It is snowing again. :( It is all mushy and wet too...not the pretty snow that I like. Ah well. I hope it is snowing up at Mom and Dad's too so that we'll have plenty of snow for the sledding weekend next week. :D

I haven't blogged lately because really, nothing terribly exciting has been happening. Cian finally is over his cold and though he is still teething, he doesn't seem too upset by it. His two bottom teeth are completely out now, and it looks like he will be getting his two top teeth soon too. It makes me nervous as I'm nursing him. lol

Here's a pic of his new smile I took about a week ago. His teeth have come in a bunch more since then. :)



Here are a couple other pics I had on my camera that I thought you guys might like to see. :)

Cian taking a bath in the sink -




He has been learning like crazy lately. He is starting to copy facial expressions - like my smile. He does it just like me lol. He also gets hooked on certain sounds; both making them and hearing them. For awhile it was "Bah Bah Bah" all day long, then it changed to "Da Da Da" and now he's into making a growly shout. I'm trying to teach him the "Ma Ma" sound next. :P He is also getting SO CLOSE to crawling. He can get himself onto his hands and knees and is starting to try to move an arm or leg forward, causing himself to tip. :) He sure can move around pretty good on his own though through a mixture of scooching and rolling. I am constantly getting him unstuck from corners lol. He is also trying to pull himself up on things now, though he hasn't had any success yet.

It is so much fun to watch as he just learns and learns! I never paid this close attention to what babies do before, and didn't realize how fascinating they all were! :)

Rain is all healed up from getting spayed. I think we finally have learned how to contain her energy when people are over at our house - we give her a toy to play with or a bone to chew. She runs around showing it off to everyone instead of jumping and licking, then she'll settle in to play or chew it. It works great! It is nice to know that there is something we can do and that maybe now we can have people over to our house more without having to stick her in her crate for hours.

I have recently been playing the piano again, and I hadn't realized how much I missed it. I don't get the chance to be musical much anymore, other then just singing to myself or Cian as I go about the house. I do really miss it - especially working out my voice. I would like to get back into a worship team eventually when we find a church.

Well, I better get going. Have a great day all! <3

    We have a picture of Aunt Deanne being bathed in a sink that is so similar to the one you took of Cian - same lighting, same actions. She was, and still is, a cutie pie. They have that in common, too. :-)
