Five

Merciful Heavens! The boy is five months old. I can hardly believe it!

He is so much fun! I never imagined he'd be so all consuming, but he is and I like it. He has two teeth, is rolling over, grabbing things, rubbing faces, watching cartoons....it's totally amazing to me. The next five months will be full of wonderful new things as well. He is such a blessing.

To update you on my Mom, she is feeling very well at present. She has now had two doses of her third round of chemo, and it always makes her feel better. She told me she can even walk now, without back pain. Hallelujah!

I have another injection scheduled for my neck on Monday. I'm looking forward to it, even if getting over it is not a party.

I've been thinking a lot about Christmas and now have a list of creative things that I need to get busy on. Unfortunately, my last trip to the local Walmart was a bust in the supply department. I'm going to have to make a trip to good ole Hobby Lobby and soon!

J and K visited over the weekend and I was so happy to have them with me. I miss them very much. Maybe one day they will live closer. A Mom can dream....

All my babies were here for lunch on Sunday and Nanna/Mom was a very happy person indeed!












The weather has been awesome, with the exception of the desperate need for rain. Maybe the Good Lord will see fit to bless us with some next week. I've lost three trees and am watching the fourth one slowly whither.
I love seeing all the fall decorations on blogs, on people's porches and in their yards. I haven't been able to come up with anything myself though. I need to address that issue post haste!
With that, and one last photos, I bid you adieu.

P.S. We got Grandpa's hand in this last pic. He is a bit camera shy....

Oh, my gosh! In five months he could be doing laps around the coffee table! Where does time go?!!!
