Time, where is it going? November is gone and we are looking at another Christmas ALREADY? How did this happen? We had a fun November! We started the month moving into this big beautiful home in Hyrum. It is not much more money and more than twice the space. Good trade up eh? The best part is, if we somehow finagle a way to stay in Cache Valley, we can buy this beauty. Who knows where life will take us, we are as interested to find out as any of you are.
With more space, we were able to host our first Thankgiving Dinner. Interestingly enough, we had my entire family here, as well as Rich's. The only missing family member was Rich's Dad. We also had Rich's Aunt and Uncle, who are locals in Hyrum. We fed 28 Adults and 4 Children! We were bursting at the seams but so pleased to have enough space to have everyone. The food turned out great too!

Mr. C is making all kinds of progress in the mobility category. He scoots, mostly backwards, but also goes from sitting to a belly flop to get a little further. He's been getting up on his hands and knees and rocking for about a month now. I'm pretty sure our beautiful christmas tree will put him over the edge and he'll be crawling in no time. I know my days of a non babyproofed house are numbered, I guess I'm enjoying the last of them.
While Grandma and Auntie Ang were here for Thanksgiving, they showed Caleb how to hold his own bottle. I guess I baby my baby too much. He has a new found independence but he prefers Mom hold it for him.
He continues to love his bath and entertain us during bath time. The other day I was soaked by the time he was done. I think he'll be a swimmer. This is the edited photo.
And the slobber slobber never ends. I imagine teeth will be cutting before too long. I think my days of breastfeeding are numbered.....I'm pretty sure I'm not enduring teeth. He doesn't seem to get the fact that biting is a no no when I'm feeding him...he'll cry when I yelp but then still thinks I'm something to gnaw on the next time....no good!
I guess thats a mini-update. If I think of it, I'll take pics of the Casa and post them later.
Merry Christmas everyone!
