These last few months have been so much fun. We have had several new changes to our family. First off, I took up the dog grooming position in the vet clinic I work at. I am really enjoying it and seem to doing a good job or so i am told by many people. The other big change is we are buying a house! We are so excited for this step in our lives, it is something we have been trying to do for the past year and have finally found the house for us! We will hopefully be able to start moving in the middle of august if everything goes smoothy and on time. We can't wait to have a fenced yard again!

Kayden is still growing like a weed. She now weighs 20 lbs 4 oz and is 30 1/2 inches tall. Not only is she walking like a champ but running, some days i can hardly keep up with her. She can be such a busy body!

One of her favorite things to do is go outside and play. She likes to just wander around and look at everything. We also like to go next door and pet the pygmy goats. She is starting to get the hang of talking. So far she can say, mama, dada, more, hi, bye, where did it go and i love you. We have been working on animal sounds, such as a cow, a pig, a horse, a goat and a dog. However the cow, the horse and the goat all kinda sound the same, but hey we are still learning.

When we were last in hermiston, she was introduced to raspberries and blueberries and man are they good!

Not much else has changed. Kayden surprises us everyday with everything that she is learning. She loves to help me pick up the house and is so good about putting things away. She is becoming very independant and can be very ornery some days which can be quite frustrating to me. Some times it hard to keep a straight face when you tell her no and she practically laughs at you as if to say "really mom? was the necessary?"
