Frog Update

This just in. The frog has been found.

So as some of you know, we have a history with frogs. In our apartment we had one that snuck in our house nightly and we had no idea how. He would hang out outside our door as well and waited for us to open it to sneak in (pretty sure that was his exact thought process).

We bought a house and moved in in December. As the weather warmed up a little bit, we started to hear a ribbit over the baby monitor. We have searched for this frog! But we can only hear him!

Nate was out mowing the yard and I get a few texts...

I ran outside to see him and he was already gone! He hopped into the bush right after his photoshoot.  I feel like we are playing hide and seek with our friend... And he is totally winning.

Don't worry, Nathan mowed around him.

Where's Ivy?

Ivy is now nine months old. She is the busiest little girl I have ever seen, and I am busy! She is such a joy to have in our life. Her new thing is getting into to everything and eating literally anything that she can get her hands on, or at least trying. There is always something in her mouth. Just the other day I pulled the plastic sticky stuff from a command strip out of her mouth. She was chewing on something so I checked and felt nothing. Two minutes later she is continuing to chew. So I busted through those tight little gums and got it out.

I have people, who I don't even know might I add, at Wal-Mart tell me that she shouldn't suck on the cart handle. I just want to say, "Well I wasn't born yesterday! It is a lost cause with this child!" I may have actually told someone that..... 😞 (Don't worry, I do have a cover for the cart, but she finds ways...)

She is also constantly crawling in her own style (bear crawling that is) and getting into anything that she can. Here are some prime examples.

I never thought I would get such a workout chasing a child who can't even walk yet! We love Ivy so much and can't wait for nap times, then we can't wait for her to wake up. Then wish it were nap time again. 😉
