Hello all!
Today is "Friday"! Yay!
I can't believe Thanksgiving is tomorrow! This year has just flown by. My baby is over 7 months old already. Holy crap.
Speaking of which...we got her six month pictures back from the photographer and I L.O.V.E. all of them. They turned out so good! I suppose it helps that the subject is so super cute ;)
Here are some samples for ya'll
She was none too happy at this point in the photo shoot. She smiled for one picture with the costume on, but this one is just too funny!
Oh, man...she looks so grown up in this last picture. My baby is turning into a little girl.
Speaking of which...she is getting up on her hands and knees and rocking back and forth all.the.time. Its nuts. I bet Don that she would be crawling by Christmas, he doesn't think she will be. She has six weeks to perfect the movement. I think she can do it...even though that scares the crap out of me! She is mobile as is with all the rolling, but crawling?! Yikes!
I can't believe the last 7 months have flown by so quickly. We've experienced a lot with Lizzy and the huge change that having a kid can create for your marriage. I am so thankful for Don and everything he does for me (and puts up with from me :)). I am thankful that we have a healthy, extremely happy baby. And I am thankful for my health. I've had some struggles with some anxiety issues and I got some help and I am feeling better.
I will admit I don't like telling people about this. Actually Don is the only one that actually knows. I have not muttered a word to anyone else. So if you know me in real life, mums the word please. It makes me feel like a bit of a failure (although I know this can happen to anyone and its not my fault). Before I went to see my doc I would come home and be anxious about all that needed to be done. But if I spent the time doing those things, I would get anxious about not playing with Lizzy since I really only had about 3 hours with her in the evenings after work. I was anxious about being anxious. It was an irrational, crazy circle and I felt like it was spiraling. It was not cool. But I am doing better now and I am now really able to enjoy Lizzy, our time together, and life in general a lot more!
Ok, so I didn't mean to go there right now but I guess I just did :)
I hope everyone has a GREAT Thanksgiving and eats themselves silly!
