Time flies...

When you're having fun, but usually it flies by even faster when you're busy. Boy have I been busy. Between a sick baby, an injured husband, and a sick dog its a wonderful I haven't aged twenty years. Or maybe I have. :-)

It seems like every time I turn around something else is going on. First my sweet little boy started day care and that lead to him getting a cold that lead to an ear infection. That was followed by my sweet dog, Lieu getting her own ear infections and heart worms that cost over $300 in vet bills. To top it all off, my husband got hit in the face with a fire extinguisher followed by an infection from a spider bite that ended with a pulled muscle in his back. So if it could go wrong in the last month it has.

So besides what I am hoping is a minor issue with the broken leg from four years ago things are quieting down. The holidays are approaching quickly. And I know the next few months will fly by as well.

My two-year anniversary is in less two weeks. I can believe it. I've been married for two years and it's been a crazy two years. Basic training, AIT, a pregnancy, moving away from home to a new place, giving birth to a beautiful little boy and watching him grow, and falling more and more in love with the most amazing man.

In a month is Halloween, my favorite holiday. Angel's first Halloween. I can't wait to decorate and buy his first costume and take him treat or treating. Not so he can get lots of candy, but so I can show him off to the world.

In just over two months my husband will be twenty-four followed shortly by my own thirty-third birthday. Growing up and getting older. Not too mention it will be the first birthday for each of us as parents. A whole new spin on celebrating your own life.

Then comes Christmas. Angel's first Christmas. I can't wait to teach him the magic of Santa Claus and sugar cookies and decorating the tree and singing the songs. Not the presents, though we will enjoy spoiling him, but the other joys that come with the holiday.

Then the big day! Angel's first birthday! A celebration of a life that began with a rough few days and has become the most amazing little boy a mom can ask for. In less the four months I will celebrate my greatest miracle and begin the journey of his second year and all the amazing things he will teach me then.

It's going to be a crazy few months ahead but I promise to try and keep up with the blog more. And thanks to my two favorite bloggers who also posted today. You kicked my butt in to gear and I appreciate that. Oh and congratulations! To Lindsey for your amazing blessing and to John for your own blessing.

Off to enjoy my life and see if I can get it to slow down just a bit...

  2. These next few month should be interesting so much celebrating to do. I couldn't have asked for a better person to grow old with and share my life with. Having our baby boy has been the most difficult but joyest experience and I'm glad I am sharing it with you. Te amo mi amor.
