My least favorite thing to do is work outside the home.

My least favorite place to be is at work. I would love to be home with my baby.
My secret obsession right now is blog surfing. It really is addicting.
I miss North Carolina. I would love to go back to visit one of these days.
I have been terrible at keeping in touch with people from my mission. -- Me too.
I have not seen a lot of my good friends in a very long time and I do miss them.
I have the sweetest baby that brings joy to my life.
At night after i get done nursing him and he falls asleep I just want to hold him, and rock him and not put him down.
I hate pumping everyday at work, but I enjoy nursing Colsten.
I will be sad when I have to stop nursing because I feel like that is my bonding time with Colsten that no one else can have since I don't get him all day long.
I look forward to the day that I will be able to be a stay at home mom.
I love my husband and son more than anything.

I now tag the following people to post a "did you know" thread on their blogs: Kristen, Nancy, Whitney, Teresa, Diana, Kara, Shaylee, Kourtney, Amanda, Angie, Bonnie, and Sherry.

I was told that I need to add some pictures. :)

Look at those little baby boobs. :)

Quick update on the last couple of weeks

Yesterday was Colsten's 6 month appointment. The doctor said he is very impressed with how fast he is learning physically. He had Colsten up on the table to check him and Colsten rolled over then got up on all fours and trying to sit. Then he pushes his legs up so his bum is in the air. This is normal for us, but our doctor seemed suprised that he was already doing these things. Colsten is trying so hard to crawl. He has almost got it and then we are in trouble. We haven't even baby proofed our house yet. I have some Willow Tree Statues that were in the bottom of our entertainment system. Tally told me that I probably needed to move them up. I told him that I have a few weeks. Well last Sunday I was in the kitchen and heard some clunking noise then Tally started laughing. I knew right then what was going on. Colsten was in the bottom of the entertainment system from the waist up playing with the statues. He was sucking on the head of the baby and just having fun. They are officially moved now. We have been giving him cereal. He wasn't doing well with the rice so we tried oatmeal and that was so much better and he has had sweet potatoes. So we are on our way to real food. He weighed in at 18 lbs 13.5 oz. (70%), his height is 26" (25%), and his head is 17 1/4" (50%). Things are looking good with him. He is so happy and loves to laugh.
Last week we had a suprise anniversary party for my parents. We figured it would be fun to do something for them. They have had such a hectic year with Natalie. It was fun having everyone here. Scott & Kourt came up and Alan & Amanda came up and suprised them. We got to meet Zach. He is adorable. We are glad that he is here and things are going well. It was fun to have all of the grandkids together. My mom tried to get pictures with all 5 of them, but there were a couple that didn't really want to cooperate. That is ok, there will be plenty of other times.
Natalie finished one more round of chemo this last week. She has 2 more rounds left and then she will be done with chemo hopefully for good. She is an inspiration to me. She has been so strong through all of this and had such a great attitude. It will be a year since she was diagnosed at the end of this month. She was diagnosed on Aug 29. It will be so good to have it over. It has been a very rough year. I am so blessed she is my sister. I love her so much.
