1. Why does this have to be my pregnancy craving? (It was oranges last time!)
2. Why does there have to be a Sonic right next to the grocery store I shop at every week?
Not good.

House
As of Thursday after signing more papers than I ever have in my entire life, Grant and I became homeowners. It feels pretty good, but I don't know that it has quite sunk in for me yet. It was such a long process, and we weren't sure that it was going to work out with this particular house. But it did, and we are thankful.
Now we get to fix it up. So we spent all day long Saturday at our house (we have been practicing calling it that now--feels strange!), Home Depot, and Sherwin Williams. There are so many decisions within decisions to be made--paint, lighting, flooring, appliances, etc. The list goes on.
And I thought wedding planning was a lot of detailed decisions...

10 Months Old
At ten months, Ashyr loves:
Playing with my whisk! He finds it in the kitchen drawer and carries it around just about every day. Helping me do laundry. I fold it. He unfolds it. Without fail. :) And the camera. He always perks up when I get it out and smiles for me. Love him!

Teething and Weaning
The two most difficult things so far in my days of mommyhood. I have never wanted Ashyr to grow up too fast (and I still don't) but I can say that I am ready for these two stages to be over..soon. Months 8 and 9 have seemed like they are dragging. I absolutely hate seeing him in pain, constantly chewing on his little fingers and crying. Teething is terrible, why wasn't I warned more about this? And with baby #2 on the way, I really want him to be weaned by one year. Having a couple months of not nursing a baby sounds wonderful!
I can tell progress is being made in these areas, but it has been slow. Seriously, why can't baby teeth just pop in over night instead of taking weeks? I feel like I am trying to constantly console and comfort him all day (and night) and that becomes very taxing when you are already fatigued.
Needless to say, I am even more thankful for each smile and happy moment we have together right now.
