it's been awhile

Hey friends :)

I have a few extra minutes this morning to update on a few brief things (rare occurrence). I'll start by saying I've really, REALLY slacked on blogging lately.. which is a shame because I enjoy it so much! Anyhow, life lately has been a little something like this:

Ayden is now walking. Everywhere! He is having such a blast with it, too!! I've told Jaymes for as long as I can remember that I just knew Ayden would be so much happier once he was able to REALLY move around.. and not to 'toot my own horn'... but I was right ;) It's so neat to watch him go through such a big milestone (a bit heartbreaking to). And don't get me wrong, he still has plenty fussy moments. However, we've both noticed a huge difference in his happiness, which is priceless! He's just perfect!

We've found "the" house.

And we're working our butts off to get it. More news to come on this..

Jaymes is becoming a police officer.

It's official, that's where the Lord is calling him. We are anxious! More news to come on this as well.

I'm switching medication.

I am now on Prozac, instead of Celexa. The Celexa just wasn't working for me, and I had given it a good few months to 'kick in'. I am anxious to see if Prozac is the right medication for me, and I'm praying that it is. It's safe for breastfeeding and pregnancy (up until the 3rd trimester) so it would be ideal. The good thing about this medicine is, like the Celexa (which was already well into my system), it's an SSRI drug. This means I will only need to wait a week or so to determine weather it's going to work for me or not, because I was already on SSRI drugs.. make sense? Anyhow, I'm on day 3, and am noticing tiny improvements.. so here's to hoping!

And my sister is visiting this weekend. holler.

I love that even though she lives all the way in Tennessee, she finds a way to visit every couple of months. Ayden has been blessed with an amazing Aunt! I love that he'll be able to look at pictures when he's older and see that she was there for all the important things in his life. We love you, Aunt Stina!

God is good, all the time.
