extremely over due

So its been over 5 months since I last posted and seeing as how I have some free time and instead of resting like I should be because I'm super sick, I'm going to update you on Little Man.

In the past 5 months Nene has learned to turn over, crawl, stand, blow kisses, say mama and dada and a whole bunch of other things that I can't understand but he definitely know what he's saying lol... and a full list of other things I can't think of right now. He now weighs 18 pounds, is 29 inches long, has 2 teeth and a full head of hair.

He's been in day care since august and he loves it and I love his day care and they love him so its working out pretty well.

He is just THE most amazing baby EVER -- something I'm pretty sure many moms say about their baby lol-- and I love everything about him.. the smiling, hugging, kissing, cuddling, playing, tantrums, attitude, messes, bath time, I love it all.

He's growing sooooooo fast and sometimes it's sad because I feel like I miss so much. But every time he does something new I'm overwhelmed with happiness and pride and love... even if that means eating a cookie he found on the floor, singing along to "que linda manita", dancing to absolutely any song, or taking out all the dvds from the dvd stand -- and i mean ALL the dvds lol.

You know babies are amazing. The power they have to just brighten your day no matter how much SH*T your going through is just.. out of this world. They give you a real reason to keep going, to stay sane, to want to be able to provide everything they need and want. They make you love your life and realize that at the end of the day.. its all about them.. lol. And most of us wouldn't have it any other way. Although I'm not going to lie a good night's sleep is truly missed lol.

This little boy, this tiny, fragile, silly little boy has made me realize that I can do anything. Without having to rely on anyone else. I'm thankful for that. Not saying that there aren't some amazing people in our lives who we are grateful for.

And now unfortunately I must go because if I don't take some kind of nap I will pass out right here on this desk. I'll try to be back before another 5 months fly by. :)
