Halloween...

Savannah's first Halloween was a hectic one. I thought it would be nice to make Pat, my parents, uncle and grandma dinner. I made beef stroganoff. Everyone said it was good. I didn't eat it obviously so I filled my belly with donuts and chocolate milk. Oh so healthy. While everyone else handed out candy at our house, Pat and I walked Savannah around the block and she got a few pieces of candy. I didn't want to walk that far because she can't eat it and we don't need it. She smiled and waved to everyone she saw. It was cold out so we had to have a sweater on her and she wouldn't wear her hat so I just carried it around with us so everyone knew she was a pirate. We ran out of candy within an hour and a half. There were a lot of kiddos out. I didn't see any awesome costumes though. We usually have a lot more trick or treaters than this year. Once we went inside we ate some Tequila cake that my uncle brought from Aranda's Bakery. It was alright but I don't think anyone enjoyed it as much as the Tres Leches that we usually get. Oh well. It's always good to try something new! Here are the girls in their costumes. Isn't Ally growing up?!!! She walked around with the neighbor boy instead of Savannah...hehe.

Ren Fest...

A couple weekends ago Savannah and I went to the Renaissance Festival with my parents and my sister, Ally. It was so much fun. They had never been so we basically walked around. We did see a couple of shows that were really funny. We ate yummy food and enjoyed the beautiful day. We ended the evening at Chuy's. It was delicious. I wish I could post all the pictures but since I can't here are a few...

Baby no more...

Miss Savannah is still growing like a weed. Ally weighed her on the Wii the other day and she was 18 pounds! She is so heavy now!!! I'm so glad she enjoys riding along in the grocery cart. She still loves her Beco carrier which is great because I love wearing her and it makes it easier to get in and out of places. (This carrier was my best baby purchase. I never have back pain when wearing her. I've used it so much!) We went to the store a few weeks back and some lady had her purse where the kids usually sit and was so close to us that Savannah thought it would be a good idea to grab her purse straps! I apologized and the lady just laughed. This child has turned into a handful. When we are out and about if someone isn't paying attention to her, she will make sure she makes it known. She waves to everyone and smiles away when someone stops to chat with her. She just started clapping today!!! I get so excited whenever she does something new. She pulls herself up to a standing position and she can now creep along furniture. And she can crawl on her hands and knees, and she is fast!!!

My phone totally sucks and deleted every picture on my sd card. I tried getting them back but I don't know what I am doing exactly. So now I know that I can not trust my phone to hold all of our memories. I had videos of Savannah's first crawl and everything.

My Tupperware business is doing pretty good. I am sure people are sick of me begging them to have a party but it's hard with not having many family members here. I've been doing some vendor shows and getting some contacts so hopefully I will be able to keep growing. I love that it has allowed me to stay home with Savannah for this long and am hoping I can keep it up! I don't think I could go back to work now. I would be heartbroken if I missed something!

Tomorrow we are off to the Renaissance Festival. I am dressing Savannah up in her pirate costume. I hope once the sun comes out it wont feel too cold. It is supposed to be low 70's in the afternoon and only 60's in the morning....brrrrr.

This is from Ally's birthday party. I just love this picture!
