More pictures in the grass






1st time to sit in the grass


September, A Month of Firsts

This has been such a busy (and difficult) month for our family. Daniel has been teething, plus he also had a virus while he was teething. But it looks like we're through it now, so I hope we'll have some peace and quiet for a little while. Here are a list of firsts in Daniel's little life that have happened in September: 1st tooth (by the way, he has 2 teeth now), 1st words ("da-da"), 1st time to roll off the bed (that happened Monday - so sad), 1st time to vomit (also, so sad), 1st time to start sitting up on his own, 1st time to have carrots, 1st time to sit and play in the grass, and first time to see Uncle J.D. (he's back from army training to visit the family a while). See how busy we've been?? Daniel with Uncle J.D.

Daniel with his first tooth!



My First Blog

Today is my first day to ever have a blog. I finally decided to try to do one (even if I'm on the only one who ever sees it).

Let's see...today I plan to create a blog (check), do some laundry and FOLD it, straighten up my room a bit (maybe even clean my bathroom...but that might be pushing it), cook supper, plant my two dwarf crape myrtles, AND take care of my beautiful baby boy!

Speaking of Daniel (yes, this blog will mostly be about him and my life as his mother!), last night we found that he had a tooth! His very first one! It has just barely popped through. I thought he had been teething because he has been so fussy and not sleeping well at night, but I had no idea the tooth would come through so fast! I was SO excited. He is just over 5 months and I thought it would be a little while longer before he got one. Phillip said he thought he saw the tooth a couple of days ago (but of course he didn't mention it to me, which puts him very high on the "maddened-mommy" scale). I will post a picture of Daniel that I took this morning (just knowing that he has a tooth in his mouth will make this picture more exciting...even though you can't actually see the tooth...yes, what can I say? I'm a new mom).
