Beca, see what she can do!!!

We have had so much fun with Beca since she started to crawl around. She gets into everything and she keeps me on my toes but i wouldn't have it any other way.

This is one of her newest tricks. She decided that she can climb up the stairs. She loves it. she is pretty fast at it to. I think that she saw her older cousin doing it at my parents home. she isn't very good at going down. we will have to practice that one more. She is still so little that some of the time she has to try a couple times at each step but she can do it.

there she goes again

This is one thing that she is going to have to get use to. She doesn't like the snow very much. this is in Portland can you believe it. there is snow in Portland. Josh likes to tell everyone that they cancelled church because there was a half an inch of snow on the ground. well it really did happen. Josh also didn't get to take 4 of his finals because of snow. That was sad because he spent tons of time studying for those finals.

As you can tell Beca loves to climb. we have to watch her all the time because she will get in to everything. she loves to stand on things. Like the coach, the window, her high chair. and even

Me.

This is another one of her favorite spots. She hasn't quite learned how to pull the books out but i don't think it is going to be very long until she learns.

One of her favorite things is when daddy gets home from school and he gets to play with her while mommy makes dinner. they have so much fun together.

It is so much fun to see both of them light up when they see each other. She really loves to play with her daddy. She loves her mommy but she is such a daddy's girl.

Well can't wait to tell you about Beca's 1st Christmas.

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND WE LOVE YOU ALL.

WHATS NEW!!

It has been a while so i thought that i would let you know what has been going on in our lives.

Some Big News

I PASSED the NCBTMB

The National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage & Bodywork

I just took it today thought that you would want to know

Halloween!!! Tons of fun. We went to Josh's school and they had a party for the students and their children. The school has been really good about the couples with family's.

This is the Gneiting's in costume. The lady bugs and a bug catcher (aka josh).
We thought that you needed a little more help seeing the bug catchers costume. Oh no he caught one. Isn't she so cute?

Beca @ play!! she is one little girl that wants to get in to everything. If you didn't know she can crawl and she is so good at it.

We thought this was so cute. We have this toy bottle and she one day decided that she wanted to suck on the top of it. It is so cute as you can see it looks like she is drinking out of it.

This is a very new thing. She found out that she can climb in her crib. Just to let everyone know we lowered the crib that day. So there is no way that she can fall out. We love to come in to her room and see playing after she has woken up from her nap.

Also her new thing. Every once and a while she will crawl over to the blinds and start playing with them. The funny part is that it is not all the time. I must just depend on her mood. It is so cute anyway.

Went Down to the Farm (Roloff Farms)

So the other Day We went on an adventure with some of our friends. We went down to the Farm. It was this really cute little pumpkin farm. The Roloffs are a family that is on TV and they have this Farm. My friend Valarie watched this show a lot so we decided to go see the farm.

These are our friends the Gunthers (Lee, Valarie, and Jackson). This is the middle of the farm. Right behind us there is a pumpkin house with all different kinds of carved pumpkins. There was this Lady there and for her job she got to carve pumpkins all day long. I thought that would be fun for maybe one day but after a while it would get old. The lady seemed to enjoy it. She was very good at her job.

Out in the middle of the pumpkin field there was a big big pumpkin it was so big you could put your head through the eyes and the mouth. Josh and Lee were having fun posing for the picture. This was a fun place to take pictures.
We got to go on this wagon ride and it was fun but Beca had a hard time. She was super tired and the person that was giving the tower was very loud on the mike. So we think that she got scared and she cried every time the girl got on the mike. But other then that it was a great day. After the wagon ride w left and went to A&W. We got frosted mugs. I hate to say it but that was one of my favorite parts of the day. Very good end to a perfect day.

Life in Portland

At the start it was a little bit rough but we started getting involved with the ward. There are tons of student which is wonderful, because everyone is getting to know everyone at the same time. So far are favorite couple is the Rileys. They are leaving in December so we are sad, but we are already planning on her son, John, and Beca to be married in 21 or so years. Well after he gets off his mission of course. At first we had cockroaches they we pretty bad but Dad and Josh got on that right away. Also Every morning we get up and walk. There are three of us that go every morning. It is not a very fast pace walking, i think were just do it to get us started in the mornings. I really enjoy it once i get out of my warm bed.
Beca is doing great i think she is trying to move more and more. She can army crawl a little. She loves to play with toys and eat food. Her new favorite is bread with her cereal. well have to go I hope to post soon. i thought that i just needed a picture of josh on our new blog. K love ya bye.

A Day at the Beach

Josh, Beca, and I decided to get away before Josh's school started. So we traveled the pacific ocean. It took use about two hours to get to the Silver Sands motel. The motel we got was exactly what we wanted. We got an ocean front room for 77.76. very cheap and the rooms are very nice, small, but very nice. The weather was prefect it warm enough to play outside on the beach then come back in to the hotel to the warm pool. Beca went for her 1st swim. She is a natural. Josh would hold her stomach and she would kick and kick and kick. She had so much fun she didn't want to get out. She almost played through one of her naps.
We also walked around the little town of Rockaway Beach. It is a very small little town but amazing enough there was three fudge shops. We found a couple of shops that were very fun to look at. One was a tourist shop that had everything that you could think of. And there was a very expensive thrift shop. i think the name of it was trash and treasures. That store was one of my favorites. It was set up as an antique shop, quite and gotty, but it was full of DI stuff, very fun.
