October

October has been such a crazy, busy month for us, which has definitely had it's ups and downs. The month started off at a down, with me having a car accident. We were luck in that it could have been a lot worse. Julianna and I were both in the car and someone came straight into the side of us. They went straight in through the back.....right were Julianna was sitting in her seat. The whole thing happened so fast and all I could remember was hearing Julianna screaming hysterically. I jumped out of the car to get her out but I couldn't open the door. Her seat had also been knocked pretty badly so I couldn't see her. I started bawling my eyes out and some people came over to help me. Together we were able to pull her out through the front and miraculously there was not a scratch on her, in fact as soon as she found out she had an audience, she immediately stopped crying and started putting on a show for them. Unfortunately though the same couldn't be said for the car, it was completely totaled. On the upside though we got quite a nice insurance payout (more than we paid for the car) and we were able to buy a new one. Ironically Jonathan and I had been pricing up SUV's for a while but couldn't afford one without going into debt, but thanks to our insurance payout and a great deal we were able to find, we now have our SUV, so everything worked out fantastically.

So after all the drama with the accident and getting a new car, we finished the month with Julianna's first birthday. Her birthday was on the Friday and she had her party with all her friends on the Saturday.

That night we also had our Boot n Loot


I just can't believe how quickly the last year has flown by, but at the same time it feels like Julianna has been with us forever. She has changed so much over this past year and is now walking, talking and LOTS of singing. She has so much personality and is quite the comedian.
