Three weeks before my due date, and after 30 hours of labor I got
Our favorite thing to snack right now are these lovely tortillas. We pan fry them with shredded cheddar cheese to yummy cheesy quesidillas. Michael makes them best. We eat them morning, noon, and night. (Especially night while we watch a show together :])
Being the silly kind of sentimental person that I am, I've been thinking lately about the people who mean the most to me. Maybe because it's Christmastime, maybe because tomorrow is Tim's one year mark on his mission. Anyone who has had a sibling on a mission knows that it is wonderful and it greatly blesses your family. The time really does go by quickly. But it doesn't. And having a brother and a sister gone at the same time! Especially when they are two of your best friends in the world. Well, you miss them. There are times when you miss those moments...
So the moral is- even though I'm all "grown up" and am a wife and a mother with a family of my own... I still need my TT and Rayjuice. I couldn't be more pleased that they are out serving the Lord. But I want them to come home soon, so we can do more of this.
Thanks Jill for the idea for this tag. It is pretty entertaining to do. And very silly.

Michael likes to read XKCD comics. (See http://xkcd.com/) Obviously he has a more highly evolved sense of humor than me. If you have never heard of these, you are probably safe from nerddom. If you have, then no explanation is needed. Oftentimes they are far over my head because I am not privy to inside jokes about LISP and Python. When I do get them, they can be pretty freaking funny, though. I must admit the guy who writes them is a genius. I now know the truth about myself. I am a nerd, through and through, because this is me. Totally and completely me.
On Halloween we had a party with our families to jointly celebrate Cub's first Halloween and my 23rd birthday (which was the day after Halloween). Caleb was a fearsome dragon, and I was Alice in Wonderland. I made both of our costumes on my new sewing machine, and they turned out pretty great if I do say so myself.
Notice Veggie Tales on in the background. Caleb is really into Veggie Tales
Even dragons get kisses from their mommies
I want that camera!Caleb is nine months old now, and I can't believe how big he is! It's gone by so fast. He has become such a little boy. He's so stubborn (like his Mama), and he's becoming independent, or thinks he is anyway. He says Dada now. He has a tooth and can clap his hands. He's decided crawling is dumb and won't do it. He prefers standing, so we think he's just going to go straight to walking.
He can hold books by himself and turn the pages
And eat them
He loves his jumper. Sometimes he jumps himself sleepy.
He went on his first trip out of state. Here he is at In and Out Burger in Las Vegas with Grandma.
