Neglect

Where has the time gone? I feel like I have neglected my little blog. What a bad blogger I am.

So much has been going on in our lives. I have hardly had the time to sit down and pour my mind onto a blank page.

Well I turned 30. I had two great parties. One I knew about, the other was a surprise that my wonderful husband put together. They were both alot of fun.

As usual, I was surrounded by just the right people. Brians parents came down and took us out to dinner. That was very nice and it was great to see them.

We had tons of Halloween fun.

My boys amaze me...they are so special and melt my heart every time I look at them.

Now we prepare for Thanksgiving. I am slowly cleaning every room in my house. Not that it matters because I have little mess makers that walk around behind me just to be sure nothing is really clean. So my house will be as clean as it can get.

Brian will cook a huge feast and we will be surrounded my people we love. I think Thanksgiving is my favorite occasion. Its the least stressful of them all. Christmas is great too but its is pretty chaotic. Birthday parties are great too but they too are chaotic.

Well, it has happened. My boy has grown up right before my eyes.

I was in the bathroom brushing my teeth and Owen came in to go potty. He said, "mom, don't look".

This may be no big deal to most of you but to me it is a very big deal. Those three little words were a little shock to the heart. I smiled and turned around so he knew I wasn't looking. Why is this so significant, because my baby is no longer my baby. He is growing up and I am not sure how I feel about that. Of course I knew this day would come. The day when my baby became a boy who doesn't need me anymore, the day when my baby needs his privacy. I will happily give him any space he needs but with a heavy heart. I look at this two ways. One, he is growing up and we are moving onto a new phase in his life. I look forward to this new part of his life. Two, I need to keep having babies!
