Growing up to fast!

*7 Months Old*

Paxton turned 7 months on the 20th of this month, Where has the time gone? I'm sure all mom's think highly of their children but i swear paxton is advanced for his age. he's been able to sit up and crawl for a couple months, but now he'll crawl over to the couch, his bucket of toys, pretty much anything he can reach and use it to help him stand up. It freaks me out, i always think he'll fall and hit his head. He is so dang cute and he makes us so happy! I don't know what i would do with out this little man. He means the world to me!!

I do have to say this because i am very proud of myself. While i was pregnant i ended up gaining a total of 43 pounds, yes i was freakin fat, well i have lost all that weight plus some! I've lost about 50 pounds!! Nursing really has done wonders, i blame my weight loss on that since i haven't worked out once.

Most of you know we moved to Chicago, Illinois about 2 weeks ago and i really am loving it here. Everyone we have met has been so nice. It's beautiful here, and where we live is super safe. The day we moved here daniel lost his wallet at the train station, we called our bank and cancelled credit cards and we were freaking out, a week later we got a call from the station saying someone turned it in, goes to show there really are good people out there! we felt blessed.
