Busy, busy!

Fall is such a busy time of year, but also a fun and exciting time too! We have had our hands full preparing for the little guy's birthday party coming up this Saturday. We are hoping for a good turnout even though I know that it will be impossible for everyone to come because of the upcoming holiday. I have been watching the weather everyday... and getting a little more worried everyday. Right now, there is a 40% chance of rain... that would not be good for the outdoor activities that I have planned! But, hey.. that's what umbrellas are for, right? And, there will be a lot going on inside too! Just pray for no downpours!

It is so unbelievable to me that L is about to be a whole year old. It makes me so emotional to even think about it. I have been retracing those days leading up to his birth in my mind this week.. all the worry, all the excitement....

He is growing so much. It seems that he can do or say something new each day. He is still doing his 3 legged crawl ALL OVER the house, pulling up to his feet and walking around furniture, standing on his own for a second or two, and saying "hey" "dada" "mama" and "nana." He says dada and nana much more than mama right now.. but before long, I'm sure that will change and I'll be wishing he would call on his daddy sometimes! :o) Oh, these are the most precious days. We are so blessed to live this life! I am LOVING every second of it!
