Here comes trouble...

Miss Savannah is now crawling. She isn't fully there but every day she becomes faster so she'll be there soon enough. It takes her a little bit to get going but if she wants something, she gets to it. I can no longer keep her on a blanket and know she's going to stay there. She is everywhere BUT the blanket. This makes it very hard to do anything. She likes to touch buttons on the DVD player, play with the dogs food, their water or on their bed. She likes to "play" fetch with Benji. Meaning I throw the ball and if I'm not paying attention, he gives it to Savannah and she puts it in her mouth. Shopping is getting harder too. She likes to grab whatever grabs her attention. She does sit in a cart now which makes is a little easier. She loves it, too. She looks like such a big girl when we are at the grocery store. We've been working on our English, Spanish and sign language. I am trying to teach her the word no but she thinks this is a funny word and laughs at me when I say it. Any suggestions with that one? She can stand up when she has something in front of her to hold on to, as well.

As for me, I have been super busy lately. I am trying to get our guest room/office all set up so I have somewhere to file all of our papers. I am trying to become more organized. I am trying to get the house clean. I am trying to be a better wife and have dinner on the table for my husband when he gets home from work. The problem with that is I have no idea how to cook! lol. One day I will get there. I am trying to eat healthier. One day, I will be doing all of these things. I just have to remember that it doesn't have to happen overnight.

As fall is coming upon us (we will be getting into high 80's next week, close enough) I have been thinking about what I am thankful for. I have so many new things in my life and I am grateful for all of them. I am thankful for God giving Pat and I an amazing blessing. Savannah has changed me so much. She is my world. I am also thankful for all the amazing people I have met these past few months. They will be life long friends. I am also thankful that I joined Tupperware. I have been able to help us out financially, get out of the house and have me time, enjoy great company, and have fun doing it.

I have a feeling that Tupperware will open many doors for me. I will soon becoming a manager and I can only go up from there. My director is so awesome and I just love her. Our team, the BeeWares, and her daughters team, Blessed, are all fantastic and I can't wait to see where we all go from here!

Have a great week! And thanks for reading :-)

Busy, busy...

We have been so busy lately. I decided to sell Tupperware, we went to New York, we've had visitors, and Savannah has already turned 6 months old!!!! She goes to the doctor tomorrow and even though I'm not looking forward to her shots, I can't wait to hear how much she's grown. She is already in 6-9 month clothes. Some 6 months she can wear but they are getting small.

We had a great time in NY. Pat had to stay back in Texas since he had work so Savannah and I flew up with my mom and sister, Ally. She did so good on the flight. She slept and played and didn't cry. I was so relieved. I was nervous that she would have a melt down. We had a scary flight on the way back though. It was from Buffalo to Baltimore and we hit really bad turbulence. We all flew up in our seats and the people that already had their drinks had it all over them. It was crazy seeing the drinks fly in the air. I was so afraid!!!! Savannah was in my lap and I was just ready to be on the ground. On our flight from Baltimore to Houston they let me bring her car seat since it wasn't a full flight so I was way more relaxed. She will never sit on my lap again when we fly.

Other than the flight, we had a great time seeing family and friends. We were extremely busy while we were there so I am sorry for all the ones I didn't get to see! I was also sick so that kind of sucked too. We had a wedding, reception, family picnic, went to the 4H Fair, ate lots of ice cream and pizza, hung out with lots of family and Savannah got to meet her bestie, Gracie. Gracie didn't like the fact that Savannah was getting attention from her mommy and daddy but that is to expected from a 1 year old that has never had another baby stay in her house.

This last month Savannah has grown a lot. She can now roll over from back to front and front to back, sit up (almost) on her own, hold her bottle, eat her toes, walk backwards in her walker, walk when you hold her hands and she eats like crazy. She also loves the pool and will put her face in the water and kick her feet when she's on her belly. Oh and she likes to grab anything in front of her!!!!

Since I have too many pictures to post, I decided to put them in a collage. And since it's taking too long and Savannah is getting fussy, I will have to post the rest of the pictures later.

Where have I been??...

I haven't been getting on the computer much these days. I always think of something to blog about and then never get around to do it. I can't believe I haven't posted in almost a month!!! So much has happened since then. We've been to fireworks, parties, the beach, swimming and Austin. It has been busy. Oh and Savannah has been going crazy in her jumperoo. She LOVES that thing. She is starting to notice things, reach for everything, roll over from her back to her belly, eat solid foods, sleep through the night most nights, talk away and giggle. It is so awesome. I am loving every minute of it. And I am thankful to have an amazing husband to bust his butt working so I can stay home and watch Savannah grow. I might not get to for much longer but I couldn't have imagined going back to work after 6 weeks. I love that I've been able to spend all my time with her, play with her, laugh with her, feed her; it's all so awesome.

Today, Savannah is 5 months old!!! I remember my pregnancy going by so fast and it seems like now it's going by even faster. I just want it to slow down a little bit. I know it isn't going to be much longer and I am going to talk about her first steps and her first birthday. I just want to enjoy her being a baby a little longer.

We will be heading to NY in two weeks. We are going to be extremely busy and I might not get to see everyone but I am glad I get to take Savannah to meet some of her aunts, uncles, cousins and friends....and she gets to see all the ones that were able to come down when she was born.
