Summer Winds...

Hello, sorry its been awhile, but its been a crazy busy last few weeks. Jayson's mom and grandparents came to visit a few weekends ago, it was a blast! We only wish they could have stayed longer! Mya loved having her Nana and Great Grandparents around! Lets see, what else? Mya is doing great, we would have never even known she had crawled at some point. She is a full blown walker, and now a runner! She tries to run, but usually trips on her own feet. Although, she does like to run and chase her new fascination....the wind! She loves to be outside when the wind is blowing and look up to the trees! All she can say is, "WHOA!" She will run in circles with excitement every time the wind gusts! She likes it so much she gets mad at us when we make her go inside the house. I will post some pictures of Mya's wind adventures!! She is also learning new words and things everyday, her newest word to date is "horsie." Its so amazing watching her learn, probably the coolest thing I have experienced! I'm sure Jayson would agree!

Speaking of Jayson, he is busy as always, but he has taken some time to talk about wedding plans! We are working on it!!! I promise!!!! I will be starting another part-time job as well. I have always been interested in photography, so I was lucky enough to get hired at Sears Portrait Studio as a photographer! I am pretty excited. We will give it a trial run and see how it works with our busy schedules! If at anytime we feel Mya is not getting enough time with us, we will reconsider. So we hope it all works out! Well that's about it for now! We hope you all have a great Fourth of July, have fun and be safe, and LAURA HAVE THAT BABY ALREADY!!! LOL!!!

Townhome, Dogs and Mya Oh My!!!

Hello! Well we are officially unpacked and moved in!!! YES!!!! The place is coming along nicely and becoming a home for us! Phoenix's barking is getting better each day too. Sometimes I think Mya is louder then than the dogs combined. She has mastered the screech, scream, and the word, "no!" She is loving the extra space too, so much so that she walks everywhere she goes and loves climbing up and down the steps! She is growing up so fast. The other day she even went pee-pee in her potty chair, not once but twice! She loves her potty chair, we ask her what do you do on the potty and she responds with, "pee pee." She is definitely testing us and pushing our buttons which can be very annoying, but she always makes up for it with one of her slobbery kisses or snugly hugs or a cute silly grin!!!! She is our little nut!!!

Grandma McQueary and Great Grandma and Grandpa Papen are coming to visit today for a few days as well! We are all excited to see them....Mya especially, she has been walking around saying Nanna!!!! Then this weekend we go to Brainerd and Little Falls for Jaysons work and to see my parents...busy busy busy!!!!

Well here are a few pics of our place and Mya....I'll write more next week! Peace!!!

New Home!

Hello all! So we did it, we moved, well technically we are STILL moving, but its coming along. Once everything is where it needs to go we will take some pics for the blog. It is sooo nice having the extra space! Mya loves it, she is walking everywhere! The dogs are having a harder time getting used to a new routine, well I should say Phoenix is having a hard time. Poor Phoenix has a bad case of separation anxiety, always has! She barks all the time and now that we have neighbors it has become a problem. So we tried the collars, you name it we tried it. We have resorted to a muzzle, and it breaks my heart to see her like that, but at this point we are running out of options. Its that or she has to go to a new home, which we really don't want! I have been taking her for walks in the morning too to try and tucker her out. We are going to bring her to the vet as well, hoping to get some answers, we may have to medicate poor Phoenix. So cross your fingers that it all works out and we can keep our pup!!

Other than the dog drama, we have been busy packing, unpacking, cleaning and all the fun that goes along with moving. Mya has seemed to adjust well, so that makes things go a little smoother! Oh and I FINALLY have a dishwasher, where have you been all my life dishwasher, I love you!!!

Jayson is busy with work and keeping our family afloat, he is my rock really!!! Once things have settled with the move, our wedding plans can again resume!!!! Very fun!!!!

Well thats about it for now, PEACE!
