Hello All!

So here we are, apart of the blogging world...finally! I had set it up a while ago but between the move and not having the internet set up, well you get the idea. We just moved to Springville, UT the first of September and despite my original feelings I am ABSOLUTLY loving it! Cameron is still working for the "Intrepid" which is a long range fishing boat that is based in San Diego while I stay in our new home and play mommy AND daddy. We are currently on the job hunt here, haven't had any hopefuls yet but we are very optomistic.
Andie is loving "Andie's house" and "Andie's NEW bed" she is getting to know all of her cousins and Nana and Papa. She turns the big 2 on November 8th! I can't believe it. We are planning a Winnie the Pooh party up at Nana and Papa's and she has already picked out her cake. She has discovered horses (since they are everywhere out here) and tries to ride Brady when he is playing on the floor. For the most part she is a great help and loves being the older sister, but she doesn't always know when she is being more harm than help. This last week I have run into the room to find Brady crying and not on the couch where I left him quite a few times. Yesterday I came into the living room and didn't see them but could hear Andie saying "Brady, you ok? You ok Brady!" and when I discovered them, he was on the floor wedged between the ottoman and the chair (where he originally was) and Andie was lying on the ottoman, her head hanging off and stroking his hair. Today, Cameron and I were putting things away and Brady started to cry. I usually let him cry until I am finished but that wasn't good enough for Andie, I turned around to see her holding him by the neck about three feet from the couch. I ran over to grab him away and Cameron took Andie into the other room. Everytime this happens Andie gets in trouble and then we have a heart to heart about "I know you are just trying to help and love your brother, but you can not pick him up." It just doesn't sink in...any suggestions?!
Brady is such a sweet boy, he just turned three months, holy cow it seems like I only had him yesterday. He wakes up about 8 always bright eyed and bushy tailed which easily makes this my favorite time of day. He laughs at everything and loves when I sing to him. Brady is such a trooper and puts up with his sisters endless kisses, smothering and now picking him up! He is starting to "talk" lots and even will belly laugh if you are doing something really funny. It is such a breeze having a mellow child as opposed to well, Andie.
We are all loving having our own place and feel so blessed to be here. I am working hard to get our lives back in order and am excited to see what is in store for us here in Utah. It will be great to have Cameron back in school come January, graduate and then be able to move on to bigger and better things, mainly a REAL job! We have been reflecting a lot on how the Lord loves us and has blessed us. Life hasn't always been easy but now we feel that it has been worth it.
