Big Changes

every time Boaz wakes from a nap and I go get him I look at him and I would swear he looks different every time. Every day he changes. he’s starting to not look like a baby anymore, he starting to have an older face ,if that’s possible for an 8 month old! Caleb is the same way. Today I picked Caleb up since he was obviously still tired after waking from his nap, and not only is he extremely tall now he’s heavier than he was. he’s still a skinny kid but he’s still much heavier than he was last year.

I looked back at my high school senior book today and saw pics of myself and of Dean and it amazed me how young we looked. I used to think I was really fat in high school but when I look at pics I think I must have been crazy. Today I am fat…back then I guess I was somewhat anorexic since I know I would often not eat and constantly obsess over my weight. The best thing about looking at that book was the sweet entry Dean wrote in it to me. He’s out tonight working a side job to get a little extra cash and it was kind of nice to read it and think of him knowing he’s out taking care of not just me but our family.

other big changes around here today include Caleb’s room has one new coat of paint(we probabaly wont finish painting til tomorrow), I’ll not tell what color til after it’s done and post pics, but it’s not the colors I wanted, but now that I”ve done it it is definitely cool. I’m sure it’s through answered prayers, but we’re all feeling amazingly better today. we’ve all been able to eat all day and not gotten sick. Boaz is still struggling w/ fun messy diapers but that’s probably because he’s decided he is ready to eat again. I think it will take a while for him to get better from this, the pediatrician on Friday said that he was worse than the rest of us because it’s the first time his body has had to fight this kind of bug and our bodies are more able to fight it because we’ve had these kind of bugs before. It made sense and made me feel a little better, although I hate him being so sick.

Not sure what else will happen this weekend other than Dean’s working most of the night tonight and tomorrow we have church and more painting to do. I guess that’s enough to keep us busy! Have a great weekend everyone!
