Well, it's been 6 months since I have blogged and my sweet boy turned 6 months July 18th. You can imagine why I haven't had the time to blog. Oh how life has changed since I last posted. Looking back at my old post it was all pre-Austin days and days that I can hardly remember. Life before Austin hardly exist to me now and I can't imagine a life without that precious boy in it. I can't even catch you up on all the things that have happened in the past 6 months but they have truly been amazing. I feel like I started really living when my baby was born on January 18, 2012. The best day of my life. He has completely changed our lives and we are so in love with Austin.. a love that we never knew existed.
Austin has grown so much in the last 6 months. He was 9 lbs and 4 oz when he was born. He is now 19 lbs and 12 oz at 6 months. He is off the charts for his height (like his daddy) and 75% on his weight. He is a very healthy boy. He rolls over, which he has been doing for a few months now, he is mastering sitting up, and his favorite thing to say is Da-da. It melts my heart every time but I think it's time that little stinker starts saying mama. He can reach for you if he wants to come to you and he is trying to figure out crawling. He can raise himself with his arms and he can put his knees under himself but he can't do it at the same time yet. He gets frustrated but it's very cute watching it. He is growing and changing everyday and I am so thankful that I have had the summer off to enjoy him.
I have a week left of summer break with Austin and I am very sad about taking him to daycare. I know he is going to do great but I just know that I am going to miss him like crazy. I am used to spending 24 hours a day, 7 days a week with him and now I am only going to get 2 full days a week with him. I think he is going to miss mommy, too.
Life has been amazing and I am so proud of my little family. Franz is an amazing father to Austin and a wonderful husband to me. I have absolutely nothing to complain about. I am so thankful for all that God has blessed me with. One thing that Franz and I want to focus on right now is saving and paying some things off to make a better future for our family. No more eating out or spending on extra things we don't really need. It will be worth it later on. It is something that we need to sacrifice to make sure our son has everything he wants and needs. I think it will be healthier as well. ;)
Well, I could go on and on about things but I need to go check on my sweet little boy. :) Who knows when I will be back on here since school is starting back.
