I feel like everyone is updating their blogs lately and I'm a little out of the loop, so I'm finally getting on it. Last time I posted it was almost Kastyn's first birthday so I decided to post some pictures to show how much fun we had.(this was CLEAR back in September! Thats how far behind I am)
One of the best things about bein a mommy is that I can be completely obsessed with mokeys, and as long as I give it to Kastyn, its ok right!
We have had a lot of fun adventures to start off the fall. We went to the Red Barn and rode the hay ride and played at the pumpkin patch, it was so much fun. It will be even better next year when Kastyn is more interested in picking out a pumpkin.
Our ward had a Trunk or Treat the day before Halloween, so I decided to make my trunk look like a spider Web. I think it turned out pretty good.
Hanging out waiting to watch Seth in the Elemntary school Halloween parade.
Kastyn can hold on to any object and walk, but he just wont let go. He can stand by himslef and everything, he's just to chicken to do it on his own. I am so greatful to be able to stay home with him everyday and watch him grow and learn.
I have also been able to work on myself a little. I finally weigh less then I did when I got pregnant with Kastyn, and although at that time I was trying to loose weight I can honestly say that this is the best I have felt about myself in the longest time. I really dont remember the last time I felt this good actually. I would probably be doing better then I am but I just cant eat good. So I depend mostly on my excersising to keep me healthy. I also depend on it to keep me saine! Because running and walking it cheaper then therapy. There is nothing better to clear my mind then a good workout. Whether I am by myself listening to the ipod and clearing my mind of anything but the song that I'm listening to, or if I'm with a friend visiting to help the time pass i just love it, and I feel so good everyday for it!
One thing I've learned growing up is that life is hard. Sometime I feel like I am just emotionally drained. I look at Kastyn when he is crying because his milk is gone and I hope that that is the hardest thing he has to go through for as long as possible. And when I am felling emotionally drained he is the one who keeps me going! Every little kiss from him makes everything better. I look at other people that are just so miserable in their life and I wish that they could just realize that even through all the hard times there are so many beautiful things in this world. A childs laugh or slobbery kiss, those are the things that keep me going. I can only hope that one day, the people in my life that seem to never be happy, can realize that there is so much more to life then money, and what people think of you that you've never even met before. I have so much to be thankful for not only this month with my "Today I am thankful for..." post on facebooks but all year long.
