Life Oh Life!!

Jami is indeed feeling better. THanks for the thoughts and prayers.  She has even made it past 8 o’clock on several evenings lately.  Energy is back and she is feeling good. 

We had a  great visit from Molly Dolly (aka Grammers) mid month!! She came and helped organize our little casa for the newest addition.  She did it all from clean, organize, enterain Eisley, tickely Eislye, chase Eisley, hide and seek with Eisley and much much more!! THanks a ton! Eisley still tries to get her when she sees her on the web cam.  We also got to spend a chilly day at the Arboretum during her visit which was quite nice. 

Thanksgiving was petty low key.  We got to see Jackie and the Tiggeman-Morris clan and we still had food left over.  Gotta love that momma!! The twins are too cute and I am sure Eisley is keeping her eye on them for future play dates.  She is really getting to know her soul sister by birth Ms. Abbot. 

We also got to see uncle Brandon during a little birthday celebration.  I can’t believe he is only 25. YOu can pay me later Brandon.

Eisley continues to develop normally as far as we can tell.  (We’ll know for sure on number 2.) Her vocabulary is increasing and her personality is starting to show more too.  She can be embarrassed easily and loves to stare a hole in people when out and about.  Eisley has been saying “Ho, Ho, Ho”, counting to 5 and sometimes 10 and also loves to say “Happy Day”.  Her word endings aren’t real clear but she seems to really understand a lot and is able to bring things to mom and dad and follow pretty simple commands. Puzzles are lots of fun and she has been finding matching pictures with the matching game as well as stinging everyone with her fake snake.  She loves to push the limits and doesn’t seem to have a mid cry but rather goes straight to the bloody murder yell when doing mundane tasks like diaper changes or not getting her milk quick enough for her.  Good times indeed.  I guess this is when the real work of parenting starts eh? 

Today we walked to our local nursery and picked out our Christmas tree.  We figured we would get it early this year as we haven’t had our own to decorate for 2 years.  If you need any extra ornaments please contact me personally………..I don’t think I see any branches.  Just kidding dear.  We have a bet going as to how many ornaments our little helper will break during the holiday…….I am going with 3 and Jami is going higher. We’ll see.  We are all looking forward to the Christmas break.

This month started off with a bang as we were finishing up the Vegas trip as we got to witness Clay and Jennifer tie the knot.  We were able to go to Mt. Zion National Park in Utah a few hours awar from Vegas.  It happened to be the one rainy and cold day of our entire stay.  Oh well, we made the most of it and had fun.  We are also able to tour the Hoover Dam and a few other parks around it.

 

Vegas left us all tired and off schedule, but after a few days we all got back on to fairly normal sleep routines. 

We found out that we, (Jami), are pregnant before we went to Vegas and have had follow up doctor’s appointments verifying that everything looks good.  We are waiting to find out the sex until the day of just as a little extra surprise.  We have been busy getting the house a bit more organized………aka…..nesting.  Apparently Jami wants to be able to actually use the closets and not just have them stuffed.  Molly will be coming the second weekend of Nov. to help us with that project and of course spoil little one.
