Right Now

John Paul went to the zoo and children's museum for the first time this week.  At both he cuddled in for a nap while in the Ergo.  

John Paul has been spending a 10 to 20 minutes a day sleeping (or so I wish) in his co-sleeper.  What an accomplishment!

 Fulton is choosing his own outfits.  Love this monkey/buzz light year combo he choose!

After a day and a half of way too much (remember that bum ankle he had?) T.V./Computer time, I declared Friday a "screen free" day.   At first he cried several times because he wanted to watch a movie and then he was back his normal self -playing with his animals, pushing his toy vacuum  and reading books (even mom's).

Fulton Right Now

Fulton,

   Right now you are becoming more and more of a little boy each and every day.  You are sleeping in a "big boy" bed.  (You need mom or dad to stay in your room until you fall asleep.)  You wake up early and usually ask for a "nack" (snack) right away.  Your days consist of lots of time outside, going on walks, playing cars or with your toy animals, drinking mom's homemade smoothies or chocolate milk, and rough housing with dad.  You like to dance to Johnny Cash, you love to watch Elmo on T.V., and you love to look at pictures of yourself.
   You continue to be very affectionate toward mom and dad.  You repeat almost everything we say;  you are talking like crazy.  You get frustrated if you want to do something and can't.  Sometimes if you're tired, hot, or hungry, you through a tantrum.   
    Right now there is nothing more your dad and I want more than to spend time with you.  We love watching  you play.  We love how you love us and we love that we get to share in this adventure called life with YOU!  

Right Now

Right now Fulton is transitioning to a big boy bed and it is going surprisingly well.

Right now we are preparing for vacation.  This is our first vacation ever. To say we are excited is an understatement.

Right now I cannot put down yet another Beverly Lewis novel.

Right now Bill is finally getting to feel those baby movements I have been feeling for a long time now.  (Baby P the second is kicking hard enough to be felt on the outside now).

Right Now

Right now it's January, and it's cold, and life is good.

Right now I am thinking I have really grown in terms of my profession.  I am less stressed, using time well, and moving in the right direction.

Right now I am dreaming of a paid off house.


Right now I am staying ahead of the game in regards to my project life.

Right now I am thinking my husband is AMAZING... because he is.

Right now my boy is not really a baby, but a toddler.  Learning to be a mama in a different way.  Giving him all my love in ways I can.
