My baby is 8 months old!

Well...my little boy is eight months old day. He just started saying "Da Da" the other day and sometimes I think his little mind of his wants to do more than he can. He hasn't started crawling yet but I think I might lose ten more pounds when he does! He is on the go!

This weekend we are getting away for some much needed family time. I am constantly reminding myself to appreciate my family. At times, it's so easy to get caught up in the "I wish..." syndrome and not simply be thankful for what we have. I can honestly say that I am extremely blessed to have an amazing husband. I love him with all of my heart. I also have one very special little boy who is teaching me to be calm (still working on that), consistent, patient (still working on that too), nurturing, and loving. I guess I'm still working on all of them but I really want to be doing that the rest of my life. I can always strive to be a stronger and more Godly woman. If you haven't done so lately, take a minute to think about a way to express love to your family today...and then go do it!
