Fall is more fun than winter.

ugh. I am the worst at blogging.

But I need to type this stuff down! My little baby isn't even a baby anymore.

She said a real sentence this week (besides "I love you"). We were at her friends house and he was asking his mom for juice and then I hear this little high voice say "I want juice too".

WHAT. THE. HECK!??!

She is a little person now! When she doesn't like something she will say "I don't like that" or "I don't want it." Right now she gets extremely upset if I am chewing gum and attempting to blow bubbles and yells "NO! I don't like that!"

I am having such a great time with her. She is so independent which makes this age a MILLION times better than having a newborn.

She is in underwear all the time now except for nap time and night time. Maybe that will change when she gets a real bed instead of sleeping in a pack and play.

Fall was BEAUTIFUL here in Wisconsin. We went to a ton of apple orchards




Did I mention I just adore this child?

The apples here are terrific. We loved making fresh apple cider.


Halloween was a blast. Dan finally dressed up with me and i LOVED it. He was Bert Macklin (FBI) and I was Janet Snakehole (duh). And if you don't know who those people are then you REALLY need to watch parks and rec. 

It gets dark here at 4:30. Ew. And its about 20 % outside. I don't have a great coat yet so i am DYING. I am not even being dramatic. What the heck are you supposed to do with a toddler when it's so flipping cold outside! She goes crazy when she is indoors all day! 

Anyway... I'm really looking forward to escaping to the DR in a month.

Dog (commonly reffered to as Angel)

At my house lives a Dog.  (named "angel") The thing about Dog is... its hair gets EVERYWHERE. On your clothes, furniture, carpet, floor.... everywhere. It's impossible to completely clean the floor because you turn around and there's always more hair there. Talk about annoying/frustrating/messy. Reasons to not have a dog... they smell, you have to pick up their poop, they shed, you have to bathe them, you have to take them on walks, they bark... loud, you have to feed them, they shed , they lick you after they lick heaven knows what else, and a bunch more reasons. Reasons to have a dog.....                                .   .   . Basically a dog is kind of like a baby that never learns how to talk, or grows spiritually and emotionally, and learns how to feed themselves and use a toilet and become independent. And they look nothing like you.

The day I had a baby

Brace yourselves... This is going to be a long one. About 4 weeks before my due date, a friend from church gave me a book about hypnobirthing. If you are planning to give birth naturally, I suggest not trying to cram what would take 9 months to learn into 4 weeks. The book was wonderful. It talks about how birth is a natural, sacred, and beautiful thing. If you are ready to give birth and aren't afraid, there should be no pain. After reading it, I was 100% sure my birth would be a pain free, natural birth. Yeah, my sister and mother said labor was awful but they just don't have as high of a pain tolerance like I did.... Ha. What a silly thought. We had taken a tour of the hospital and my birth plan was all done. We were ready for this baby to come. I had watched dozens of birth videos and cried during every single one. I made Dan watch at least 3 with me so he would be prepared and not pass out for the birth of our daughter. A week before my due date, February 3rd, I wa

Levitation

Sooooo yeah. I know. It's been what... 5 months? I guess being married is kind of a time sucker. But only in the best of ways. Oh yeah... Did I mention? I got married! And I am LOVING it! It's exactly like a roller coaster. There are highs and lows and all sorts of fun twists and turns. There are parts that make you want to puke and others that make you scream with excitement. It looks a little scary at first, but once you get on, you never want it to stop! I'll post some pictures of our wedding later. We had an AMAZING photographer and the pictures turned out great! Yesterday my husband told me about this new type of photography where people look like they are Levitating/flying. Wait... flying ? Seriously? Count me IN ! So now we are a little bit obsessed with it. Yeah no big deal... levitating when I study music history
