Another month and a 1/2 gone by!!!

I am horrible at keeping up with this blog and don’t ever know where to start when I type a new one! Jake is practically running now! He has been taking steps since June 24th! Around 9 ½ months! He just took off and started walking a few weeks ago! It’s so crazy to see my little baby walking around the house! Like a little toddler now! It’s all he wants to do… and his favorite new game is to play chase and walk as fast as he can and hide! Too cute. I love that boy so much I can hardly breathe! He is eating more and more finger foods too. He still loves his baby food but he likes to try new things and I know when he doesn’t like it – he shakes his head no and spits it out! HAHA! He’s not real big on textures… I can definitely tell that. I’m sure he will outgrow it though!

Josh and I have just been working – same ol’ same. Nothing new. His sister got married a few weekends ago … that’s about it! Lil’ Jake looked so cute in his pearl snap shirt and jeans. We took that off right after the ceremony though b/c it was way too hot for that! He showed everyone his dancing skills on the dance floor – he had fun!

I don’t really have too much to talk about – all we do is work and stay super busy and on the weekends see friends sometimes and stay home and catch up on housework! Fun fun! I’m really struggling on staying positive right now… sometimes life just gets ya down… but I’ve been praying and hopefully the Lord will help me with all this! I’ve seen a lot of people lose loved ones recently and it has really made my heart ache for them =( Life is too short and we need to tell the people we love- just how much we love them every single day.

On a happier note – lil man is about to turn 1!!! Omg! Where has time gone?! Pretty sure I will cry my eyes out that week! I think we will have a party at the house – with hot dogs and cake ;) Nothing too fancy! I just can’t get motivated to plan!? Maybe b/c I am sad he is turning 1?? Haha!

Here are a whole bunch of random pics over the past few weeks...
