tis the season

Cayden and I had our Christmas pics done a few weeks ago at Target. The only place we'll go! Krystal and Lea do such a good job & Cayden is a TOTAL ham.

Check out a few of the pics...

For the past two months I have been looking for a part time job, DESPERATELY. Well, today I finally landed one! YAYYYYY. I had an interview with one of the nicest ladies ever, Laurie. She told me she was sold on me just by our emails back and forth from Tuesday. Ha Ha. So I will now be working Monday, Tuesday & Friday 12:3O to 5:OO. Perfect hours. I can still take Cayden for our morning walk, feed him breakfast, be home in time to feed him dinner & give him a bath. I am so so so so HAPPY. =)

The company I will be working for...

Why?

Why doesn't anyone comment on my posts? Makes me a little bit sad. Maybe I'll just get rid of the blog?! =(

9 months old, ♥

My baby is becoming a BiG boy. =) He turned 9 months old on Wednesday and today we went to his 9 month check up. Everything is GREAT. He weighs 21 pounds and is 29 inches long. His pediatrician, gave me a list of all kinds of food he can try. I am sure he will LOVE it all. I have yet to find a food Cayden doesn't like. On Thursday I noticed his FiRST tooth is FiNALLY coming in. YAYYYY! And even better, it's not even bothering him. It's hard to sit down now these days cus he is constantly on the GO. He has even started to pull himself up into a standing position. Oh no!!! Pretty soon he will be walking & running all over the place.

Here are some pics of my lil guy...

A Little Late...

But...Baby Landyn is here!

He arrived last Saturday afternoon. He's a HALLOWEEN baby.

Congrats!

Cayden's 1st Halloween

So last Saturday we celebrated Cayden's first halloween. As you all know, he was a lil dalmation! So so very cute. :) We spent the evening at my aunt Lane's house with some of the fam & friends. This picture above was taken pre-Halloween for a card I made. So by the time Halloween came, Cayden was so over wearing his costume. The costume is super warm...which would be nice if it was COOL here, but unfortunately it was 8O degrees on Halloween.

So here's Cayden, over the poofy dog costume. Lol, I know he'll like it much better next year...I hope so at least.

And here is me & my lil puppy, ♥. No words can truly say how much I loveeee him.

Yes, Cayden had an outfit change on Halloween. I love this pumpkin head and he loves his Grandma.

brrrr, it's COLD.

I'm so excited it's starting to cool off, FiNALLY. Even more excited about Cayden's winter wardrobe. Ha Ha. He is going to look so cute these upcoming months.

Yesterday he was able to wear this little French outfit that he got from my dads cousin who lives in France. When I say little, I mean this will be the only time he gets to wear it unfortunately.

But he SURE looks handsome!

(even the socks match)

Since it's super close to Halloween I figured Cayden should wear his, "I love my Mummy" onesie today. It was so chilly today I even put this cute little sweater over it! SO so many compliments on it.

I am SO stylish!

Loving the cool weather & can't wait for the Holidays. :)

weekend of LOVE.

Friday night Cayden & I got to dress up all fancy and go to a SURPRiSE wedding reception for Michelle. The weekend before her & Nathan went to Mexico to get married. Unfortunately, after the wedding she didn't feel good. So some of her friends decided to throw a surprise reception. So glad I was able to attend that since I couldn't go to the actual wedding. Congrats you two! :) Cayden & MommyJessica, the BRiDE, me & Cayden

The Newlyweds!

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

AND then Saturday night the girls were celebrating Kathy's last night as a bachelorette. Luckily, they were having a dinner to start the night off. Cayden & I were able to attend this part. Everyone looked so pretty! And I'm so happy for you, Kathy.

The beautiful bride to be & Cayden.

My girls!!!

Cayden's doings...

Since Cayden turned 8 months old last Sunday he's been doing a LOT of movin' & talkin'. Monday he started crawling on his knees, not just the army crawl anymore. He is constantly on the move, and so am I. The next day, Tuesday, he said his FIRST word. It wasn't mama or dada or baba...it was BELLA, our dog. Our dog who doesn't even want to be bothered by Cayden one bit. Ha Ha Ha.

We're so excited that Halloween's right around the corner. Cayden's gonna be a lil puppy!

Mommy's Big Boy

On Sunday Cayden turned 8 months old. I can't believe in 4 months we will be celebrating his FiRST birthday. Also, this past week he started crawling on his knees & hands! He'll take a few steps then fall to his tummy cus he's faster that way. AND...last night he said his first word! It wasn't mom either...it was Bella, hahaha. Our dog. So cute!!

Here's my HAPPY guy!

Happy Birthday, Lyss!

Today my youngest niece turns 11 years old! It's crazy how time FLiES by. I still remember the day she was born. How anxious and excited I was to go to the hospital after school. Now she's a beautiful, smart, stylish pre-teen!

Over the weekend, she & my nephews came from El Paso for a visit and Birthday Party. It was a good time. It's hard seeing them every few months when I was used to seeing them every week.

Happy Birthday, Lyss!Cayden & I loveeee you.

Pumpkin Patch!

I am loving the fall weather!!! Isn't it great? I also can't believe it's already October! Time is just flying by & Cayden is getting so big.

Today, Kaleena invited us to go to the Pumpkin Patch with her, her son Jaxson, her mom & sister. So much fun. Checked out the animals & surrounded Cayden with pumpkins. I decorated Cayden's first pumpkin since he couldn't really do it. All he likes to do is put stuff in his mouth these days. ANYTHING in his mouth.

Cayden checkin' out the Moo Cow! The boys at the Pumpkin Patch!
