Sand is so coooool! And summer in JAN??
But I want to go ALL the way in!
Awww. our babies :)Whew! Jan 2009 has been a crazy new start to the year! The weather...tho I'm lovin it, feels a bit more like Colorado than Portland, snow and sunshine and brrrr!! No complaining here, but it is out of the norm. We, sadly, had to say goodbye to Indica a few weeks ago. It was SOOO hard, he woke one morning and couldn't straighten his front R leg, and his back legs, already rendered pretty useless, he couldn't walk at all. A TOUGH and very emotional decision. HE had an amazing life of 14yrs, and leaves us with SOO many fun, funny, and great memories!
Anyhooo, on a brighter note; Brayden is amazing and more fun...yes...again, even MORE fun! I think this is becoming a trend...can't wait for next month! He's rolling all over the place, is hillarious in the walker we recently got, or should I say Runner! HE understands certain words, and is all about gadgets, and LOVES an audience. He says "mum" often, but totally randomly. He can feed himself tiny bits of things..good when its edible, not so good when its DIRT, or a hairball! He can spend all day "walking" and not so much time just sitting or being held, he wants to be on the go all of the time. I think it might be slowing his "actual mobility" tho, because he doesn't want to spend anytime trying to figure out how to get around for himself. If he can't be upright, he thinks it sucks!! He actually has his first cold right now, which I found out today is pnemonia and an ear infection, its HORRIBLE to see! I can't believe how happy he is, I'd be crying and pissed! No one warned me how INSANELY stressfull motherhood is, I feel the gray hairs making their home in my scalp!! UGH! But we'll pull though this, and I'm so amazed how happy he is...biggest ham ever! Hes so entertaining, my favorite is his little exploratory index finger!! Life continues to be great through the ups and downs, but I AM feeling a warm vacation is due here pretty soon. Maui...here we come?
