Well, the past few weeks have been incredibly busy for us. Jeff travelled for work 3 out of 4 weeks in June and in between we had Jeff's folks visiting from Washington, my Dad and stepmom visiting from Texas, a camping trip for Jeff and the boys, Father's day festivities, we helped Jeff's brother and sister-in-law and their 3 kids move in here in Stevensville, Kaeden's been battling a stomach bug, and on and on...it's all a blur!!
It seems as though we've had incredibly bad luck as well. One of our computers broke, so we got a new one and I think it's a lemon and I am taking it in to get worked on today. Jeff's commuter car's transmission needed worked on, a mouse got stuck in the A/C unit of my car so my car smells like rotting mouse now, my cell phone broke and needed replaced, and this weekend, our riding lawn mower's transmission went out! We are ready for our luck to change! The good thing is that we are all healthy and happy and we are thankful for that!
With all of the hullaballoo going on in our lives, we decided to use the 3 day weekend over the 4th to get in some quality, relaxing family time. We just hung out at home, napped when Kaeden napped and spent some nice time together. We watched the fireworks on the 4th from our deck - which is always an incredible view. Sunday, we took Kaeden to Splash Montana and had fun on the lazy river before we got kicked out because of a thunderstorm!
Kaeden has pretty much perfected crawling and is even starting to crawl on his hands and feet instead of his hands and knees. He is also pulling himself up to standing every chance he gets and "walks" on his own while holding onto the furniture. He loves to stand in his crib and I am awaiting/dreading the day when he learns how to climb out of the crib - I don't think it is too far off! We have had to seriously baby proof the house and I re-arranged the furniture last night to create a large play pen of sorts for him in the living room that he can crawl and walk and play in.
He is a very happy, active little boy that loves to tear up magazines, bang things on the coffee table to make loud noises, get into everything he's not supposed to, and in general, make our lives a lot more interesting! His favorite game right now is to crawl as fast as he can away from Mommy as I say "I'm gonna get you!". He has also started to give kisses to Mommy and Daddy and cousin Roma and has started to wave bye-bye to people. In general, he is loving life and making life worth living for Jeff and I.
