Where Does Time Go?

Today C is 20 months old. I can remember looking at the pregnancy test. Has it really been that long?
Here are his stats. He has not been to the doctor and got his weight checked since he was 18 months. On our scale he weights about 24lbs. He's in Pampers size 5. He runs everywhere he goes! He has 16 teeth. Two crystal blue eyes, two ears, a nose aka 'honk-honk', well you get the point. He's growing up so fast!! He's not my little baby anymore. Although, last night he let me hold him like a baby and 'bottle feed' him his milk. (he was not feeling well) So I savored those few minutes.
C has began talking quite a bit in the past month. While we were at the beach he picked up, thank you, please, and uh-oh. They sound a little more like-"ga oo", "meeze", and "oh-oh", but he knows when to use them.
He was so cute the other day, Mark handed him something and with out prompting he said, "ga-oo, Bak"...He made me so proud! Please is the harder one, and uh-oh, well we hear that all the time. He has learned how to unbuckle his car seat. He mimics what we do or say. The other day, he unbuckled his car seat and I said 'Ugh, C you can't do this!' He says...ugh! right back at me!
He can reach things off the counter now. He loves to play with keys.

Just because I'm a proud Mommy, I'm going to put all this words that he says now.

The next step is two or more word phrases. He's doing those sometimes, but not very often.

C's favorite things to do are sit on the tractor. Sit in the boat. Eat. Swing. Be outside. Swim-with his swimmies he will spin around, and lay on his back. And do 'motorboat' in the water! He loves chocolate, cookies and Popsicles. He like grapes, apples, cheese, gold fish-'ticky', pretzels, peanut butter sandwiches and pb crackers. Likes shoes-mainly flip flops. He has learned to click his tongue. He loves his family, he gets excited when we turn on the street to get to my parents house! Likes riding his bike and fire truck-inside. Drawing. Dancing. Loves being tickled. He knows fishing poles are for fishing-he says 'ticky'!!! He has learned to blow up his swimmies. He also likes to help with laundry, he will get the clothes in the basket and bring them to the laundry room. He's a little monkey and loves to climb, he will be on the kitchen table in .3 seconds.
<---Rice crispies-the box!


He does not like sitting still. Taking naps or being told 'NO'. He also has a temper, and is very hard headed. He will RUN away from you if he has something on his mind and you don't want him to do it or have what he has. He knows when I sing certain songs, that that means he has to go to sleep, they are his 'sleep songs'.

C has been such a great joy to all of us! He's so smart and really is a wonderful blessing to our family. Lindsey will call and ask when I'm coming to her house, because she wants to see C.
It's hard to believe he's almost two years old. Seems like this year has gone by faster than last year.

Three Wide In Turn Four

Yes, I married a redneck, so sometimes I think like one. While this has nothing to do with racing, this is the best I could come up with. Before I got pregnant with Caden, I remember hearing people talk about their kids sleeping in bed with them, and thinking---Heck, NO! There is no way. I have a hard enough time sleeping with my six foot tall husband in my bed, there is no way I would consider adding someone else. So, when I had Caden I stuck to that. We didn't do "co-sleeping". His room was attached to our room, so we let him sleep in his crib from day two, at home. The first night I was a little leary, so Mom helped me a bunch! And he did so well. He'd sleep from about 9:30pm until about 3:30am, I'd nurse him, and he'd go right back to sleep, in his bed. Then he's wake back up around 5:30am or 6:00am, when Michael was getting ready for work. Then he would snuggle up with me in my bed and go back to sleep until 8:00am or 9:00am. Pretty good for a newborn...

Fractured Fairy Tales

OK, so most of you know we are no longer going to our church here in Dawonville. But that's a different story for a very different day. Anyways, the church I've been going to, I've really enjoyed. Our current series is 'Fractured Fairy Tales'. Numbers 80:7-12. He says that fairy tales are great, but they leave us thinking we should all have happy endings. That is not the way life is. Last week was about Jacob, how he was not the one that made the bad decisions, but he was 'fractured' because of his brother's choices. God uses evil for good. Sometimes others make our fairy tale fractured. This week we talked about Moses, how he had his own idea of how he wanted things to be and he didn't obey God, therefore he fractured his fairy tale. Life is a roller coaster, no matter how much we love God. We tend to want to push the blame, or push it to the limits. When we go through our fractures, we want to blame God, or others. We are so kin to Adam and Ev...
