuming but very good

After pulling out the stash of sugar from the drawer I left it open

Kinda on accident kinda because it is a pain to close

Jaxton was happy I left it open

He found new toys to make noise with :)

Swingin

Robie, Jaxton, Meeka and I walked down to a neighborhood park I chanced upon last night. It was nice and quiet, we were the only ones there.

I put Jaxton in the big boy swing and he loved it!! He giggled and giggled.
