November 25, 2009

My baby boy is now 8 months old. I don't know whether to cry or be excited about the many new things we learn on a daily basis. We almost have one whole tooth cut and another one has started its way out :)

He is officially mobile and wearing me out! I lost him for the first time in our little home the other day and I about had a heart attack!! He was playing in the living room with all his toys while I was cooking dinner. I suddenly realized that it got very quite. He was GONE! I started calling his name trying to remain calm (keep in mind I did not know he could crawl much less be this quick) and I hear his sweet little giggle coming from his bathroom. I went into the bathroom and he was sitting next to the bathtub playing with the shower curtain. Needless to say all doors in my house now remain closed and very soon there will be gates in all entry ways that have tile. All cabinets have been secured and all outlets have been capped. I have officially baby proofed the home.

Thursday is Jacob's first Thanksgiving. I have made sure that he has a turkey dinner and sweet potatoes in baby form ready to go! I just hope that I can taste the deliciousness that comes from my mothers kitchen when she and my grandmother get together. You seen I have decided to come down with a head cold that has left a funk in my mouth that you wouldn't believe. God please let me taste this food or I will slip into a great depression until Christmas.

I am gearing up to be Santa this year. I am thrilled. I love Christmas and I am so excited about Jacob's first Christmas. I will not be jumping into the crazy "black Friday" crowd this year, Thank God! I have already ordered all his big items and they have already come in. I just have a few small things to get and I am done with Santa this year! I am so excited to see his little face with all those lights, bright bows and paper, and all those new toys!

For those of you wondering; Jacob and I are doing FINE! We are moving along with our happy life as if nothing as ever changed! We are happy and healthy and trusting in God :)
