Well 2 more weeks and my little boy will no longer be aged in months....it is bittersweet for this momma, I can't believe it was almost 1 year ago I was holding the newest love of my life. I look back on this last year and I am so proud of my little guy! I watched the first time he rolled over on the camera and remembered the first time he looked at Chris and said Dada and how he never used Mama on anyone else! I am surprized at the ability this small person has to make me so happy and so frustrated at the same time. :) I love my son more today and I will love hime more tomorrow too I am sure. Chris and I decided to make a photo collage of the last 12 mo of his life and I am excited to get started! We are celebrating early though with my family coming in the 10th of September. We are having a big party too I have estimated about 50 people are going to be there although about 20 of them are children. We rented a bounce house and are going to go swimming too! I am excited because we decided to have the party catered so we can both enjoy ourselves and mingle at the party and keep an eye on Austin.
Austin is not walking yet but I am kinda greatful because I already have to chase is little crawling body around not sure I am ready to chse a walking kid around :). He does climb on everything though so I have to watch him and make sure he doesn't get hurt. Childproofing has begun but we are slacking on getting it done :( I really need to get on it with the child proofing. Austin loves to open and shut the cabinet doors too! Austin is facinated with electronics right now, if he sees a laptop he beelines it to the computer and tries to take. Austin has words he uses now that actually have meanings. He says mama, dada, adone (all done), mo/ma (more) and da (dog or down) he talks a lot of gibberish too.
Daddy and Austin are spending more time together too, they play in the pool and with Austins toys. Austin still loves to hang upside down too so Dad likes to swing him up and down! Austin and Mommy read together too, his favorite books are I Love you Through and Through, and I Love You Because You are You. Austin loves to turn the pages for Mommy.
I am one lucky parent I have a fairly easy going kid, but boy is he mobile!
