Playground 2.0

Walked down to the playground yesterday...This one was a different one than the one where she went down the slides. (how many times can i say "one" in a sentence). We went to a playground w swings. Thought it'd be fun...right...well lets say i was more excited than her. It was kinda hot out, and she couldn't see because the sun was in her face. Not the reaction i was hoping for....o-well....i suppose we will try again another time. Here is the oh so exciting video of Bethany on the swing. 9/25/12

Balloons!!!

I got a balloon for my birthday...so we attached it to Bethany to see what she would do. She loved it! I think we should just buy her balloons for her birthday. That'd be easy enough...haha. Also on a side note...Bethany is getting her first front tooth. It's the bottom left one (if your looking at her). (Watching Home Alone...yessss!!!)  Wee! 9/23/12

On the move

Now that Bethany crawls...she also tried to stand and pull up on everything....i swear it won't be long until she is walking..ney..running all around. She never wants to sit still anymore...not like that's anything new...she's never sat still...but now that she can move it's even worse. Anywho, here she is standing on the rocking chair. No need to adjsut your volume...and no you didn't just go deaf...hahah. The volume cuts out halfway through the video...not sure why. Also watching "Return to Neverland"  Enjoy! 9/21/12

                                                “And, now, come to this spot
                                                  Where the spotlight is hot
                                                  And you'll see in the spotlight
                                                  A Juggling Jott
                                                  Who can juggle some stuff
                                                  You might think he could not...
                                                  Such as twenty-two question marks,
                                                  Which is a lot.
                                                  Also forty-four commas
                                                  And, also, one dot!
                                                  That's the kind of Circus McGurkus I've got!”

Giggle, giggle...Hiccup!!

This si just a short little post. Every time Bethany laughs she gets the hiccups...its really funny but sometimes i feel bad cuz the girl can' just laugh without getting the hiccups. Happens all the time. 9/20/12

“Waiting for the fish to bite or waiting for wind to fly a kite. Or waiting around for Friday night or waiting perhaps for their Uncle Jake or a pot to boil or a better break or a string of pearls or a pair of pants or a wig with curls or another chance. Everyone is just waiting.”
― Dr. Seuss

Ain't no time, like dinner time!

We have vamped up meal times...Bethany is not eating more solid finger foods. Well "mashable" finger foods actually. I just made a bunch of finger foods and froze them. I cut up apples, pears, sweet potatoes, avacado and peas.Well i didn't cut the peas i put them in ice cube trays and added a bit of water to make pea ice cubes. Froze them all and it creates a bunch of meals for so much cheaper than baby food. So needless to say, dinner time has been getting a much messier than usual. But hey, its ok, i don't mind. It is so neat to see her have fun eating and picking up her food. The other day i loves that we all pretty much ate the same thing for dinner. Granted a lot of it ends up in her lap and on the floor. Enough of my babbleing, here is a super long video, and i'm talking like 12min of her eating her dinner. Bon appetite! 9/16/12

Sleep Walking

Man, the best thing just happened...i was sitting at the computer making "family flash cards" for Bethany while she walked around in her little walker. She was sitting over by our bedroom door and i called her name a few times and she didn't do anything. So i walked over and she was asleep. It was so cute..so naturally i took a  photo and a video...and then i laid her down. (sorry for the shakiness in the beginning, i was fighting w the dog.) 9/11/12

At the Playground!!!

Fall is upon us now! I'm so excited to bust out some cute Fall clothes and boots! We got some new first for Bethany in the past week. She now bathes in the big bathtub!! Ironically, in the bath tub is also where she has waved bye-bye for the first time and clapped her hands! She's just chugging along quite nicely. She can also pull herself up and stand (w a little assistance)..i'm guessing it won't be long before she is walking. We shall see.

OK Playground....so we went to the playground for the first time on Saturday. We were on a walk and decided to stop...they didn't have any swings but they did have slides...here in which are the videos of Bethany going down the slides for the first time...weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!! 9/8/12

She went down the smaller slide first....fun, but not as fun. Here she goes down the "big" slide.....weeeeeeeeee!

Long time, no see

It's been a while since i posted any videos. My computer got a virus and i was unable to use it. Finally got it up and running...yeah! Bethany has continued to grow like a little weed. She moves all over the place now, the only time she sits still is when she is sleeping....its exhausting. My job was pretty easy up until now. It's like a wrestling/rangling match now. Haha. I have quite a few videos to post...enjoy!! Some are long...


The first one here is Nathan and Bethany playing...i like to call is "The magic carpet ride!" Haha. 8/29/12

Bethany has been getting more flavorful meals...shes starting to eat big girl meals...here she is eating Spaghetti...well needless to say...it was nasty! 8/30/12

Tiny Bubbles!!!...don't know the rest of the song...Nathan bought some bubbles and at first Bethany backed away from them...it was funny...then she started to go towards them. 9/1/12

Snack time w attitude...she is starting to throw little hissy fits when she is told no. Video is kinda long. 9/1/12

Lastly...what you all have been waiting for...she is crawling!!!! 9/5/12
