Our precious sweet baby boy is 8 months old today. I just do not believe it. Where has the time gone? He is the love of my life and the light in my world, such a sweet little soul. He is getting so big bigger. He is much smaller than Boog was at this age. He is my tiny little man. His personality is really shining through. He can say a few words, well...not to anyone in particular, but he says Mama, Dada, and Hi! I really think the hi has a purpose because he can wave and say hi at the same time. He claps and we have started the baby signing with him. He has not signed anything back but it is just a matter of time. Boog started signing to us when he was about 10 months old.
Today, we go into surgery with Tutti-Frutti at 10am cst. Please remember him in your prayers, we are nervous as can be expected. Nothing major, out patient, but surgery none the less. He is having a hernia repair. We have to be at the hospital downtown by 8am and not sure when we will be home. I will update tonight.
Thanks for your prayers. They are much appreciated! Have a great day.
By 3, Daddy could do no wrong. He wanted to be with Daddy no matter what. He was Daddy's main helper, his shadow and his best friend. Where has the blonde baby boy gone? This year would change his life forever. This is the year he would become a big brother. I will not lie, I had my doubts. He would talk about the baby when he wanted to. He said no, he did not want to be a big brother and that the baby could live with someone else. I was fearful that my baby would be forever changed, scarred in some way, his childhood ruined. This year, his personality really started to shine through. He became more outspoken, not as shy...more outgoing, funnier, quite the character. He became the life of the party.
My, look how he has changed this year...3 was a big year. He lost his baby of the house status, becoming a big brother, started going into his music classes alone, started going into (and enjoying) kid's church on his own. Daddy is his best friend but over the last month, Mommy has moved back into his favorite person list, not really that I ever left, I think I just had to share the spotlight for a while. He really loves his friends and cannot wait to see them. He loves play dates but still really enjoys playing alone. 
Wow, he has grown up so much this last year. He is the most fantastic big brother ever. We could not have asked for that transition to go more smoothly. He absolutely LOVES his baby brother. 
This child is sweet, loving, caring, gentle and you just would not believe how funny he is. He is super smart too. Do I even need to add that he is absolutely gorgeous to boot?! Yea, I didn't think so...
