Do you have any idea how much fun a baby's 1st Halloween is? There are so many cute outfits and pajamas. It helps that cats are a traditional symbol for Halloween. We might be forced to have Halloween week at our house.
I think I may make Stowa's costume. I'm 99% sure she's going to be a kitten. And if she is a kitten, I shall go as the crazy cat lady. Itchy can be Animal Control.

Animal Crossing City Folk
Anyone play Animal Crossing? I need a friend with different fruit. I have oranges that I can send! I can even send a coconut, if you don't have one of those yet.
This isn't really that crazy right?
Geez it's been forever. My free time just isn't what it use to be.
We're still here in FIL's house. He was in India for the first 12 days that we were here. It was nice. We had the house to ourselves. He got back on Monday and he's driving us crazy. He's mad because we won't let him do anything with Stowa. And we are constantly telling him what not to do with her. Sorry dude but seriously, if you'd listen the first time I ask you not to do something (like holding her 3 inches away from the tv) it wouldn't feel like we're always correcting you. FIL is like a toddler. You have to tell him about 1,395 times before he gets it. It's frustrating. We need to get out of here.
On that note, Itchy has an interview lined up for next week that seems very promising. Details to be shared when there is something worth sharing. We're both pretty excited about the prospsect though. Not just because it means getting out of here either. It seems like this may be a really good job for Itchy.
Now on to my own brand of crazy. I ordered new bedding for Stowa. For her big girl bed. Which she should move to in oh about 1.5 to 2 years. Yep. I couldn't help it. I saw the accessories (picture frames, growth chart, etc) when I was pregnant with her. I wanted them. I waited patiently until they were on clearance. And I had a coupon. But my local store didn't have one of the pieces. I was forced to order online. As I was searching for all of the pieces I discovered that these accessories were actually accessories to an entire bed set. I just thought that they were a set of really cute frames. The bedding wasn't on sale though. I ordered all of the accessories. This was back in May people. Probably a year after seeing them for the first time.
I have been stalking the bedding ever since. I didn't want to pay full price. I'm too cheap for that. I saw sales come and go. It never got to a price I was comfortable paying. Until last week.
It's perfect and awesome. If they made it in a queen I'd get it for my own bed. In 2 years when Stowa moves into a big girl bed she is going to have the most perfect bedding her mother could ever want.
Seriously guys, it has kittens on it. It's purple and teal with kittens on it.

A few things
Itchy is now officially Dr. Itchy! Yay! I really couldn't be happier for him or more proud of him. He's going to be an amazing vet. Once he finds a job...
We moved. We're currently living with FIL. We decided on the 4th that we were going to move on the 7th. Nothing quite like packing and moving everything you own in 3 days! The reason for the sudden move? FIL decided to go to India. He left on the 9th and Dr. Itchy wanted to see him before he left. There was a little fear that he may not come back (willing staying there or being detained). So we packed like crazy people and were able to move on the 8th. Of course now I can't find anything.
We'll be here until Itchy finds a job and then we'll move to where ever the job is. Moving again in a couple of weeks makes me want to vomit.

Almost done
Itchy is officially almost done with school. He has to finish up a few things but he finished his last scheduled shift this morning at 4 am.
Tiny arms
Stowa learned how to wave last night. She flails her tiny little chubby arm around and smiles as though she's never been happier to see you. The first person she waved at? Dwight from "The Office".
This morning she has been waving at the cats every time she sees them. She wouldn't do it so that Itchy could see it though.
