September Update

I'm sorry it's been a few weeks since I have updated, we're getting into a new routine.

I went back to work last week. it was hard, but I didn't cry. Although I loved being a stay at home mommy, being back at work helps us out financially, and gives me a chance to interact with other adults. A big thanks to Zoe's caretakers, Jamie, Stephanie, and Grandma Julie, knowing that she is with one of you, gives me peace of mind.
Zoe is growing and changing all the time. She is starting to almost roll over. She leans up to one side, but then decides not to go through with it and falls over. She is enjoying learning about her new voice. She sqwalks, squeaks, and coos, especially when she looks in the mirror. We also discovered that when we tell her " Shh" like to be quiet, she thinks it's the funniest thing, and laughs. And the more we do it, the louder she laughs, it's quiet entertaining.
I started making her halloween costume last week, she's going to be a ballerina. I made a tutu! It wasn't hard, it only took 30 minutes and cost be about $3.00. It's pink and fluffy, oh I can't wait for her to wear it!
Ryan is working so hard with both work and school. This semester he is taking a computer night class, that he just loves. It's right up his alley. He's also getting so close to finishing the super nintendo handheld.
Campbell, well, is just Campbell. She loves that Ryan finished the patio off, so she could roam out there and spend time with Ryan while he works on his projects. She loves baby Z and tries to get in her face to kiss her all the time.

A feel good: Every few months at work, the Bloodmobile comes. I've never donated before, but while I was pregnant, I discovered my blood type is O-. After learning that I have universal blood, I made myself a promise that I would donate as often as I could. Today, I started to fulfill that promise. It was not as bad as I thought.

This weekend: Zoe is going to her first birthday party, for Ethan. I'm going to try and take some pictures!

The weather here as started to cool down, I can't wait for WINTER! My favorite time of the year. Although we don't get snow here, it can get quite cold! I'm so excited to wear my boots and scarves and peacot!

Have a great week,
XOXO,

Holly&Co.

  1. Im glad to hear you're doing so well! I thought about you all week last week! Any plans on coming to Utah at all in the near future?

    Oh! I found out that if a dog licks the face, it is trying to prove it is dominate over the person. Just some advice I heard from a "dog whisperer". So try not to let him lick faces, that way he knows his place! lol... ;) I LOVE YOU!
