Easter Pictures

Ok, so my computer freaked out and wouldn't let me upload any pictures to the last post- so here are the pictures as promised

I suck at blogging

So yeh, I know that I am REALLY REALLY lame at updating this blog. Since my last blog: Rae learned to walk, is learning to talk, and has amazingly turned into a KID before our very eyes. It's absolutely crazy. I know that's so cliche parent but I'm serious she's so big and it happened so quick.

Anyways, in other news, I don't even know where to begin. Life is spinning out of control. REALLY too fast! I am now working part-time with the family business to increase bookings. Although I was in no way looking for anything else to do it has been good to get my mental juices flowing. I mean it's great to use multiple syllables in each sentance.

We are so excited for the warm weather and for the summer to come back to us! The summer brings so much fun!!! Anyways, sorry it's been so long- here are some Easter pictures to enjoy :-)

Officially on the Move

So Rae is CRAZY busy and ALWAYS on the move these days. For some reason HER toys are no fun anymore but the dogs' toys are quite another thing . . .

or dog food. . .

or even laundry baskets . . .

I love this girl and it is SO fun to be her Mom! My Mom laughs every time she hangs out because she says this is payback time. She says that I was just as busy and just as mischievous- so I guess I've got it coming! :-D Bring it on Rae!

Fall is Here!

Hey guys! It's been forever since I posted last and so I thought I'd just give an update:

WE MADE IT THROUGH THE SUMMER! YAY! This summer was so incredibly busy for us! We were blessed with a house full of people and an agenda full of activities all summer long but it was EXHAUSTING!!! Matt and I started a linen company this summer which I managed and that was TONS of work! Our couches were always loaded full with laundry in its various stages. But the cool thing is that the extra money that we made with the business was enough to get a puppy!

We got a suposedly long coat German Shepherd puppy. Matt won the best husband of the year award for flying to Indiana and driving back with Koda Belle Toller. She is CRAZY! Sometimes I don't know what we were thinking- now we have 2 babies 2 months apart. Rae is 7 months and Koda is 5 months. This keeps me VERY busy! She's a very good dog but man does she have energy! I am constantly running after her and now I'm also running after Rae.

Rae is 7 1/2 months old and has been mobile now for a couple weeks. She does the Raezin scoot at a CRAZY quick pace! She can get across the room in a couple seconds flat! She also has cut her bottom two teeth and I think she's working on the top ones now. She is eating so well and is loving all the yummy things she can try now. She absolutely LOVES feeding herself because she's so independant! My Mom says that she is VERY similar in personality to me at her age. Which is not such great news for me- I was a CRAZY child! I think Rae is going to be just as stubborn and just as independant and mischevious as I was! She really wants to walk because this crawling thing is really holding her back from endless deathtraps such as the stairs, sharp objects and non-edible things she wants to ingest. She pulls up on things and can stand up on her own as long as she's holding on to something. She can also walk when you hold her hands. CRAZY! She is going to be walking SOOO early!

That's pretty much the news around here- hope you are having an awesome fall!

Swimming and Scooting

It has been forever since I posted anything but just in the last few days Rae has gotten the scoot down. I say it's a scoot because it is like a crawl but her stomach is still on the ground here is a video.

Also here is a video of my little fish swmming earlier this summer. She is doing a lot of the moving. When she gets excited she bites her lip and flaps her arms. I love this girl!

Life Update

So I am not super good about this blog thing, so I think it's about time for an update. This summer has been very busy. Our weekends are spent running around helping the family business and having visitors. Our weeks are spent catching up and getting ready for the next weekend.

Matt is still loving being a Real Estate agent! He is doing a great job following any leads that come his way. He has been soooo busy with work and trying to do house projects on the side. He just got to go to summer camp with our old church Waters Edge. He had so much fun!

Caeman got a summer haircut that looks GREAT! He LOOOOVVVEEESSSS it! I will have to post pictures- our computer has a virus and so I can't access pictures :-( Other than that he is doing super well!

Rae girl is 6 months old! I can't believe it! My mom says that she is VERY much like I was when I was a baby. Her favorite adjective to describe my babyhood and Rae's is BUSY. Rae is definitely always busy! She talks up a storm! She is eating baby food now which is so fun! She can sit up like a champ and she is REALLY trying to get the crawling thing down!! She's got the desire to be mobile but she moves more backwards than forwards. She's so much fun!

I am doing well. My mom and I went to visit my sister, Betsy last week. She is working at a summer camp- check it out www.swoutfitters.com. It was awesome to finally see the camp! Other than that I am running a linen service for the summer rentals which has kept me so busy washing and drying :-/

Life is good and is moving quickly at the Toller household!

Growin Girl

Rae is getting SO big- I can't believe it! Here is a video of some of her favorite things: jumperoo, bouncing, and talking.

At her 4 month appointment we got the ok to start the solid food adventure with some rice cereal- here is her first bite.
