5 months and counting
I know that I'm not posting much lately, and I apologize for that. Busy, busy, busy ...
So, Jonathan turned 5 months on Friday, and he's still an awesome little guy. We took him to the vet yesterday for his 4th visit with shots, and he was understandably upset, but he recovered in a few minutes and was showered with love by Craig and me all day long to make up for it. This time I just took the day off instead of working from home because I wanted him to feel secure and happy as much as possible without shirking my work.
We had him dedicated this Sunday, and he was actually asleep when we were bringing him up. When he woke up to be handed off, he very cutely just peeked over the shoulder of the pastor for the minute or two that he was up there and didn't cry or anything. That was a relief to me, since I was afraid that he would be too upset.
We had Music Sunday that day, and it was a blast and I'm glad its over. I directed two choir pieces, sang another one, and played bells in yet another piece. It's a good time, but a bit tiring.
We're trying desperately to get the yard under control and when the rain stops, I still hope to get my garden in this year. The food is good normally, and the additional benefit of being able to make Jonathan's food from scratch is just too good to pass up if I can possibly help it.
Other than that, same old same old. Craig is wonderful as a SAHD with Jonathan. My sister and I are taking our mom to the Cape for a week in June, and I'm going to bring Jonathan along. We'll visit my in-laws for Memorial Day weekend, and my dad will finally meet Jonathan for Labor Day weekend. No big plans other than spending time with my son under my favorite tree out back once he can sit up, reading to him, and starting him on solid food sometime in the next month or two.
Life is good. :)
