Sorry bout that-we've been really busy!!!

After 5 months and 11 days..we are back to Bloggy World!!! :)
Wow, what an adventure...the biggest of my life.
This little man has taken us for a wonderful ride.
Some things I have learned and will be learning, I'm sure...

1. God really loves me. He doesn't expect anything from me.
It's unconditional love. He enjoys me. He is proud of me because I am His child. There is absolutely NOTHING Will has to do to make me proud of him. I just am!

2. I need God's strength through "Mommyhood". It's tough being a mommy :) Very rewarding, though! But talk about "RESPONSIBILITY"! Wow, and sometimes all the decisions can become overwhelming...but thank goodness for God's grace and a husband who loves me! And for running!

3. Running is fun! I can't believe I'm so into it as I am. But Bill has been running for a long time and we've been going to 5K races in the area and he's been winning!!! I guess really throughout my pregnancy the desire to run started coming. I saw him having so much fun, and so I've jumped in feet first. My goal was to run in the Jingle Bell Jog. And I did using "from the couch to the 5k" plan on Runner's World Website. Since then I've ran in two other races, and have placed in my division. Running is so euphoric. It's addictive really! So if you are interested, let me know....Bill and I can get you hooked too!

4. Diapers are expensive, but thank goodness for them!

5. All about Will. It's neat to see how far we've come. When we first brought him home, he was so tiny...And now he is 95% on the growth chart. He's a BIG boy! And for this, I am thankful. He brings us much Joy! Well, speaking of him, gotta go, he's waking up from his nap.

6. One more, pictures are on their way! I've learned it's been harder to find the time to blog....sorry bout that!
