nap please

gabe woke up at 4:30am and was pretty honest with his desire for milk...so i scrambled out of bed and stumbled my way to the kitchen. of course i tripped over a few toys on my way. then opened the cabinet and a bottle fell from pretty high up and hit my toe, hard. it was more painful that it sounds!

i've been up since.

i had my normal (large) amount of coffee this morning but i'm still half asleep.

it's always dangerous when i have no reason/point to my blog. here we go!

gabe says "tant tu" (thank you) constantly and i LOVE it. so precious.

he's so much fun. he truly is. i don't know why God chose us to be his parents but i am SOOOOOO glad He did. what a cool blessing.

i love christmas. i'm already excited. i love christmas lights! i love christmas trees. i love christmas movies, decorations, smells (like food!), weather, music...ahhh i love it all)

that's why this is my most favorite time of year. ALL of my favorite things are just ahead of me!  COLLEGE FOOTBALL, our fall family extravaganza, my birthday, thanksgiving and Christmas!

then i kinda get sad for a while. i despise new years eve. i don't like the month of february at all so i'm pretty much sad til march.
