10 months. I can't believe it. He is so much fun. He is so INTO EVERYTHING! It's nuts.

He has 6 teeth now, is a master crawler, but prefers to pull himself up and walk while hanging on to stuff. My mom & dad got him his walker dinosaur a couple weeks ago and he loves it! I can't imagine it being too much longer before he walks.

He still jibber jabbers all the time. When his room is dark, except for his turtle lights or when we are next to the Christmas tree, he raises his hand and talks and ooohhhhs, like he is telling a story. He also makes this noise that sounds like E.T. It's pretty funny.

Oh, and we are done nursing... This is another post itself. But, I will say that it was a natural end and the baby hasn't seemed to mind one stinkin bit. :::tear:::

Weekend & Stuff































I haven't blogged in a while because my laptop has been acting really strange. We thought I lost a lot my pics and music a
couple weeks back because I haven't backed anything up since before the baby was born. BUT, it is working again. (whew!!)
This weekend we had two major firsts for the baby.

1. He spent the night at my parents and John & I had a night out. Like, a whole entire night!
2. He saw the ocean up close (not just driving by on the way to my folks) and touched sand & ocean.

Here are some pics from the weekend.. (I can't get my pics to load where I want them to. So annoying. So, yeah, they are up top).

Gracias!

Thanksgiving was a success! We had about 40 people over and tons of food. Baby J did great, except he was not up for napping with all the excitement. In honor of Thanksgiving day & my love for lists, I decided to type up some things I am thankful for.

1. Coconut creamer (my fave)
2. My husband. He worked SO hard to get everything ready for Turkey Day. He is always there when I need him.
3. Online shopping. I love it. It makes my life easier. And with free shipping, I mean, come on!!
4. My awesome girlfriends. I have the best. You shouldn't even argue. As one of my favorite band sings, "Oh I'm a lucky man, to count on both hands, the ones I love..."
5. Lysol wipes. Let's just not go into my craziness, but they make me feel a lot better.
6. I'm thankful I have a job that provides free benefits for my entire family.
7. My family. It's huge. It's not perfect. It's loving. It's always there for you.
8. I guess, my dogs. I do love them. I'm not sure I am thankful for them, but they are looking at me right now. So they are peer pressuring me to add them.
9. Baby J's walker. Really, it is the best. And it is perfect for our house.
10. Last, but certainly not least, BABY J. Awe. I am so, so thankful for my little boy.
