Slow Down

I have not been good at this blog thing but I will keep at it until I get it right. This last month we had my Mother in law in town and it was so nice to see Andrew bonding with her. He loves his Baba.
Andrew is so silly, he loves it when i get the camera out and he thinks that after the flash is when he needs to smile. Or he will be looking really cute then pull a silly face. I guess he takes after me more than I thought, here are a couple of faces he pulled.
He LOVES watching Shrek and Baby Einstein with Mommy and is still working on crawling. He scoots or rolls to wherever he wants to go but he loves walking with my hands. I dont think he will crawl for very long before he walks and I am not rushing him because he is growing too fast. He is not even supposed to be as advanced as he is for being born 7 weeks early so his Dr said to enjoy it. He is only 8 months for heavens sake! He is all boy, he likes to make different sounds and growl's all the time. He laughs after he farts and LOVES his Daddy. He is such a happy boy and so smart!
Andrew has 2 teeth now and thinks its funny when we brush them for him. He is on a solid schedule now, he sleeps from 9pm to 7am and naps 2 times a day. I love it! We are having fun with different foods and trying new things.
I am so  blessed to have such a great little family. Paul is an awesome Father and Husband and is so dedicated to make it possible for me to stay home full time. I love that determination from him. In the mean time I work at Carrabbas and am so blessed to be there because my schedule allows me to stay home with Andrew in the day and when Daddy gets home I go work for 5 hours and make great money! We are able to save so much by not having to pay for day care and we know that our little prince is in the best care with Mommy and Daddy! The only down side to that is Paul and I dont see as much of each other as we used to, but I think through it all we have grown closer because we have to make time to communicate and find a few minutes here and there. They say distance makes the heart grow fonder and I think that is true, I find myself missing him more and more each day and when we are together we have so much fun. I know my love for him has grown through this experience and cant wait to have our family grow!
