It has been a crazy couple of months, but its not looking like it will be slowing down anytime soon!For Thanksgiving this year, Lane was gone. So we celebrated early and had some family come early here. It was my first time cooking Thanksgiving dinner for more than just Lane. Tara and I did it though and with little mistakes, Lets just say, the texture of a raw turkey is well...gross, we used tongs to get the giblets, didnt' find any. Every step we did, we checked with Jared, because he knows all. Well once everything was cooked we found out the giblets were still inside, and that the turkey was upside down. Turns out its more moist of a turkey that way. It was a lot of fun!
For Christmas Lane was also gone, so we celebrated that a couple of weeks early. It was tons of fun. Kenadie got into it big time this year. Music, lights, decorations, our elf, present everything. She loved having our Elf, Sprinkles, join us this year. It was a lot of fun when he had to leave. I was sortof sad. They kids got ALOT for Christmas. Love spoiling them this time of year!
Rager is 11 months right now. Can you believe it? That went by way to fast. I'm having a hard time dealing with the fact that my kids birthdays are two days apart, so I will have to have them each a year older within two days! Sad! Rager got tubes in, in October and they seem to have helped a lot. He has only gotten 1 double ear infection since then, But he seems to be a lot like his sister with winter asthma. They have both had croup 4 times this year already and strep. Dang cold weather. Lots of oils, breathing treatments, steroids, humidifier and vix are continuing our way for the winter. This little boy has been a nightmare when it comes to sleep! He is still not sleeping at all! I don't know if hes just a little stinker, or if being sick so much just has messed it all up. Lets hope it changes fast, because I'm exhausted! Rager started walking at 9 1/2 months. Holy cow! HE is into EVERYTHING! Hes the cutest bull legged walker you have ever seen! But he is so fast and into every room. Including the toilet, ALOT! We had to finally get a lock on the toilets because he was into them so often. He has had tons of bumps and bruises of course, fallen down the stairs and took a good burn to the hand and face. Poor Baby takes a lot! He is talking away and is playing/annoying his sister all the time. He still doesn't eat a lot of food, just isn't into it, so the bottle is still a big supplement. Oh well, makes for lots of cuddles. He has the tantrum and crying down perfect :) At his 9 1/2 month appointment he weighed 22.7 lbs and was 29 inches long!I love this chunk, maybe not so much of a chunk though, just SOLID! His smile, laugh and cheerful personality is was keeps me going after those long, long, long nights he keeps me up for!
Kenadie is also growing like a weed. She is so tall and getting skinny! She has a firecracker personality!She is catching on to everything we say. Oh my goodness, I didn't even know half those words even came out of our mouths.Good reminder I guess!She is So sweet and caring, but definitely testing the waters. She is soo excited about her birthday coming up. She has been waiting patiently for months as all her friends had theres. She has it planned out exactly: Runzel tower cake, pizza and my boys! Those are her exact requests! She is doing so well in preschool. She looks forward to it every week. She's loving dance too. She had her first performace in Decemeber and it was very bittersweet for me. When did my baby girl get so big? She looked so cute and did well. I'm really trying to enjoy ALL the good AND bad times, because it is truly going by so fast!
Watching Kenadie outside, he wants out soo bad!
Dressed like a princess!
