I slacked off again

So I had great intentions in keeping up with the blog. But then life happened. Between finishing up my Master's, chasing my busy boy, being a wife, step-mother, daughter, and sister I once again stopped blogging. Not that I have anybody to keep me accountable because I think the only person who has ever read this is my mother. Nevertheless, it is time for an update.

Gage is closing in on one and I am seeing my little baby disappear and an active toddler emerging. At times I'm excited about the changes that I see and the knowledge of where his development will be going next. At other times I miss the little baby that adored lights (especially of the Christmas variety), kicking his feet, and spending time on the floor looking around. I've been very lucky to have been able to spend the past eleven months with him, other than 8 weeks of practice teaching, and I wouldn't trade that for anything in the world.

Matt just finished another lobster fishing season. It's nice to have my husband back. I joke that I become a fishing widow during the season, because he's gone all day, home long enough to eat, shower, and then pretty much off to bed. Gage seems to like him being home more too, especially since he seems to think that his Dad is the fun one!
