Time...

SO, this long weekend wasn't too exciting...

But it was nice to just have TIME!  We didn't have any baseball games, or karate, or ANYTHING!! It was great.  We just had time. Time to do things we've been meaning to get around to. Time to garden, time to go on a little shopping adventure (REI...what fun! The boys, well really just the older one, needed new shoes and the little one got some matching....thanks Nana!), time to just hang out together, and time to play a little. But, still not enough time to get around to all the endless TO DO lists...Do you have those too? 

But little a. did so many funny new things this weekend. He's changing so fast! He is still not clearly speaking (talking is overrated anyway...) but he definitely understands soooo much. He says juice and shoes..... and they sound the same.  He says da-da and that......and they sound the same. He says da-da and ma-ma......and THEY sound the same. But hey...I am starting to get it. He does what we ask. (except sit down) and he is signing a bit.... We are progressing! And he gives the greatest kisses and best all out body hugs you've ever had.

And I  just don't want to miss it! Any of it. And, I find myself so pre-occupied at times that I am afraid I am missing so much. Don't you ever just wish you could hit the pause button on your brain?  Or is that just a problem I have?  Overload central! It's all those darn TO DO lists.... I better get better at being present in the moment or all this precious time will pass me by. Check out some of the fun pics I took this weekend:
