11 months

I just can't believe that my baby boy is going to turn 11 months old tomorrow! The past year has just flown by! This time last year I was beginning to have high blood pressure and was about to be put on bed rest for the remainder of my pregnancy. How much has changed! I am having a lot of fun planning for G's first birthday party - FUN!

We have really been enjoying some nice weather lately, which has allowed us to get to out of the house more. I got a Fort Worth zoo membership as a baby shower gift (thank you WP friends!) and so G and I have been walking at the zoo about once a week. G doesn't look at the animals much, but he loves watching the kids and he likes to see the penguins swim. We enjoyed some wonderful visits recently from Chad's mom and later from Chad's dad and stepmom.

Let me tell you - this boy is BUSY BUSY! I can see now why most moms stop nursing around 12 months - he can barely be still long enough to nurse! He is all over the place. Keeping an eye on him is a full time job!

Most of you know that Chad has quit his job and is looking for a new one - so in the meantime we are all enjoying a lot of wonderful quality time together!! And I am enjoying having some help with G and help around the house. I'll certainly let you know when Chad finds the right job. Hopefully then we can sell our house and move close to his work (and hopefully closer to church too).
