Two teeth!

The monster man now has two teeth! I love when he smiles and laughs how you can see these two little teeth sticking out it's oh so very cute! We got him his first toothbrush this last weekend and we brushed the two little guys tonight for the first time and he loved it! Hopefully that will follow him as he grows!






This is the reaction we got when the brushing was over....he was pretty sad about it!

A lot all in one!

Well this post is going to be jammed packed full of thing that are happening around our house! First things first Carl lost his job a few months ago and it was one of the hardest things we have ever been through! It was a shock to me and it definitely threw me for a whirlwind! We have been so lucky to have the friends and family that we do! Everyone has been so willing to help us out you are all truly amazing people! I hope that we can help any of you the in the same ways you have helped us! Carl was working with his uncle for a bit and we were and are so grateful that his aunt and uncle even thought of him! Carl is now working with one of his great friends doing construction which he seems to be liking for now. He also got a part time job at Home Depot which will work out great with school!

I have been going back and forth about writing this part of this post for sometime now.....and this may sound stupid to some and I know I shouldn't care about what people think of me but I do. I know that there are people out there that want nothing more than to see me and my family fail and I find that completely sad and pathetic that people sit around and hope and wish and wait around for bad things to happen to other people so they can go around and say did you hear and laugh at the cost of others happiness. With that being said here goes nothing....We have recently decided that we need to rearrange our lives and our living situation. We have decided to rent our house and move in with my parents until we can finish school and buy a new house that will fit our family in the future!  We also had to find a new home for our two sweet beagles...this was soooo hard for us we were so attached to those little dogs! I know in the end that this will be so much better for them we have had a hard time finding time to give them the attention they need with Gav. So we get to start packing up our house and we will be moving in a short two weeks!! I hope we have enough time to get our whole house packed up and moved before the weather gets too bad!

Moving on the the Gav man! He is 8 1/2 months and soooo much fun! He has the cutest little personality he is definitely figuring things out for himself! Here are a few highlight of the last few weeks...

Loves baby food and eats a fruit and veggie twice a day (lunch and dinner)
Loves to say mamamama over and over
Has two teeth!
Claps and waves and everything and everyone
Crawls all over the place
Pulls himself up on everything
Loves dogs
Hates the bouncer
Loves Backyardigans
Size 3 diapers still
Still eating 8 oz. bottles
That is the Gav man in a nut shell! Now for some cute pictures of the little guy!
