Thankful Tuesdays...

Well it's officially...we've hit the halfway mark of November!! That means *insert drumroolllll please* December is a mere couple of weeks away! Yippee.

Today I'm thankful for...

~ Baby B going down for his naps and bedtime (on occasion) on his own.

This is HUGE progress and it makes me giddy with excitement. Why? Because up until now, Baby B has needed to be nursed and held while sleeping or in his car seat in the car. Trust me when I say, it was a wee bit much.

~ That hubs is coming home!

This time away, although shorter (by a mere couple of days) was a lot harder than the first time around. I think being with family over thanksgiving really helped. Being away from family this time really sucked. Also, I really want to decorate for christmas but I can't until the hubs is here, I promised! <~ I know what in the world was I thinking, ugh!

Thankful Tuesday's...

Another thankful Tuesday is among us...at least I think it's Tuesday. The days kind of blur together with the hubs gone :)

So today I'm thankful for:

- a husband that is willing to work out of town so I can be home with B-man,

- friends that keep me from becoming CRAZY while hubs is gone,

- an awesome doctor who fixed my toe :),

- B-man who behaved himself for my awesome friends who watched him today;

- and we can't forget my family, so thankful for them!

Happy thankful Tuesday everyone! 

November First...

Wow, November already; October where did you go?

It was a crazy month. Hubs was gone from the end of September came home for a week October 19th and promptly left again. He'll be away until the end of November. It's hard, but it goes by fairly quickly. Luckily I have a pretty sweet babe that is happy 99% of the time.

Enough of that, lets do an October recap...

Thanksgiving
Thanksgiving was spent in Calgary this year. We decided to fly home so that Baby B could meet some more family. Plus it was the first thanksgiving in a while since I've been home...all in all it was a lot of fun. Exhausting, but fun.

Autumn Fun
Hubs flew back from work on the 19th, so we managed to get some Autumn/Halloween festivities done. Took baby B to a pumpkin patch. Dressed him up in his halloween costume and took a bunch of photos. I have to say he was the cutest Penguin I have ever seen.

Halloween
Baby B's first halloween was a huge success! Hubs had to go back to work so he missed it unfortunately, but that did not stop us. B and I went to the mall, they have a little trick or treat session for the little kidlets. We were also invited to go out trick or treating with one of my gf's and her son. It'[s almost frightening how much candy little babies get!! I'm not ashamed to say that I am wearing sweats and eating B's candy...he'll get it in a couple of hours anyways ;)
This halloween was 100% all for me, lots of pictures and memories to look back on. I'm a little sad it's over.

Now for the really exciting news!!! I broke down and joined a monthly scrapbook kit. Insert excitement here!! Seriously, it's about time I got back on the whole scrapbook/card making train, since that's what this blog is literally about...hopefully early next week I will have a post on the first kit I got and what I plan on doing with it. I'm also currently printing pictures for B's baby book...lots of future excitement for sure.

Until then, feast your eyes on this cutie-pa-tootie!!!
