6 Months of Review

I have decided to focus more on my blog and less on social media lately. Because of this, I will be posting on my blog at least every Monday. Because so much is happening right now, I might post more often than that to keep track of everything.

The last six months have flown by so quickly. It must be the sleep deprivation, but I don't remember half of it. So here is the bits I do remember (or that I was wise enough to write down).

We had a baby! If you are not currently aware of this, then you are probably on the wrong blog and don't know me. We had my mom here for three weeks, and she was a huge help! It is so fun to have family come visit us. We love showing off the nice weather, amazing farmer's markets, beaches, and our child.

He has grown so much that I barely recognize the newborn pictures of him. Want to know a secret?  I look at them and go, hmmmm, he wasn't that cute, but at the time I was obsessed with him. I feel like no mom ever admits that. Don't get me wrong, I still think he's the most amazing child in the world. Here is the countdown:

He's turned into quite the little man! In July we also went up to Washington to visit family and have Isaac's blessing. He looked so sweet in his outfit and it was so special to have all our family there to bless him. It was so hot that day with no AC and poor Isaac got super hot in his outfit.

We were able to stay at Brent's sister's farm! They just bought the place and it is amazing. All of Isaac's cousins were so sweet with Isaac. It made me really excited to have multiple children! They would watch and entertain him whenever! Brent taught me some spanish children songs to sing to Isaac and Adele really caught on to them. It was amazing how fast she learned the words and proceeded to teach others and sing to Isaac. Both videos are kind of weird, but these are the songs!

 Brent's parents have a boat and we got to go shrimping and crabbing with them. It is so beautiful to be out on the ocean! Isaac did very good too, even napping on the boat! Also, I grew to like prawns. I've decided the only reason I didn't like seafood was because I'd didn't have enough exposure as a child. It makes such a big difference when you have it fresh, too!

I have fallen in love with Washington, especially the area where Brent's family lives. People have warned me that if I lived there I'd get very sick of the rain, but I will risk it for the beautiful lakes and trees!
