Lots of Updates

Well it has been a long time since I blogged and I couldn't imagine why! Our little guy is now almost 14 months! I am amazed out how fast they grow and the new things he learns on a daily basis! He is almost freely walking. I say this because he would prefer to have his hand resting on something as opposed to letting fully go. As I type that I realize I am that way with my faith right now. I need to physically hold on to something and am being tentative to let go and let God. Anyway I am working on that!
Things have changed so very much with the addition of our little/big guy! At his last appointment he was 25 lbs and 30+ inches tall. We swear he has a growth spurt every week. He fills our lives with laughter and joy! He loves to cuddle! He is saying words here and there as well as making a few animal sounds. I work now as a teachers assistant at a private school. I work with the 2's and 3's with a couple 4's in there. I also cook and clean for the school! I love it! McKinley goes to a sitter while I am there from 8ish-3ish. I think about him constantly and have a picture of him and Dwayne up at school on our family wall! He loves the sitter! They are a couple from our church who's daughter is the same age as me. They love him so very much! They are a true blessing in many ways!! He is a big flirt!! I'm not sure where he gets that from, but oh it works!! He can be fussy and cranky but a cute teenage girl walks by and the smile comes out and the eyes start batting. It's quite comical to watch! He loves music and watching his Uncle Chad play drums. He just might be a drummer and that is fine with his dad and I. He loves being read books and is working on puzzles. Oh my can I talk about him any more? LOL! of course I could but that is enough for now. We hope to get him to TN and OK this Summer for some much needed family time! Having extended family here and people like family is great but nothing can replace blood family, flaws and all! I hope to start blogging more this year, but alas depends on the little guy!
