Update

So as my grandma and my sister, Alana has pointed out I have been slacking on updating the blog. There honestly, has just been nothing new and interesting to update on. Things have been going really well for Greg at school this year. His students are excellent and he really enjoys them. He has also got a lot of support this year with fundraising. It is a big job to do on your own and thankful others have stepped up and the principal is extremely supportive. 

Not much is new with me. Myself, along with Greg are taking an additional qualifications course (Special Education, part 1). A part of this course is to do a practicum and since I am not teaching I had to arrange to go into the school and watch a class. Thankfully Sawyer was allowed to come with me. She was awesome! Barely made a sound and just soaked in all that was going on around her. We are honestly blessed with such a good and happy baby.

Sawyer rolled over (tummy to back) last week. It was a big milestone and very exciting. Unfortunately, Greg was not home so he missed the first roll over but I videoed it and sent it to him to watch. 

The weather up here has not been nice lately. I think it has rained every day this week. It sucks because it keeps Sawyer and I in the house and when we are finally able to go out it is so muddy and there are puddles every where. The mud sucks for taking Edgar for a walk because he becomes so filthy. 

Anyways, I hope everyone has a great weekend. And a special happy birthday to my Grandpa Hotson and Rob!

 Sawyer playing with toys. Although she does not grab for the toy yet she will hold it in her hand and look at it.

 We recently got a package from my mom and sister. It was stuffed with lots of goodies for Sawyer and us. Sawyer got a nice new warm snowsuit and a cute little outfit from Nana and Papa. My mom also made me a sling for Sawyer. I love it and it is so easy to carry her around in it. Thanks Mom and Dad. It is so nice to get your packages and letter.

 Last Saturday Sawyer turned 3 months (wow, where does time go). This is her three month picture (with her new clothes from Auntie Jai). Isn't she so cute!


I put together this little collage of Sawyer's first, second and third month pictures. I can't believe how much she has changed already.
