A Whole New World

My dear hubs had a wonderful post the other day that got erased when trying to upload a video that didn't work...so I will try to recreate his words.

Lately I have been loving life with E. She is at such a fun age where she is exploring and learning. She is on a great schedule and is so easy to take out and about (which means I probably spend more money than I should). There are some hard things (like trying to drop her off at the Kid's Club at the gym...too mommy clingy) but overall we're great. One of the most fun things is watching her progression with walking. This girl is a crack up! We have numerous bumps and bruises but she handles it well. Now that she's fairly confident in walking she has discovered a whole new world...both inside and out and wherever we go! (I know some warn of the independence with walking...but I'm kind of loving her exploration instead of grasping onto my leg all day. I may hate it once my house is destroyed.)

This is another great one that totally shows E's personality. She is tons of laughs these days. Her favorite game is chase and she loves to be spooked. She also loves to be tackled and rough housed. I can't get enough of that laugh.

B is finding himself in a whole new world learning to hunt in Texas. The season opens Oct. 2 so I'm saying goodbye to the hubs for the next several months. He has staked his claim on some friend's property toward Austin and set himself up a deer feeder. He says he is doing this all to provide for his family...ya know, to put meat on the table. I told him I'd be okay with just buying some chicken at the store but I guess that isn't good enough. Hopefully he reaches his quota the first weekend or two so we'll be done. He's got a pretty good shot...and is consistent (notice he shot his own arrow)!

Finally, this is my whole new world. I have the tiniest pantry and am into food storage right now so it just didn't work. We converted a coat closet near the kitchen to my storage. Thanks to my friend Sarah for the deal on the Shelf Reliance system and to my hubs for the shelves I now have this.
