Van had fun with his friends, Laekin & Ezra this week, he is full of smiles, most of the time. He loves to spin things lately & really fast too. We are pretty sure Van is right handed too he always uses that hand to reach for things. He loves getting kisses on his neck, and being sung to. He turns on the charm when any lady gives him the slightest bit of attention – must be an Erwin trait for sure!!! Van is going in to see the Dr today for his 5 month shots. Life seems like it is moving in the right direction, we are cleaning house and taking care of things that have been neglected these past 5 months.
We went out on Julie, Dave & Ezra’s boat this weekend. It was so much fun and really relaxing. Ezra is Van’s buddy and he is 2 1/2 months old. Van loved the boat and also went to sleep for a brief time until his car seat was flooded with water that came overboard. We were pulling the guys behind the boat and it was a little choppy out on the water. he was a good sport and just woke up a little wet and wanted to eat! Oh and here is a cute video of Van playing drums with our friend Mike on the boat, he was so happy out there!
We had a mellow day today really sleepy, it actually rained this morning and I don’t know why but I was so tried all day long. Tonight Conner cooked the best dinner, and I actually ate red meat for the first time in years. well besides a hamburger here and there. we had fillet Mignon in a balsamic red wine reduction, mashed potatoes & sauteed green beans. For dessert we made coco chocolate cupcakes.
Conner and Van hung out today for a while and had fun together, I took some cute pictures of them on the couch, with Van’s mermaid doll.
I just started building my design web site, I will let you know when it is up. check it out from time to time for updates!
Next weekend we are having a beach party with our friends to celebrate my 32nd Bday! I feel differently about this birthday coming up, I have a son on this birthday for the first time ever, I have a happiness inside I never knew I would have. Know body tells you what it is going to feel like when you have a child of your own, and it is really an experience you can’t even fathom. I am excited to see some good friends that I haven’t seen in a while! It should be fun.
This week coming up is going to be a busy one, lunch with friends, drs appts for Van and I, the dogs are getting shaved, and looking for my next freelance projects are on the calendar.
welcome.
