2011

There is no possible way that any year could ever top 2011. 2011 is the year I became a mommy, and there's nothing in my life that will ever compare to that. 2010 comes in a close second since that's when we got married, but still not as good (sorry Chris, haha!).



It's so hard to believe that my tiny six pound baby is almost four months old and has already doubled his birth weight!

Watching Lawson grow and learn new things is the most amazing thing. It's also very bittersweet. Chris and I get so excited when he does something new, but there's also this little pang of sadness at the fact that he's growing up. We are just amazed DAILY by the things this little boy can do! Just this past week, he has found new sounds and is really close to sitting up on his own. It's so crazy how he literally changes over night. He will wake up some mornings and have a new "skill" to show off to us! It makes for some ROUGH nights sleep-wise, but I love the new milestones he is hitting.



One of his absolute favorite things to do is talk to us. He really thinks he is so big and tries so hard to make his mouth make words like ours. His little face concentrates so hard when he is "talking" or listening. We spend many nights and early mornings just laying in bed and talking to him. I have so many cute videos of him talking, but I can't figure out how to upload them here. Maybe some day I'll have time to figure it out. :)

Here's to a wonderful 2012 filled with many blessings and lots of love! Happy New Year!
