Our First Thanksgiving at our House

Anthony's Grandma Ruth was diagnosed with breast cancer recently so we made the decision to go ahead and do thanksgiving at our house. Another factor in that decision was that my grandparents sold the house they purchased in eastvale earlier this month and have moved in with my mom leaving them with no where to go either. it was suppose to be small anthony's family and my mom's parents. turns out my uncle jimmy needed somewhere to go and so did my dad's dad. so we ended up with 16 people it was amazing and I was super proud of myself I cooked a 13 lb turnkey all by myself!

Wild Kingdom with Daddy

It is rare that daddy has a day off when we have nothing to do! no errands to run and no chores to do. But we recently did and so we decided to take the kids to a place called wild kingdom. basically the whole place is covered with giant jumpers that are either huge slides or large climb through obstical  courses.

Thanksgiving day play group

I joined this Playgroup about a month ago and I think they are amazing. There's lots of kids, everybody is super nice. For thanksgiving they had the kids do a craft with pine cones and they turned them into turkey's. Caleb is getting big enough and busy enough I have started letting him play with the kids here and there. However he has now started eating sand and I have not figured out how to keep him from doing so.

 

The kids or really the whole group get involved with a service project every year this year it was to collect pajamas for kids and teens to donate to a local shelter this was the result of all the donations

Someone is moble

OOOOh this boy is growing up way to fast. He can not crawl but he has not let that stop him. he can pivot on his belly and then roll in that direction. its not super effective but it sure is cute to watch him try.

Chino Band Review 2013

This is my sisters last year in high school and band! and boy are we thankful becuase it takes alot of time away from auntie and grammy and we sure miss them. every year the chino high band hosts a band review and field show competition. and every year since Madison was really little we walk down to the band review and watch the marching show and have lunch with grammy. I don't usually go back in the evening especially since my kiddies are so little but Anthony was home for the evening and worked late and he didn't want to go out again so he stayed home with the kids while they went to sleep and mommy got to go out and play with the adults. I know my kids look underdressed but it was super hot during the day.

Halloween Dinner

so I thought it would be super fun to have a themed dinner for Halloween. every year we do trunk or treat but every year there is some crazy insane issue with the dinner they provide. one year it was that they decided to not use tables. another year they did hot dogs with no ketchup, mustard, or anything else. it was way more fun to have dinner at home with all kinds of themed dinner food.

7th heaven

This boys first year seems to be flying by! I'm sure he was just born yesterday. A couple of milestones are really starting to emerge and show very strongly. Here's a few of the things he has learned this month. I love this boy more every day. He never fails to blow me away with all he does.

• Sits without support and he doesnt lean on his hands for support at all
• Bears full weight on feet and loves to jump any time
• Bounces when held in standing position
• Still doesnt Bear any weight on his hands when lying on stomach
• Transfers objects from one hand to another all the time
• Bangs objects on surfaces especially to get attention
• Able to fixate on small objects and if he has his way he will roll to get it too
• Responds to his name
• He Has taste preferences and he will let you know it too
• “Talks” when others are talking
• Climbs on things with help
• he is starting to try and feed himself and he eats pieces of food instead of a lot of baby food he's eating a combination of both.
• he gets into tons of stuff basically anything that

His schedule and basic habits haven't changed any.
