Blake decided to wish me an early mother's day by waking up at 4am bright eyed and bushy tailed ready for the day. It took a lot of effort but I finally got him to go back to sleep at 5am thank goodness! I was just not ready to start the day at 4 - 6:30 is much more my time of day.
We went to church, Lauren to Sunday School, Bradley to teach SS, and me to my youth group meeting. Then we came home and got ready for our company tonight - Doug Webel one of our friends from Indiana who is staying with us while doing business in St. Louis tomorrow. Grandma and Grandpa Wolter came over for a bit which was a nice surprise. We didn't think we'd get to see them until tomorrow since they were in Red Bud this weekend.
Blake turned 8 months old today. My how the time has flown by! It's amazing how fast he's grown. My little boy is not so little anymore. I just want time to stand still for a little while so I can keep him as a baby. He's babbling, starting to feed himself, and getting close to crawling. It's such a fun age! Here is a picture of him self feeding today.
Each month since he was born I've taken a picture on his changing table with him in his diaper only. Here is the most recent photo and the one from 1 month. What a change!
I got my first Mother's Day card from Lauren and also a beautiful (4 year old art) window hanging. She said today was her favorite day which melted my heart. I will treasure these things forever since they are my first gifts from her that she actually made.
We have another busy week ahead of us so I better head to bed!
