September Catch-up!

September was a busy month for us! Before our hiatus, I posted about our beach trip and whirlwind trip to Michigan, this post catches up the rest of September :)

G is quite the stacker now! He can stack up to 8 blocks before toppling them over. I think he enjoys the stacking just so he can knock them over.




The many faces of G

We enjoyed our backyard a lot this summer and were sad to have to pack up the furniture when the weather turned. G still isn't sure about the grass, but enjoyed playing with Daddy!

Brushing teeth is not G's favorite part of the day. He does like to try to do it himself though.

G loves playing with Daddy. Here's a small sample of the fun! G is quite the giggle box.

G is adding more words to his vocabulary and loves to say uh-oh! He has taken steps before and loves to walk along with his push toy, but actually walked across the room for the first time by himself on September 18! Here is a video of his new walking ability:

We helped celebrate with Jonathan's family at Vikkie's wedding:

G loved the chickens and the chance to walk around!

Jonathan also enjoyed some time paintballing with the Evosus team

Playing Catch-up

To say our blog has been neglected and we need to spend some time catching up is an understatement! This last term of school, juggling a few too many things, and being sick has seriously diminished productivity in this household. But we are making our way back... even though, as I write this, Jonathan is sick in bed, G is recovering from a 6 hour throw-up fest this weekend, and I am not feeling particularly well! I'm still determined to get back on track :)

We wrapped up the Fall 2011 term about a week ago. Jonathan and I took Marketing Management and Accounting... it was a tough course load. We had a lot of group work, accounting assignments, and papers. The final accounting paper required an appendix with about 11 pages of financial calculations! The accounting final definitely kicked our butts - it took us about 12 hours over three different sessions! Phew, feels good to have wrapped that up!

I'm excited to share that Sarah Laura jewelry is available at a local gift store called Swift. I'm working on the Etsy page and Sarah Laura webpage, but have the Facebook page up and running with new photos of items for sale. Here are a few pics of the Swift display and a couple of the items:

That's a quick current recap... stay tuned for end of September, October, and November catch-up! :)
