Anniversary

Oh geez, I am so caught up with work stuff that I forgot to mention that it is our wedding anniversary today. We have been married for three years! Chris gave my beautiful opal (Adam's birthstone) earrings. I feel truly blessed to have married a great guy that puts up with my neurotic ways. It has been the best three years of my life & I'm looking forward to many more.

Stepping Out of the Boat

One of my favorite sermons is the one about Peter walking on water with Jesus. He stepped out of the boat even when he was doubtful. He took a leap of faith. He only bagan to sink when he took his eyes off of Jesus. I oftened think about this story & how it pertains to my life. We all need to take out of the boat when we feel that God is calling us to do something. We can not be ruled by fear. If we are doing what God wants us to do, then he is going to take care of everything. I have been thinking about this because I really feel like I am supposed to be stepping out of the boat and casting all my fears & doubts to him, keeping my eyes directly on God. He has never failed me. I am ready to get my feet wet.

Happy Birthday Adam!

Yesterday was my baby's 1st birthday. I am now officially a mom of a toddler. I took the day off and we had a lot of fun! We went to breakfast with my mom & sister, then we went to Professor Toy & picked out some stuff. We went shopping & got him two pairs of adorable tennis shoes, went to lunch and then went home for a nap. When Chris got home we went to dinner. Every time someone said Happy Birthday to Adam he would respond, "Thank you" it was soo cute. All in all it was a busy day and I am glad that I got to spend the day with him. We waved good bye to the bottles as I packed them up last night. Will post pics later.

On to Bigger & Better Things (Part 1)

Chris & I decided that when Adam turned 1 that we would eliminate the bottle. So we have been slowly transitioning from the bottle to a sippy cup. It makes me a little sad though because by giving him a bottle I still feel like he is a little baby, which is so sweet. He is handling it really well. What I really can't wait for is to be told that it is ok for him to have regular milk, instead of formula, which should happen at his Dr appt on Friday. I am looking foward to spending the whole day with him tomorrow and taking him to Professor Toy to pick out whatever he wants. : D

Adam's Birthday Party

So last Saturday was Adam's Superhero 1st birhtday party & I think that is was a success. I want to thank my friends for being such good sports and allowing me to use their "mug shots" for the FBI Most Wanted List. It was hilarious & everyone loved it. Adam was really good throughout the party, even without a nap. Beatrice's Wonder Woman costume was so adorable. Chris dressed up as Batman & freaked out Adam until he realized that it was just his dad. All in all, it turned out really well. I am taking Thursday the 16th off (his actual bday) to spend the day with him. I can't wait! Here are some pics from the party.
