seven.








It's already been 7 months of changing diapers, midnight feedings, and wonderful happy times that more than make up for the mundane. Funny how a little one can change the way you view time. Before Aaron, this time would have flown with little notice. Praise God for another month with our wonderful son!!!

did you make that pasifier with the teeth or make it?

Jenny said...

that was a gift from one of Michael's friends in CO. Aaron likes to play with it - doesn't really suck on it or any other pacifier very much! He's a thumb sucker for sure.

I can't believe it's been 7 months already!! Time flies! I can't believe that Elijah will be here in 4 months or so!!!

Congrats on having completed seven months of the sheer joy of being a mother! You are right about how worth it it is to have children. THey are a blessing, and Aaron is getting so big. It doesn't seem like it has been seven months already.

Your little guy is a cutie--it's fun to be able to keep current with alumni!

Awe! Aren't they so much fun! Jonas is going to be 8 months tomorrow! I can't believe it. I love the feature video of Aaron laughing and cackling. So cute!

Okay, the first thing I thought was, "Did you say 7 months of midnight feedings?" Do you still have to get up every night? You're quite the woman! That would be vvvvery hard for me. Having kids is certainly an adjustment.

Actually, Kelly, it was NO midnight feedings for the first 4 months! Aaron slept through the night for a long time, then he got sick and combined that with growing and needing more milk, so we've been doing middle of the night feedings for a couple months, and I'm sure they will taper off here as he eats more solid food. God gives grace - and I can speak to that for sure! I am definitely a girl who needs sleep to survive, and somehow I am still alive (and even cheerful most of the time!) I am GLAD God knows what we can handle and when. :-) He will give you grace when the time comes as well!

Jenny, Jenny, Jenny. . .I can't believe you found me either! It's a little ironic, I must say-I was going through some old pictures a couple of weeks ago and found some of you and Austen playing with play-dough together. I had been wondering how you were, and then I saw your comment on my blog!
I'm still at CBA. I am part-time and I only teach speech and drama.
You know, your cutie 7th grade speech students are now Seniors this year and most of the senior high speech students you had have gotten married or will be getting married this year! Hard to believe, isn't it?!
Anyway, nice to hear from you. It looks like you have a wonderful family, Jenny! I enjoyed seeing pictures of your little one! AMY
