I'm Already There

One day Mark and I will be able to spend Valentines consistently together. Since we were engaged, we have had an off and then on kind of deal with Valentines day it seems.

In just roughly 3.5 months, Mark will be home for 2 wonderful weeks, and we are so excited!

Regardless, a thousand miles apart, Mark seems to do something great. This year, it was a nice "good morning" text and a yummy surprise:

A little peepshow from our girls weekend trip to Vegas/Garth Brooks concert:

Why?

David really is not showing any interest in crawling. Sometime I am grateful for that though. Why crawl when he can just roll to get what he wants or do the "toad" (as Katie calls it)

(Look at those thighs, goodness!)

Cowboy Up!

I am headed to Vegas with my sisters-in-law and mother-in-law for a Garth Brooks concert tonight! I am really excited for this very quick vacation. I'm so grateful that David will be in good hands...that's right, he is not going, but is staying with the Young Family!

Sweet dreams

I've mentioned before Davids weird and creative sleeping positions, and today is no different! When I looked at the monitor, this is what I saw:

Thirsty?

I try not to give David too much straight juice because of the sugar level. But while in Maryland, my mom had some grape juice. Once David set his eyes on it, he had to have it.

8 months and growing like a champ!

David is 8 months old today! I don't know where the time has gone, but I'm partially glad it is going fast. David weighed in at 20 pounds. He is rolling all over, but really isn't showing much interest in crawling. He can scoot on his back, and twist & turn okay on his tummy; I hope he learns fast because I don't plan on carrying him all the time when he turns 1 :-) He sleeps great, eats like a champion and is growing like a weed. We love you so much David and are sure glad you're our little one! Happy 8 months handsome!

I thought I would do something different. Instead of just no pants, no clothes period! He loves putting anything and everything in his mouth, loves pulling my hair, grabbing at his diaper (little boys are a whole different ball game), playing with Max (it's not too late Katie, I can still bring him back!).

Love you!

Lemons

Mark has wanted me to give David a lemon for quite a while. I, obviously, was skeptical. But nonetheless, last night while at IHOP with the family, David had his first squeeze of lemon.
