  • Sad...

    I'm sad..  Sad that my parents are leaving to go home tomorrow (in the morning, early).  It was a nice long visit, but never long enough!!

    I'm also a little sad that Austin is spending his first night out of his crib tonight, in his little toddler bed that we made for him.  It turned out really cute and he loves it, but I'm kind of sad that he's growing up so fast.   Yet, I'm excited for him...  Mixed emotions..

    And seeing my parents have to tell Austin goodbye and knowing that they won't see each other for a few months makes me sad..  It's so sweet  to watch them hug and kiss goodbye, but at the same time it makes me blink back a tear.. so hard.  Sad..  so that's me right now.. just a little sad.

    Don't get me wrong, I feel very blessed 100% of the time, and this is how I feel every day --> "".  I just wish we could have all of our family around us all of the time.  I think we will be visiting Nana&Papa in a few days, though, while Chris is still on vacation, and I'm planning to make a trip to MO to visit sometime this spring... so those things will be fun to look forward to.

    Austin is talking up a storm now.  Mom&Dad have seen a drastic change just in the 3 weeks they've been here, and tonight he was really pretending with his stuffed animals.  And he has some of his favorite stories memorized, so that if I'm reading and stop randomly, he'll fill in the words.  Changing all the time!  Next time I'll post pics, but this time, too tired.. must try to get some sleep. 

    To Mom&Dad:  By the time you read this, you will be home..  WE MISS YOU and thank you for coming and staying so long!!  So much fun we had, can't wait for you to come again, and look forward to seeing you soon!
