11 months old

I cannot believe that Luis is 11 months old already, how on earth did the time fly by so quickly?! I miss my baby while I'm at work, but we have so much fun playing in the afternoons.

I really need to get on the party planning, but I'm so tired from getting back to work that all I want to do is relax once I get home. Guess I'll be spending all day tomorrow making invitations.

He was showing off his walking skills today at the triplets soccer game and clapping along with everyone else. He loves to either play with Claire or his Teppah during the boys' game, he sure does love his family.

Blowing Kisses

In case I haven't mentioned it before, I LOVE MY BABY! Yesterday afternoon we were playing and he kept waving bye to me before walking away pushing his walker. I decide to start blowing him kisses and he immediately started blowing them back!

His kisses have this soundtrack: "mmmmmmmmmmmmmm.....bye,bye,bye,bye" He doesn't understand yet that you have to move your hand away from your mouth for the kiss to actually be blown, but it only makes it cuter!

Insane Weekend

Luis and I just had the craziest weekend ever! We attended 4 birthday parties on Saturday, three for kids and one adult party. I then had a baby shower on Sunday which took another 5 hour chunk out of my day.

I'm so glad we were able to see so many people but this is what our crazy schedule looked like on Saturday:

11:00 a.m. - Sophie's 1st birthday party
2:00 p.m. - Leave Sophie's party and drive to Highlands Ranch for the next party/nap for Luis in the car
3:00 p.m. - Lander's 2nd birthday party
5:00 p.m. - head to Ava's 2nd birhtday party in Parker/short nap for Luis
5:30 p.m. - Ava's party
7:45 p.m. - head to Jason's party in Westminster (55 miles from Meredith's in Parker!!!!!!!)
8:30 p.m. - Arrive at Jason's party
10:00 p.m. - Finally get Luis to fall asleep at Jason and Kara's party (I drifted off too for a bit, I was pooped)
11:30 p.m. - Leave Jason and Kara's to head home (FINALLY)
12:00 a.m. - Arrive home after being out and about for 13 hours
8:30 a.m. Sunday - We finally all wake up

The baby shower yesterday we very nice and had great food. It was nice to have a ladies afternoon because even though I love my guys I totally need a little time away nwo and then.

We are not doing anything this weekend, I need a chance to veg out and get stuff done around the house.

Back to work

Well, sadly I had to go back to work this week. I have what seems to be a great job and I'm excited for the options, I will be a supervisor of 20-30 work at home customer service agents. So although I am in the office, it's nice to not have to see any of my employees face-to-face. :O)

I miss Luis terribly so far, but I know that he could probably care less...if he has even noticed yet :O) I'm working crazy early hours also so that is going to take some getting used to, all in the effort to make sure Luis has health insurance while me still getting to spend some time with him.

He's walking

I figured it would happen soon enough, but Luis is really walking now. It is only 6 or 7 steps at a time, but technically that is walking. When he is done he claps for himself and then complains until I set him up to do it again.

I have a video of it, so I'll need to post again with his first foray into walking.

In the meantime here are some pictures from my birthday weekend, we had a great time. Oscar and I went to Melting Pot then the following weekend we had a dinner for Aunt Lanie, my party and the Rockies game on Sunday...it was a busy week!!
