Cherish every moment

My family had a very eye opening month!! My dad had a heart attack a few weeks ago. He is going to be fine and we feel very lucky because he has very little damage to his heart muscle. But in those moments when I did not know what was going on and whether he would be ok- God reminded me of how precious our loved ones are and that we should cherish every moment we have with them. We never know when He might call them home. I am so very thankful today for my wonderful family and very wonderful friends, I hope each of them know how much I love them!!!

I addition to this, I just read on a friend of mine's blog about this family that lost a mother and 15 month old in a car accident. First, I cannot imagine what that family is going through or how you even go on? Only one way and I will pray they turn to God and find peace with this! Well, my friend wrote how she let her girls sleep with them last night and not worry about bad habits or blah blah blah. I could not agree more!!! they are only babies for such a short period of time and one day they will not want to sleep with us. So for now, I am going to hold on tight and snuggle my little buddy even tighter tonight...Cherishing every moment!!!

15 months

Well, our little man is 15 months old now and keeping us on our toes! He is truly becoming a little boy- part of me gets sad because my baby is growing up but the other part of me thinks every new phase is my favorite! He is so funny and so opinionated these days! Some funny little things Davis is up to these days:
dancing to the hot dog song on Mickey Mouse Clubhouse
blowing kisses with both hands
flirting with every female waitress we come across
throwing away his own diaper
say the word bath and you better run after his to the bathroom
"winking" but with both eyes
running...anywhere and everywhere
using the dustbuster
sign language for "more"- its so cute!
finding new spots to eat his goldfish
feeding myself...love some spaghetti




Telling us the oven is hot

CLIMBING! Look at this face, does he look guilty?














ZOO

We had some surprisingly wonderful weather in February and even though tax season is in full swing, we just had to take advantage and go to the zoo. I went in to work that morning but rushed home to get to the zoo before is afternoon nap. This was Davis' first trip and he had a blast!

Me trying to show him the zebras but they were too far away

"Mommy, see the rhino?"

VERY interested in the elephants...that's my boy. Roll Tide:)







Favorite part of the zoo...my wagon!
