Wow! What a week!

We have had quite the busy last week or so at our house. We finally gave in and decided to get new carpet in the house, got our built-in cabinets installed, spent Easter with BOTH families, and I got officially admitted to school. It seems like so much can change so quickly these days.

I will be starting school at Aurora University in their Elementary Education Masters program on June 10th. Crazy, time has flown so fast! It will be a very busy year with work AND school, followed by 16 weeks of student teaching, but in the end I think it will be well worth it!

Today I got to thinking that Brett and I will celebrate 2 years married in about a month. It seems SO much longer than that! I know that is mostly because we have done so much in 2 short years, and Braden certainly is a HUGE part of that; but I can't help but think we've been together FOREVER already. It seems unbelievable that Little B will turn 1 year old in less than 4 months!

Brett and I have collectively decided that 8 months is the perfect age. Braden is so much fun and has such a little personality already. He is starting to really understand the world around him, and is smiling and giggling more than ever. His new favorite trick is "pointing" at each and every thing he sees. When Brett gets home from work, the pointing and squealing that results from the first glimpse Braden gets of his daddy is incredible. I am truly amazed at how much our little man learns each day.

I told Brett today that, while I know logically that it is WAY too soon to be thinking about #2 yet, the thought definitely crosses my mind on a daily basis. Babies grow way too fast and Little B is already resembling a little boy- no longer a baby! I miss the little baby that fell asleep on my chest and was always where I left him if I walked away for a minute or two. Don't get me wrong, I am absolutely loving the little boy he has become, its just sad how quickly the "baby" stage ends. It will be at least another couple of years before we'll get to have a "baby-baby" again, so I guess we'll enjoy the busy, ever-changing, full-of-personality bundle that we have right now.
