and he owns my heart!

Love my baby...I mean....my little boy!

8 months and 10 days....

So this week, Paul left on a business trip, and Heath and I have been spending some quality time together. Not that I don't spend time with him every day, but its different when it's just the two of us in the house. I can't believe what a good boy he is, and how easy it is to be his mom (most of the time). I got some funny shots of him interacting with himself in the mirror...



He was confused, he could see 2 of me


kissing himself


He loves the mirror!

And I love waiting for him to wake up from his nap, he will usually just talk to himself til I come in, or sometimes he "calls" for me, and says "mama" over and over til I come in...it's so adorable!

such a happy boy when he wakes up


Heath's favorite doggy, Izze, who loves to get him up too


I walked in and his legs were stuck! And he thought it was funny!


Look at that crazy morning hair!

He is such a fun little boy, and is crawling all over the place and pulling himself up onto EVERYTHING! He will be walking soon, and that blows my mind! This is such a fun age, he is exploring the world and starting to be so independent. He is changing every day, getting so tall, and he eats like a pig! He loves bananas, and will eat any veggie I give him without complaint...except for peas. For some reason he doesn't like them (like his daddy). Paul has been gone for about 10 days, we miss him, but it will be so good to have him home soon!

We are so excited for the holidays this year! We are going to Ben and Julia's new house for dinner and socializing, and then my grandparents for dessert and socializing. Sometimes its hard trying to get everywhere and see everybody during this time of the year, but somehow we make it all work, and get to spend a little time with everyone. I can't wait for Christmas, it will be Heath's first one, and I'm so excited to see him open presents! I know he won't care, but I still can't wait!

Little sister time was really fun, they spent about 10 days here, and we really had a good time! They said they didn't want to leave, which was really sweet. They are such good girls, and I appreciate all the help they lend! Love you girlies!

Well, better go fix some dinner for the Heath-nater and I, more later.....

Bathtime

gotta keep some sense of privacy

big grin, playing with his bubbles

he loves the bath!


Look at that happy face! I just love giving Heath a bath, he gets so excited when he hears the water running, and starts kicking his legs like he's trying to swim. He splashes and plays in the water, sometimes even gets bubbles, and thinks its great fun! He is too funny....

So my sisters have been here for a couple days, and we are having a blast! They have come to stay with us while my parents are out of town for their anniversary. They are such good girls, and I love having them around. Its a little bit of driving everyday to get them to and from school, but its not too bad, and Izze LOVES them! She gets so sad when we leave for school and I come back without them, and she whines at their bedroom doors til I let her in and she curls up on their beds. Sad huh! But she loves it when I leave to get them, and she jumps all over them, it's too cute. Well, I better keep this short, I can hear Heath talking in his bad, ready to get up for lunch, more later...
