Boy & dirt

What is it about dirt that makes boys nuts!!
Or kids in general.
I don't have a baby girl, but I was one. 
And yes, I loved getting messy & dirty.
L is getting into everything, yet we haven't baby proofed.
I guess it just means We have to be on our feet at all times.
Times like these, I really wish we had a house with more space. 
I want him to explore his little heart out. 
To be a kid as long as he possibly can.
With boundaries and rules of course.
I never want that sense of adventure to ever leave his little body.
This is just the beginning

These days

We've been so busy, This weekend is my Dh's Fiesta de graduacion. 

Finally after 4 yrs of schooling my dh has graduated. 

We are so proud of him!!. I've been planning and buying stuff.

 Spending money is easy to do. 

Lucas is just along for the ride.

 I took my best amateurish pictures of him for his 1st birthday. 

We've been in and out of the house.

 Sometimes nursing him is our only relaxing time. Also big news..

I think we will start TTC babe # 2.

 I still have yet to get my menstrual period, so I think it will take a while to get pregg.

 I'm not gonna chart anything, we're just gonna wing it. 

It's basically how we do everything.

 We are not a great planners.

 I can't even imagine our lives with two kids. Havoc!!!!

Sorry for the random rambling these days.

All grown up :/

THIS WILL TAKE SOME TIME GETTING USED TO....

Baby steps

It's official. Ladies & gentlemen, we have a walker. It seems like it just happened over night.Over the last couple of days he has been doing a better job walking. He has been cruising for about 2 months now. Yesterday, he was going steady more than usual. He would hold my hand and take steps, I would let go and he would keep on going. Then all of a sudden he would fall. Then we tried again, then again, then fall some more. Today in the morning it seemed like it would be the day.He took 10 continuous steps. He was standing by the t.v. and all of a sudden he started walking. I expected him to fall after 5steps or so but no!. He just kept going and going until he reached his destination. Then he returned to his original point. It was all just beautiful. I just had to record that. He seems like he has been doing this forever. Like he was born to walk. Obviously its a major milestone. One that many babies go through, still I feel like he is the most amazing being ever. To get his little chunky body to walk straight probably took a lot out of him. I almost cried, but I was too busy being shocked. I mean the kid took so long crawling. He recently barely started using his knees to crawl. I though he would do it after his birthday. He never ceases to amaze me. His dad and I love him to pieces, and now we will have to run for our lives. L walking means terror and lots of fun to come!! cannot wait to see more. Maybe see him run next week. Who knows.

Lately I've been uploading L's videos to YT

he was 6 mos, wobbly and fragile

Today he seems so mature

So strong

So independent

No longer a itty bitty baby

He nurses 3 times a day

he dances

babbles like hell

and give us the silliest smile

And walking..sorta!!

He cruises like the best of them and sometimes 

he just walks over to me.

happy 11 months

sweet child of mine
