Busy so busy

Sorry it has been over a month and I have not posted anything. I must put this onto my "To Do" list so that I can at the very least post something once a week. Well it is the start of November which means my favourite season. I LOVE winter time and Christmas. I love the snow, but hate the cold, I love all the decorated house, but hate putting up lights, and I love the spirit that seems to catch almost everyone. I cant wait to put up all my Christmas decorations and tree. I love a traditional Christmas so my house tends to be more classically decorated. I believe in the less is more and those things that do come out for decorations should reflect that. I need to get out my lights for the outside of the house because those have to go up before it snows. We left the clips up last year so just need to get out the light strings. If I remember correctly some of them need to be replaced. Will have to hit the dollar store soon to pick up a couple of things for gifts I am in the process of making. Going to do a lot of baking and hand that out to friends, you can never have too many homemade goodies at Christmas time.

OK so for Halloween, Veronica dressed up as Tigger of course and Opa is the one that found the costume and sent it to her. Cara wore Veronica's Tigger outfit from last year so I had to Tiggers. Michaela was a Druid Goddess and Fred was a wizard from one of the D&D books he is reading. Saturday I took the 2 littlest ones to the Trunk & Treat at the church, Veronica loved it going from each car saying "Treat peas". Sunday Michaela had a concert down at the mall and they were to wear their costumes. Then once she was done we went and stopped at Jason & his Girlfriends place were the kids got popcorn balls, Yum. Then off to pick up Tyler and show off the costumes to Shaun's mom. Once we got home Tyler took Veronica out trick or treating. She LOVED it but I think she loved handing out the candy to the kids once she got home too.
Cara is moving all over the place. She went from rolling to creeping in 1 1/2 weeks. Now she is combat crawling and trying to get up on her hands and knees. She is already very quick and I am not completely looking forward to the real crawl because then it will be next to impossible to keep her somewhere. She has even started to follow me down the hall to my scrap booking room to be close to me. She is a mamma's girl for sure. She is being very difficult when it comes to learning to eat solids. If she can put it in her mouth then she is willing to eat it. I have found a few things she will let me feed her. Yogurt, Vanilla custard, chocolate pudding and of course french fries.
Well that should bring everyone up to date. I will do my darnedest to post something new within the next 7 days. Until then have a wonderful life everyone.
