other than that..Tommy got into the paramedic program through Southwest and starts on Dec 12th! which means its gonna be a LONG year... oh well :) sacrifice brings blessings right?! :) Im looking into going back to school in January..I really wanna do dental hygeine..so we will see! wish us luck!
This year for Thanksgiving we had a lot to be thankful for. Im so grateful Lyla is with us this year! On Thanksgiving day we did the whole eat at both family things.. yikes! WAY too much food.. I think next year we may have to do one or the other :) But we had a wonderful day with lots of family! All growing up on Thanksgiving night we would have a sleepover at my aunt Debbies house. Us sisters and mom decided to carry on the tradition within our little family now! So we went to Mels for the evening and watched a sad movie (Sarah's key), ate treats, crafted (kinda!) and stayed up late cyber black friday shopping! Thanks Smelly for the fun night!
playing on the trampoline with mommy
on the swing for the 1st time..loved it!
second... Miss Lyla turned 7 months on the 17th!
SEVEN! are you kidding me? Its completely ridiculous that my baby is closer to a year than not! So sad but so fun! at 7 months her stats are..
now the latest... I got a new niece!! Miss Khloe Jenn made her debut October 6th and is perfect! She is so tiny and has so much dark hair and is just the cutest thing ever. I cannot believe Lyla was ever that small! smaller actually!.. Congrats Kim, J, Kinsley and Kamri! 
My baby is 6 Months.. really? I don't even know or understand where these last 6 months of my life went. Lyla has gotten So fun! She is so much more happy and playful! It seriously breaks my heart to see how big she is and how much she is growing out of being a "baby." But each stage has seriously gotten more and more fun! We go to her 6 month check up on the 31st so I don't have her stats yet but a few things she has been doing at 6 months include..
at 5 months:
-Finally rolled over :) from her belly to her back. She never really loved tummy time anyway and now I can't get her to stay on her tummy for more than a minute.
-Giggled for me! I have to really work at it but she will! Although the other night we let Tolly in and she was full on laughing at the dang dog! I gotta make every stupid noise in the book and Tol just sat there and she laughed!
-got her 2nd haircut. She just had this little patch right on top that was kept getting thinner and thinner the chubbier she got! So I decided to buzz her whole head so hopefully her hair will grow in nice and thick and even!
-had BOTH of her bottom teeth cut through! (that's been fun!) she actually hasn't been grouchy at all...just doesn't sleep good! She was sleeping SO good! from like 7:30-6:30 or 7..and the last week she has woken up like 2-4 times! son of a....
-Has found her toesies and thinks they are great. If I lay her on her back she holds her feet up and grabs onto them with her hands and will lay like that forever! :)
-Got nasty pink eye :( Poor girl! (dang cousins! he he..)
-Eats rice cereal after she nurses for one meal a day! Still a battle cuz she always has something better to look at or yell at me for which makes it messy but were getting there..
This last one cracks me up. I gave her some water from my straw one day and now anytime I have a cup with a straw she ATTACKS it..full force. So Tommy let her go to town on the straw..she can't suck it up through the straw yet don't worry..and it was only water! but she loved trying!
