1 month already?

I can't believe it but today is Sebastian's 1 month birthday. Crazy...

We went to the doctor and he is growing rapidly - despite the reflux, thrush and bouts of insomnia! He already weighs in at 10.6 lbs and is 23 inches long. Dr. Hubbard says he has big hands and feet, super long legs and quite a bit of personality. She even commented on his ability to already give "looks." Wonder where he gets that from?
Thank you to all of our friends & family who have showered us with support, love and wonderful meals this first month. We couldn't have made it without you!



Gypsies

Well, it's official...we have put our house on the market. If you drive by and think you're seeing things, rest assured you're not! At just over a year, we have succumbed to the fact that we just aren't "new" house people. I so miss the charm of crooked baseboards, closet doors that don't close and time worn, scratched hardwood floors! Call us crazy but while most people look for big and new in a house, we're in the market for small and old. For us, new doesn't mean better. With me recently switching to a no-pay, more work job (a.k.a. Domestic Diva), a smaller house note would be nice too. At last count, I lived in 9 houses by the age of 13. My parents always enjoyed a change of scenery and I think the "gypsy" is just in my blood. Lucky for me, Donald is equally as restless. We're excited to see where God takes us...and it just might mean staying put, but we are ready for another moving adventure and prayerfully trying to stay in His will.

This one's for Mommy


Yes, cheesey I know, but really...isn't he the cutest?

Sistery love

For all the skeptics who thought Coco might be jealous of her baby brother...fear not! She loves him dearly. At times, maybe a little too much. :) Here are a few pics of her displaying her love with "sugar." She gives him kisses no less than 20 times a day and constantly asks to hold 'her.' Since she is two, gender is still a mystery and she refers to him as "her" and "she." I guess it only makes sense...every baby doll she has is a girl. Oh, how I marvel at the mind of a 2 year old!
