*Frustrated*

I'm a frustrated mommy. Jaden is not a good solid eater, really only wants a bottle and I really want to try and get him off the bottle and to rely on solids. Pretty much every time I put him in his highchair he will throw his food on the floor or spit it out. I have anxiety leaving him with anyone because I know he probably won't eat good for them.
I feel like I have tried everything and nothing is working, and on top of that because of not eating a lot of solids he will wake up at night around 3 AM and want a bottle. I seriously can't even think of having another child until I get this one to start eating good. Anyone have the same problem? Any suggestions would be great except for telling me the obvious of going to my doctor haha because I have done that. Or am I being worried for nothing? He is a happy little guy and the joy of my life, I just want him to grow up strong and healthy.

*Thanksgiving 2011 and Update*

This Thanksgiving was a little bitter/sweet this year. First off the actual holiday was lots of fun, we had dinner at my relatives house and took family pictures. Jaden was also a huge hit and social butterfly with all my relatives so that made this Thanksgiving lot's of fun too. The reason it's bitter/sweet is that we will be staying in Washington a little longer than planned.

Josh was offered to help with another project up there, which was a financially smart decision and will help further his career. Unfortunately we will not be moving into our beautiful house right away, it will just sit there waiting for us till we get back sometime hopefully in May. The up side is that when I get back to Arizona, I can do all the upgrades and furnishings to my new house that I want, so that makes this living in Washington business bearable haha.So for now I will just be traveling back and forth like usual between Washington and Arizona, but hey I'm racking up those Southwest rewards points so that's another positive.

I will also be in Arizona for the entire month of December so that makes me happy as well. The only down part is Josh has to go back to WA to work for a few weeks, but will be back right before Christmas, and then it's SAND DUNES for New Years..SO EXCITED for that!!!

The whole family!


My siblings!


Our little family!



My aunt had a Santa Clause come to her house for the kids on Thanksgiving. As a parent you look forward to these moments when your little one get's to sit on Santa's lap. As you can see Jaden was not enjoying himself hahha but it's the classic crying picture and I LOVE IT!

*Our last ride*

Our time in Washington is slowly but surely coming to an end here soon, so we wanted to make sure and get one last bike ride in. We headed to West Seattle on Saturday and just did a short little bike ride because it was really cold out (thank goodness for getting back to warm AZ!) Time spent here has been fun, but we truly miss our family sooooooooooo much and can't wait to settle down our roots in AZ.

This picture is so funny, Jaden kept sticking his feet out and getting his socks stuck on the velcro..silly boy.


Us!


This is my new favorite picture! It's my sweet hubby and little boy loading the dishwasher for mommy...does life get any sweeter?
