Is it really August already? I can't believe how quickly time is flying! What a busy summer it's been. Doug and I were just talking about how interesting it is when you become a parent, its like life before was just a dream. We just have no concept of who we were before Everett. Having him certainly has made me a more "live in the moment" person. I can't look back, because I don't remember! I can't look forward because its too overwhelming! I just have to be here, now, fully engaged in the present. It's a pretty awesome gift we parents get. It almost makes all the diaper changes worth it...almost.
We have a lot of excitement to look forward to this month! The most thrilling of course is watching Everett grow and change, almost daily it seems! He's cuter and cuter (I'm not being annoying either, everyone says so!) He's up on all fours rocking back and forth all the time I'm sure as soon as he gets his momentum up he'll be crawling all over the place! He makes "kissy" noises with his mouth and he loves to play the cough game (he coughs, we cough, he laughs and coughs, so on and so on...). Our new adventure is finger foods, we are still learning that though. I usually find 2 or 3 sweaty Cheerios stuck in his palm at some point during the day.
My best friend since I was tiny was married this past weekend... It was a beautiful wedding and so much fun for Doug and I to get dressed up and have a fancy date night! We also had Doug's 20 year reunion the next night, it was pretty interesting to walk into a room full of "oldies"! I have to say Doug, and my sister Tamara (who was in his class) were the best looking there! I got myself a keeper!
Those were only the first two days of August... We have so much coming up this month, the mayhem never stops. More posts to come!
