I should be making dinner...

....But here I am blogging...

I always feel like I should say a bit more than I do when I blog but today will be a quick post again (since I need to get dinner going). Maybe tomorrow I will have a chance to sit and just write for a bit.

We had a good weekend here with great weather. It is in the 80's again today! Demani and I walked on campus today while we waited for Mathwon.

Demani is giving high 5's, clapping, crawling, walking along things, and will all of a sudden let go of something and stand for a few seconds. He is 11 months old today! WOW! He is growing by leaps and bounds and will crack us up at least a few times a day. He enjoys his new stuffed animal (look for pictures in the next post), the water jug, big bowls and spoons, cords, balls, and cell phones. Never a dull moment!!!

Parenthood is hard and fun and in some ways I am nervous about the future because I have a feeling it is going to include some tough times but also some great, laughable moments! I suppose that is why people have more than one child! That and they bring this inexplicable joy to your heart with every smile (see exhibits below).


CHEESE!


Demani and his empty water jug. He has a blast with the thing...hey don't knock it until you've tried it :)

Demani decided to help with dinner the other night and he "told" me he was making dessert. When Mathwon came home I told him about how Demani was playing with the bowl and the spoon and "helping me with dinner. " I mentioned that he "made" dessert. After dinner Mathwon asked if dessert was cookies or what it was and I was like ummm, I don't have anything for dessert...he said I thought you said Demani made dessert, I said we were pretending!! We got a good laugh out of that and I will have to be sure to mention when Demani and I are pretending :)
