Stair Climber

Today I was just doing things around the house as usual when I could not find Savannah Grace. I looked in the usual places and even behind the couch our new hiding/playing spot. She was not there and she was being really quiet, which means she is doing something she should not be doing and it is requiring all of her attention and effort.  So, I looked to the stairs, which she likes to use to pull up on because they are her size, and what do I see, Savannah 5 Stairs up and climbing!  How do I respond to this?? She taught herself a challenging new skill, but it is dangerous without Mommy or  Daddy! My Crazy Baby!

Go Mommy!!

High Five for Mommy!

I am blogging today because I am so proud of myself! As I told you in a previous blog I have been using my Wii Fit, which I love! I got on today and I have lost 10 lbs!! Yea for me! I am usually not one to talk about my weight, but I have been working on losing these last baby pounds and it is really HARD!! I still have 10 to go but it is a start! 

"I like to move it, move it!"

Savannah is crawling and pulling up and going crazy! She is ALWAYS moving, even in her sleep she wiggles around. Her feet are also always twirling and moving, I think she has her Daddy's restless leg syndrome. She is so crazy, I'm even having dreams that she is crawling up the walls! Last night she had dinner and then Daddy got home and after that she was so excited she was going crazy, I would have said she was ADHD if I didn't know better. All joking aside, it is very cool to watch her turn in to this mobile little person. 

Amazing..

Isn't it amazing how life progresses. I was sitting at the house taking pictures of Savannah (as usual) and I just was in shock how she has gone from a tiny grouping of cells to this mini person who can move and think and make decisions. I just had an moment when the miracle of life was apparent to me. I have known how grand this transition is for many years, but to actually put it in to perspective is just amazing! I just had to take a step back and say wow, how precious life is and how wonderful it is that we can experience it. 

Have a great day and remember how amazing it is that we are here!

Naughty or Nice???

Naughty

or 

Nice??

Hmmm, has little Miss Savannah Grace been naughty or nice this year? Only Santa knows for sure but Mommy has a pretty good idea as well. I know it is really early, however, I want to get an early start so I can finish early as well, so send me your wish lists please! (acashanking@creativepapercrafts.org) I wanted to post a little list for Savannah Grace just in case - no pressure to get her any thing she wont know the difference anyway. 

Cause and Effect toys, I think she might like little people play sets - house farm etc..., books, clothes size 6-9 months for winter and 12 months for spring etc.., we are also saving for a car seat! That's about it! 

We are hoping for a low key Christmas this year since we all have so much going on, however, I still want to celebrate since it is Savannah's 1st Christmas! I can't believe that I am posting about Christmas Nov. 5, but time flies when your having fun!!

Halloween Fun!

Yesterday was Halloween, and we had a great time! We visited Daddy at work and helped him bob for apples and Aunt Nicci put me in the bucket (without water of course!) Then we went over to Cousin Jaiden's house to Trick or Treat! She was a lion and Savannah was a giraffe, so we had our own little Safari going on. It was pretty cute. Jaiden was so kind and shared her sucker with Savannah, she of course loved it, and wanted one of her own. Trick or Treating went well and by the end of the night Savannah was pulling 2 or 3 pieces of candy out of the bucket and not letting go! All in all in went well and we had a good time. 

The Proof...

Here is a video of Miss Savannah Grace crawling!!!
