Talking and walking...

So Kiersten still isn't talking much... she says Dad, and mama (rarely, and i'm still not convinced she knows its us)
Her Favorite words however are "Hi" She picks up the phone and puts it to here ear and in a very sweet high pitched voice says "hiii".

And the other one that I think is cute but can be messy at times.... is she likes to throw things on the floor...anything from her toys to her food....and then says "Uh-Oh"
I want to get mad when she throws her food but then she says that and its adorable haha!! oh the joys of motherhood!!


WALKING...
she still isn't doing much of it... just across the living room... she is getting better but falls often!!

Walking...umm.... I mean wobbling

So today Kiersten Started taking her first steps...just between the furniture. By the end of the day she was wobbling across half the living room.
Here is the footage of our little darling's first steps! Can't wait for everyone to see her!

Update on the pickup...

I'm so excited to say they didn't total the pickup!! They are planning on fixing it. The body shop said they would probably have it done in two weeks.
We can't wait to have it back. But I'm going to prevent driving it at all cost!! haha
We are planning a camping trip next month down in lewiston for the archery shoot! Not a real camping trip out in the woods..
but it should be fun anyways!! Hope we have the pickup back for it!

My little Nurse

Just snapped these pics today...  Maybe she will follow in my footsteps!!! :) 

Walking Baby.... well not really hehe

Well She isn't walking on her own yet...but I'm sure it will be soon. She absolutely loves to walk behind her walker toy that our neighbor let us use.  She loves it, and loves to be chased... I can only imagine what its going to be like when she is actually walking on her own. 
Unfortunately all I have is videos of her, so I had to take snips of the video which aren't very good pictures.

 

Anxious... and going crazy!!!

So we still haven't heard about the pickup. I'm going crazy really. How long can it possably take to tell me if George's pickup is fixable or not!
We did find out that Jerry's body shop... said there was $19,600 damage. So it is right on the edge of being totaled. It all depends on how much they think our pickup is worth...
i however think its worth the 32,000 that we owe on it!!

Everyone keeps asking me why its such a big deal to me... well lets say its either we pay $500.00 and they fix it and we have a pickup...or we pay about 8-10,000 and we won't have a pickup because that is how much more we will owe on it, after the insurance pays what they think it is worth! SO IT IS A HUGE DEAL!

Well hope everyone has a great weekend...
I will be working 2 extra 12 hour shifts this weekend to put a tiny nick in the price of the damage I created!!

The Rollover - Yep crashed my husbands new pickup!

Yes, you are seeing a brand new 2008 dodge ram that I crashed.  I have to say it was in slow motion when it all happened.  Kiersten and I were headed back from her 1 year well child checkup.  We were headed home on the freeway and it began freezing rain.  I just started up an incline was going approximately 35 miles and hour and lost control.  We fishtailed back and forth about 4 times and ended up going off the road in the median between the East and West bound lanes.  I truly felt like I was going to come to a stop, but that isn't what happened.  I was traveling sideways in the median area and my back right tire hit a ditch, which flung the pickup into a roll.  Yes I completely rolled it with my 1 year old inside.  I have to say after the safety of Kiersten and I, I was in shock that I just rolled George's brand new pickup.  As soon as we landed back on the wheels, I looked up out my drivers side window which was gone to a guy standing their asking me if I was okay.  My response was  "Yes, but I just rolled my husbands new pickup."  He nicely replied and said, "It will be okay!"

   

Birthday...

We had a wonderful time down south for Kiersten's birthday!!  She was a little leery of digging into her cake and she wasn't really interested in opening presents...but it was great to see everyone! 

Birthday time....

One year has passed and we are still in awwww.  I finally got Kiersten's invites out today!  So hopefully everyone will get them in time.  The big birthday is next weekend.  We are having it in Horseshoe bend and we are so excited.
We were asked what the theme was going to be and I have decided I'm not doing a theme.  We are getting a sheet cake from costco and Kiersten will have her own mini cake that I will make for her.
So another thing that has come up... is that I think Kiersten's first REAL word is "Hi"  She picks up our cell phones puts it to her ear and says "Hi" .  I find this very funny because I had a dream prior to Kiersten even being born that we were having a baby girl with dishwater blond hair,  and she came out and said "Hi".  Kinda strange that I had that dream and her first word that she really understands what it means...is really Hi.  Kinda crazy!

Earflap hat...

So I have learned how to make earflap hats and I'm very excited that I will not have to pay a ton of money for them when I can make them myself!!
