Thankful

I just need to post a quick note about how thankful I am to our Heavenly Father for sending such a sweet spirit into our lives. I am so thankful for the blessing of caring for and teaching Sean. He has brought such joy into our lives and despite the sleepless nights it has been such a wonderful and growing experience to be a mom. I am also very grateful for Mark's hard work so that I can stay home and care for our little guy.

Crawling

Just shy of his 6 month birthday Sean started to crawl. He is all over the place and tries to find things to put into his mouth. I love to watch him explore. He has also started to SCREAM when he gets frustrated. I'm sorry that I haven't posted a video until now.


He really wants to stand. There was a meltdown after this picture was taken because he couldn't stand.

Laughing!

MetroAccess

I have to vent about MetroAccess: We have an neighbor in a wheel chair who is on dialysis and can't get out of her apartment without help. When Mark and I were leaving to drop Mark off at work she was waiting for MetroAccess with her door open. We said hello as we were walking by and she asked us to tell the driver to come in and get her if he was out there. We found him around the corner asleep in his car. We got out and told him that she was waiting for him and to drive around to where the sidewalk is. --- I came back 1/2 hour later and he was STILL there. He had moved forward 20 feet and stayed in his van. I told him that she was still waiting and he said that it had been so long that they had canceled the pickup and that he had to call to get permission to pick her up. I was so mad! He was TOO LAZY to just come in and check. I finally talked him into coming. I had to tell him 3 times that she needed help getting out of her apartment before he SLOWLY walked into our building. This woman super nice and I don't know how she deals with these people. Anyway, I feel better now...sorry for the random post.

6 Month Photo Shoot

Sean turns 6 months old on Monday and so we did a little photo shoot. It was a lot of fun to photograph my own child. He seemed to enjoy it.











Pumpkin Patch

Today we went to the pumpkin patch with Kim, Anne, Ellie and Nathan. It is the tradition to drive to a really fun patch with lots of activities. We went to the farm's restaurant for breakfast...Yummy! Then we went to the Patch...

It's Tradition


It was fun to hang out with Ellie and Nathan for the day.
