Walking boy

Okay, so it's a bit wobbly, and his pants are too long so he doesn't stay up very long...but my baby boy is learning to walk! I can't get over the fact that he's a walker now!!

It's a good day to be excited about life

For 2 reasons:

First, tonight I'm having my very first scrapbooking party with the ladies from my church. Ladies nights with them are always so much fun, but I just think this one is going to top them all because we're going to get creative and make pretty things. And oh man do I have a lot to scrapbook about!

Second, I got these through my etsy email and can't wait to receive the package in the real mail!!













A HUGE thanks to Beth (sweetteaandpickles) on etsy (also has a blog at sweetteaandpickles.blogspot.com) for making all of these awesome treats for Wesley's first birthday party!

I can't believe my baby boy is already about to turn 1! It's so cliché I know, but he's growing up way too fast! He even started walking on Monday! I'm trying to get a video of it, but every time he sees the camera he drops to his knees and crawls to try an steal it from me! He's still quite wobbly, but getting so much better every day! I blame it all on those Haling kids! :) Every time we see them they teach Wesley something new! Darn them for making my baby boy smarter every time he sees them! haha Obviously I'm only kidding, because I love to see how he interacts with them. Wesley sure does love both Kaitlyn and Miles, and they show every time I see them just how great they are going to be with their new baby brother Trevor!

Speaking of Trevor, just an update. I haven't heard from Jill since I got home yesterday, but Wednesday night he was doing so well! They took the tube out and Jon and Jill both got to have some snuggle time, FINALLY! :) Praise God! Continue to pray for him that his throat heals from the tube being there so long and that he begins to eat well. The sooner that happens, the sooner he can go home! What a blessing that baby boy already is!

Okay, now off to play with my handsome little man before his naptime comes!
