Beca's Birthday with the Gneitings

We traveled to Idaho and it has been a party the whole time we have been here and the parties are just starting. Beca had a birthday party with her Gneiting cousins. We are so excited to be in Idaho with the family.

Beca and mommy

Beca loves her cousin Ryland. They played really good together. He would bring her toys and whatever she wanted

They are so cute!

Beca loved her presents but there is one thing that she loved more and that was a ...

BROOM!
She cleaned and cleaned Aunt Sara's kitchen, living room and everywhere she went. She held on to that broom for the longest time. She would cry when I had to take it away from her so that she could eat her dinner.

She loved to open the presents that had paper. She was really good at it too.

As you can tell she got spoiled from all her presents.

She had so much fun playing with her cousins. They were really good to play with her and let her play with them even though she is a lot smaller then they are. Also you can tell that she is still holding the broom in her hand, hours later.

These are her Gneiting Cousins. there are six now with the new addition, Spencer. He is 2 weeks old, he is so cute. From left to right Lindsay, Spencer, William, Beca, Hannah, and Ryland. It was so much fun to see them and we are so glad that they came to Beca's Birthday Party.

One of the Many Tricks of Beca Rae!

We thought that you should see for yourself how cute Beca is when she walks.

So what do you thinks? I know she is the cutest.

We visited Mt Tabor!!

We decide that we need to get out of the house. So we invited our friends, Sabrina, Kevin and Caleb Mangum, to go to Mt Tabor with us. That whole weekend before it was Sunny as can be. Monday, President's Day, was so cool. We bundled up and went anyway. I am so glad that we did. We ate lunch first and then we hiked up to the top of the mountain. to tell you the truth it isn't that far from the parking area. Then we came back down and had lots of fun playing on the play ground.

Beca loves to go down the slide. We have to be right there because she likes to scoot forward to get her started. It is one of her favorite things.

Beca and Daddy going down the big twisty slide. Starting at the top.

There they go!

Wasn't that so much fun. I think that Beca likes to go down the slide by her self just a little more but daddy is always a good choose.

How do you like our new ride.

This is Beca and her friend Caleb. They were so cute. I think that Beca even kissed him. We are going to have at talk with that little girl. I wish i had a picture of it.

The view form the top of the mountain.

This was a statue that was at the top as well. I can't remember who he was or why he was on top of the mountain but we got a picture anyway.

We thought that this was a nice looking building so we got our picture taken in front of it. Come to find out that they are the bathrooms. So we have a picture in front of the toilets.

It was a fun trip!!

Gneitings Having a little bit of fun!!

We went to Multinoma Falls one Saturday for an adventure. The whole week was so beautiful and the day that we decided to go some where the wind decides to blow harder then

ever. It was still beautiful. We went up to the bridge and it was covered in ice. People were sliding and falling it was crazy. But we decided that we were there for a hike so we went on. We did go very far because the higher we go the colder. So for the kids we turned around.

There we are all bundled up it was cold.

This was just above where the ice finally stop. So we thought that it would be a great place to take a picture.

Isn't this an awesome picture. I thought that it turned out really good.

These are some cute pictures that i got of Beca.

She is learning how to stand all by herself. She is getting really good at it.

She loves to play Peek-A-Boo with any thing that she has.

She is so cute!

These next three are my favorite. They show how happy she is.

What a cute little tongue sticking out there.

I can't even believe that i am so blessed to have this beautiful little girl in my life. She is the second best thing ever to happen to me. Of course Josh is number one.

We are still having fun in Portland and we love you all.

HAVING FUN IN THE SNOW!

We left snow and was welcomed by even more snow when we traveled to Idaho for Christmas. We did not let that slow us down we just enjoyed it all. We were with Josh's family for Christmas. It was small, cozy, relaxing and we enjoyed every minute of it.

We dressed Beca up in her new Christmas outfit and thought we would try it out. We found out that she only likes the snow if she is not in it.

We had to get a picture of Beca and her Grandpa because she was having difficulties being around him. We still don't know why but if she knew he was next to her she would start crying.

We all wanted to go sledding but we didn't have any thing to down the hill with. So Josh and Chuck can up with an amazing plan. They took two pieces of plastic and put snow in it to weigh it down. All the sudden we had these sleds that did so good going the the hill.

Ryland

This is the best shot we got of our sleds. They don't look like much but they were so much fun. Keep having fun.
The Gneiting

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.
