8 months old...how did this happen

Seth 8 Months Old



So one day I woke up at about 6:00 in the morning, got in the car, went to the hospital, and about 9 long hours later our beautiful 7 pound boy was born....

Then I blinked for ONE SECOND (seriously one second) and he was 8 months old. How did this happen. I guess I am going to have to stop blinking.

I really can't believe how fast my life is going by. I feel like I am on a race track, begging everyone around me to slow down before it is over. However, I am on the race track shouting at the top of my lungs and no one seems to hear me.

Back to the topic at hand...my ever evolving, extremely handsome man in my life. Okay I mean, one of the two men in my life.

Seth has been with us for roughly 248 day now. And I can seriously say that there hasn't been a day that has gone by that I haven't kissed him, loved him, smelled him, kissed his open mouth (I can do that, I am the mother) pinched his cheeks, hands, and nose. Wow, now that I am righting this all out...I kind of feel like I have tortured the boy.

Seth, you are my pure joy. Thank you for all that you bring into our lives...here are a few of the things that happened this last month:


  • You developed a love for every door stop in our house.

  • You had the ability to get all 4 of your front top teeth to come in at the same time.

  • You have perfected your army crawl and getting around the house in record speed.
  • You signed your first sign, "More" of course. Good Job Scrubby!

  • You were forced to sleep through the night, when mom and dad let you cry when you would wake up. (they didn't want to do it, but they had too)

  • If even possible, you became more yummy and lovable then you were any previous month

Seth, it has been 248 days of bliss...Thanks!

Where does the time go? I thought I had Aven yesterday. I just watched Lyza's dance, that was the cutest thing I have ever seen and I have to say she was by far the best.

Seriously girls watch out...we have a charmer on our hands. I mean could he possibly be any cuter? And that beanie...don't even get me started on that beanie. Oh I love my setherbugs!

I can't believe how much your kids look alike to me, but of course a very girl and boy version. Time does fly. Wait until your third.:)

What beatiful, beautiful children you have! And how blessed are they to have such an amazing mother as you. I think you are a wonderful person, wife, and mother and I am grateful that I have the opportunity to learn and grow from your example. Your incredible. Keep posting, they always inspire me.
