Where did the last 6 months go???

Ok needless to say (but I'll say it anyway) I'm way behind! My baby is almost 10 months old! So much has happened I don't even know where to start.  I think I've been putting off writing because just thinking about how much Reese has grown gets me all teary-eyed.  He is such a little man now...no more snuggly tiny baby :( But I am loving how much fun he is!  But now I'm getting ahead of myself...here's a little recap of the last 6 months... (Warning: major picture overload)

Rexburg Rapids for Aunt Courtney's Bday in August



Riding in the tractor with Daddy for the first time!



And of course falling asleep in the tractor :)


Lagoon! No Dippin' Dots for Reese...sorry buddy


Cabin trips...relaxing, playing games and watching movies.  Doesn't get much better!


I don't think our little man will ever have to worry about not feeling loved :)


Eastern Idaho State Fair



Emotion Bowl...go Skyline!



We bought a house! We hadn't really been planning for a while but the money kind of came together and I started looking online and immediately fell in love with this cute starter house.  It was one of the first ones we looked at, we looked around some more but kept coming back to this house.  They accepted or second offer and we closed on October 10th!  I thought having a baby made me feel all grown-up...buying a house made me feel old! lol  Moving was quite an ordeal...babies have so much stuff! But we are so happy here  :) My next post will be the projects we've completed so far (I'm actually writing this while carpet is being put in our bedroom yay!)


Picking pumpkins! 



Happy Halloween!  There aren't enough of us for the whole cast of the Wizard of Oz (nor will there ever be!)  I am proud to say I made all of the costumes!


Rawr!


Six months old and growing way too fast



Eating yummy rice cereal for the first time!




Family pictures (thank you Karly!)







The day after Thanksgiving, I was at home getting ready to go to the cabin for the weekend and he calls telling me he's going to Community Care because he hurt his ankle, but he was pretty sure it wasn't broken.  Come to find out, not only was it broken, he was going to need surgery.  It was a rough couple months but I think it helped us appreciate each other and we grew closer. But I'm so glad it's over :)


Merry Christmas to all!  There's no feeling quite like Christmas time and I had no idea how much fun holidays are with little ones.  Reese didn't really know what was going on and it still was a blast!  






Best Christmas present ever! But Morgan's already regretting getting it for me lol




Loving the Christmasy feeling at the cabin


First time sledding...Reese wasn't sure what to think


But he does love the snow machine! He's his daddy's boy for sure!


So much has happened in the last 6 months!  It's been a wild adventure but I'm so grateful for my little family.  Morgan and Reese make me so happy and I'm so thankful that they're stuck with me :)
