Last Post from Poky...farwell until Omaha!

Well I thought I better post one last time since our internet is being turned off today...as I have been packing these last few days I have been reflecting upon the past school year and all that has happened in our little family.  It is amazing how quickly your life can change and how quickly your baby grows up in such a short amount of time.  I remember moving here last August and thinking...here we go...new place to live, Christopher starting Dental school, ending my job to start a new one...being a MAMA....Wow!!!  All at once what the heck were we thinkin?  Well now that I can look back it wasn't so bad...I absolutely love being a mom and a "supportive" wife to a husband in stressful schooling.  It has been a great stay here in Pocatello we have made so many wonderful friends, but it is time to move on to the the great state of Nebraska...a week from today my parents are coming to bring us a Penske truck(THANK YOU RYAN!) to move our stuff...we get to go to Boise for a little over a week to spend some time with our lovely families.  Then Chris and his dad will head off to make the big trek to Omaha, as for Kaisley and I, we get to fly out on the 18th and meet Daddy there.  I didn't think driving 17 plus hours with a 8 month old was the best idea so I made sure to make other arrangements.  Well here are a few photos of the past nine months....can't believe the changes...

I'm pretty sure this is one of the first photos of her in Pocatello...we were lucky enough to have Grandma June stay with us...looking at these pictures really makes me want to cry...

Not the best picture of her, but it shows how tiny she was...

Our first family photo shoot....thanks to the talented photographer Cindy Bigelow at Sweet Grace Photography!

This is just a random photo I took last night, Kaisley loves to be on Daddy's shoulders, it's perfect for pulling hair ;)

Our growin'...movin'...sleepin'...sweet little girl...

Kaisley is definately keeping me busy these days, she has discovered the stairs!  Yikes!  She won't leave them alone...oh and she finds the littlest things on the ground, I swear I could vacum three times a day and she would still find something to put in her mouth.  It was a little scary, just the other day I had to fish something out of her mouth...it was some weird piece of plastic thing and she was chewing on it and then she thought she would try to swallow it...and thats when she started to gag and I noticed that she needed my help....what do you do about this???  Well everything was okay just scared the parents a bit.  Well, life here in Pocatello is wrapping up, we have only 1 week left!!!! 

I think Kaisley is going to be living in sun dresses this summer, they are so easy and so stinkin cute...don't ya think?

This was about a week ago when the weather was actually

 really warm...Kaisley crashed while on one of our many walks that day.

Doesn't she look comfy...sometimes I wish that I could have a stroller my size, so I could do the same thing.....zzzzz in the sunshine!!

Kaisley loves to drink from a cup, I bought her a sippy cup and she doesn't quite understand how to drink from it, so it pretty much makes her mad.  Maybe someday she will like it?

Here she is on the move of course......

Heading for the stairs......

Found the stairs.....

Trying to move up the stairs.......

Okay one more picture...I can't believe how BIG she is getting I think she has almost grown out of her car seat!  I was reminicing about how little she used to look in this car seat, and now look...

Enjoying the park....

Here are some pictures of some of our weekend...we went to 2 BBQ played some volleyball, some fresbee golf with our friends here it was a great time!!  Kaisley had some fun too while at the park, dad thought it would be fun to put her down the slide, I didn't think it was the greatest idea so we just pretended....

It's finally SPRING!!!!

We had another eventful weekend with wonderful friends!  I can't believe our time here is almost up :) now that the weather is nice it really feels like the end of the school year...yippee!!!  Christopher is gearing up for finals and Kaisley and I are packing what we can...Kaisley is 7 months old!!  I can't believe how fast times it seems like just yesterday she was just barely born, now she's moving everywhere and getting into almost everything!  It's crazy how fast they learn.  Here are a few photos from the last week/weekend.... 

Look at that cute thang...........

                 Look at those Peas....all over.  Right when I fed

              her a big bite she decided it would be funny to spit, this is the result...gotta love those   blue blue eyes  staring at ya!

Our Easter Weekend...

We had wonderful Easter weekend, Kaisley went to her first easter egg hunt...wish I had some pictures of that but I spaced taking the camera.  But we finally took advantage of being within about 30 minutes to Lava Hot Springs!  It was so great to get out of town for a bit and enjoy what this side of the state has to offer.  I don't know if any of you have ever been there, but it is so nice and relaxing...oh and if you ever go you gotta go to the Thai resturant just up the road, it is Awesome!  Thanks Zack and Katie and of course Joe it was so fun to share the fun with the three of you.  Life is great and it is so great to finally have some decent weather.  We're down to three more weeks then were outta here!!!!

Fun At Lava Hot Springs!

  Kaisley enjoyed the water, she pretty much just laid back and relaxed like the rest of us!

My friend Katie and I with our little kiddos!

Our Easter Family Picture 2009!

Doesn't she look a little tired in this picture....her nap time is during church so she didn't get much of a nap, she went to bed right after the picture....there was no way we could get her to smile.

Guess who's crawling....

For the past few days Kaisley has been sooo close to crawling, she would actually go forward a little...but last night she went so far all on her own and today she is catching on even more!  I can't believe it!  Our little girl is growing up :(  I'm sure she is going to keep me on my toes, I guess I better baby proof....wish I could post te video but blogger still says there is an error?  Whatever...maybe someday?

LOOK who's on YouTube.....

Today my lovely husband made this sweet video of Kaisley's first six months...gotta love the Mac and imovie it makes the best home videos ever!!!  I'm afraid Kaisley is going to have a lot of DVD's with her name on them...home videos are the greatest!!  Thanks Chris for making this lovely project that is priceless...take a look just click here->kaisley on youtube
