It's about time!

I'm having a hard time these days with updating my blog. It's not that I don't have anything to share with you all, it's just me being lazy and our internet connection not always there. I have tons of pictures I'm uploading as I write this, so stay tuned for those. 
Well, where do I start. We seem to be adjusting well to Aiken. The weather is awesome. We were actually a little bit chilly the other day. (I'm going to freeze when I make that trip home to Idaho.) We are able to go outside and feel comfortable and not feel like we are cooking. Speaking of cooking, I've been trying to be better at cooking more and I'm getting pretty good at it. (That was random, but just thought I'd throw that out there.) 
Ryan is sooooo busy with work. He is back on the day shift, which we love, but he is always so exhausted when he gets home. I would be too if I had to wake up at 4:15 everyday! How do you do it Ryan? I'm so proud of him. I truly do feel lucky to be able to stay at home with Grey. She is so much fun and is really starting to show her personality. She is very talkative and she's not afraid to talk to strangers. That part makes me a little nervous. I feel like we are in a parade whenever we walk out of walmart. She's got everyone's attention and blowin kisses and "bye, bye's" and "see ya laters." I'm not sure where she learned that. She loves her new kitty (that's another story in itself) and sometimes she loves her a little too much! Grey is so funny in the car, she plugs her ears if she doesn't like what I'm listening to and if I change the station from something she did like she yells "hey" so I change it back and she starts dancing. She loves to dance. I've taught her a few moves, sooo cute. She says excuse me after she burps (and then she has to fake alteast 5 burps and excuse me's after that.) She can say her name (not while she is burping) and she is definitely talking with us a lot more. I could go on and on about Grey. We are just so proud of all she's learning and the sweet little girl she is. 
As for me, I spend my days keeping the kitty alive and playing with Grey. We have fun. I'm still sewing a little here and there. I just got 3 more patterns, so those will keep me busy for a while. I'm going to an Aiken moms club meeting on Monday. Basically the moms club is for stay at home moms and they get together throughout the week for different activities and they have a moms night out once a month. They do fundraisers for different charity groups in the community, so I'm excited to be a part of that. 
We miss everyone at home, but we are loving our lives here in South Carolina. We hope all of you are doing well! I will try to keep on top of my blog with pictures and updates. Have a great day!!

Glad to hear you are doing well. I joined a moms club here, and it is such a great way to meet a lot of moms in the area. That will be fun for you! So funny about the burping and music :)
