High Speed...


Everything is so crazy right now. My father inlaw just moved in and is splitting from his wife, Mark is on the go , and I am doing circles. I hope all goes smooth with this divorce. So far it is, but you never know in these situations.

Mark is rolling and scooting backwards all over the place. We just went to get a gate to put up. We are baby proofing now. Mark also has his first tooth growing in. It looks sooo cute, but is hard to get a picture of. He gets cranky every now and then because of it. I have been putting teething gel on it. It seems to help a little.

I can't wait for Friday though! We are doing downtown for a halloween party. It will be a nice break for me. I love dressing up for halloween. I am thinking of being a referee, but you will find out later when I post pictures.

Well, have to get busy again. Have a great rest of the week!


Here is the latest picture of Mark. His hair as grown so much.

Crazy weekend!

This weekend was so crazy for everyone else. I got stuck at home all by myself. Gabe and the boys went to our new land in Wisconsin to do some work and I stayed home with Mark. I really missed Gabe by Saturday night. We have a family get together here this coming weekend so I have been cleaning and organizing things around the house. The house was a little upside down for the past few weeks. I got busy with so much outside the house that time flu and next thing you know your house is not yours.
Mark is also going through a lot of little things now. Everyday is something new... rashes, short naps, not sleeping through the night all of a sudden, figuring out what cereal to feed him...on and on. He is almost 6 months old now! I can't believe how fast he is growing. The funny thing is that he is crawling backwards at the moment. I am encouraging him to go forward by putting his toys in front of him. He talks baby talk and laughs so much now. He is going to be a social butterfly and a heart breaker. He gets along so well with everyone. But who's to say what will happen in the next few months.
I have a doctors appt today for Mark so I have to start getting ready. I have to start moving a few hours before any event with him. It is a circus show getting him ready.
I just don't want to go outside, it is rainy and yucky today. Compared to the 80's weather we have had all weekend. Well, that's Chicago for ya!
