What Do I Say After That?

I've sat down to write a few posts in the past week since my last one, but nothing seemed "right". Every topic seemed cavalier compared to what my two friends were going through. It seemed almost rude to follow up a post about two babies in the hospital with a post about what my silly baby is doing. My heart goes out to these two families and I’ve also felt a tinge of guilt for having a healthy child myself. Which, I know, is silly. But I love these friends dearly and keep praying that both kiddos will be ok. Seeing these parents deal with what they have been has made me reevaluate what is important in life and spend as much time as possible with my loved ones.

Speaking of my loved ones – look at these two sweet guys:

The taller one and I celebrated our 3rd wedding anniversary last week.  Well, we had it.  We're celebrating this week.  Our usual babysitters were in California visiting my brother so we postponed our dinner out and gift-giving a few days.  We stick with the traditional wedding gifts, so we'll see what leather gifts we each come up with this year...
 
Oh and we broke our anniversary tradition.  (Can you call it a tradition if you've only done it two years?)  We've watched our wedding video every year on our anniversary.  But neither one of us remembered this year.  At all.  Until two days later, at which point it was too late.  The tradition was broken.  I think we'll pick it up again next year.  Or not.
 
As for the shorter little dude.  He will be TEN months old in a few days.  Two days to be exact.  (Where did the time go?)  He decided he'd start walking this weekend!  At first he'd just walk from the ottoman to the couch (2 steps).  And by walk, I mean teeter.  And then last night he definitely took 4 steps to give me a hug!  I love my little man.  And I love my big man.  I'm a lucky girl having these two guys in my life.  They make me smile.
