I am such a slacker....

Ok 1st I would like to say sorry for being such a slacker, I feel like Im so busy that I finally just had time to update my myspace, facebook, and now the blog....Instead of doing several different posts today, Im going to post 1 big long 1 with many things that have been going on. Here goes......

Ethan:
He has been doing really well! Had a Dr appt on the 21st and the Dr said hes doing great. He weighs 28lbs and is 33 1/2 inches long. He did have to get 1 shot & mommy Shauna did not like it at all he cried, screamed, and even told on the nurse that gave him a shot. Then yesterday I had to take him to get bloodwork done....oh wow so horrible!! He was screaming and turned bright red, during the blood taking he kept saying "ouch, ouch, ouch, no, no, no" which is horrible to hear as a mommy, then once he was all done he had a bandaid on it and the whole way to the car he pointed at it and said "Ouch". So now that all the poking and pinching is done, he doesnt have to go back to the Dr til Feb 2010 and its just for a well checkup again. School as been going good for him, he comes home with drawing all the time, and he has a friend at school named Gage, that he loves to run around saying "Gage, Gage!" He is becoming quiet the little talker, I havent counted in a while the words he can say, but his newest are "Bye-Bye (along with waving), and "Night, Night" He also can say words like cookie, baby, cake, bubbles, and loves to put sentences together. His most recent sentence was "Look at that!" or "Where you going?" He is now in his big boy bed and I will post pics of him in it. He sleeps in it for naps and all night long; He has fell out 2x which wasnt bad for him lol. He's starting to become a little bit of a picky eater again but not near as bad as before. Still not eating with a spoon however he does try. He also just learned how to run around the house screaming as well as spinning in cirlces, like ring around the rosie...havent sang it to him yet. Overall he is doing AMAZING!!!

October:
Well this month has been kind of busy, we have managed to get all of Ethan's Christmas shopping done, and have 1 more gift for his Birthday present. I have been slowing getting things to prepare for Ethan's B-day party which Im happy falls on a Saturday this year anyway ;o) I have also done half of my shopping for Shauna for X-mas, we are now starting to shop for all the family. Ethan is going to be a dalmation puppy for Halloween, which I am excited yet scared about because I know he will want to walk everywhere, so I have been trying to teach him how to walk holding my hand instead of just everywhere by himself, I think if he knows hes getting candy when he goes up to peoples home he will be all for it lol....yea my kid loves sweets!! Gotta love myself for introducing them to him haha. I also went to see my family at the beginning of this month, it was fun myself & Ethan went out there for the weekend. I always love to see my family from time to time. They should be coming out for Ethans B-day as well.

TTC:(trying to concieve)
Is going ok, just taking it one month at a time, last month didnt result in a positive for us so we are trying again this month. Plan is to try the next 2 months maybe we will get a new addition before christmas ;o) That would be ideal for us, but since there is so much going on the next couple of months I am staying pretty busy ;o) So keeping our fingers crossed for a new little one soon.

Coming up:
Well lets see, there are TONS of things coming up that I cant wait for. Halloween being the 1st as well as that is the start of Shauna's week of vacation ;o) Yay a whole week we get to spend together as a fam. I have to work M-F but she will have the whole weekend off with us ;o) Next will be Thanksgiving, we are having it at our house this year so I am starting to prepare and see what I want to make for dinner that day. Christmas shopping like crazy the next month or so because CHRISTMAS IS ONLY 1 1/2 MONTHS AWAY!!!! I love Christmas and I cant wait to decorate the house and get Ethan into the Christmas spirit. We also have our Bff's son Brett's B-day coming up in December as well as Gage's (Taylors brother) birthday, then Ethan's 2 yr Birthday!!! Why is he getting so big!!! I think thats about it for whats coming up soon. :o) I am going to continue to update this once a week again since I got so far behind, its hard remembering all that happens in a month lol. Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend and enjoy the new pics I am posting soon ;o) xoxoxo ♥
