Quick Update

I know I haven't posted an update in what seems like forever. This is just a quick recap of what has been keeping the Shaw family so busy lately:

• Work, work, work
• Unpacking the book shelves (and sneezing from dusty books)
• Unpacking the computer desk (almost done!)
• Washing bottles (I am weaning Jacob off of nursing so there are lots more bottles to wash)
• Planning Jacob's birthday party for next month
• Shopping for curtain hardware and decorations for the house
• Sewing curtains with my mommy
• Sewing a duvet cover for the guest room with my mommy
• Planning the bed skirt for the guest bed
• Picking up Jacob's toys 4+ times a day
• Church
• Youth
• Watching Jacob move around more
• Watching Garnet run from Jacob
• Enjoying my new house
• Washing Jacob's clothes (but not folding them; I can't find time for that, ugh!)
• Keeping the house ready for guests at any time (this is all Adam wants from me; for our house to be guest-ready at all times and I'm happy to do it for him, it just takes time)
• Making my bed everyday (gold star for me-that is a big thing!)
• Hanging up my clothes everyday (gold star again-basic things, but big for me)
• Loving my son to death
• Sitting on the floor while Jacob climbs over me and plays
• Listening to Jacob talk to himself making mostly just the "da" sound
• Listening to Jacob throw a few "mommas" into his conversation
• Stopping work because Jacob pulled himself up on my chair and when whining didn't get my attention, he tried "momma"
• Loving my husband
• Tolerating my dog and learning to love him for what he is
• Wondering how many nights Garnet is going to wake me up snoring
• Wishing I could get my behind in gear to walk everyday
• Juggling just the daily tasks and trying to be more efficient so I can do things like walking
• Getting up (most days) before Jacob so that I am showered and ready for my day (hair & makeup) when he wakes up (the day goes a lot better when that is done early)
• Going to baby showers for Jenny and Stephanie
• Enjoying my life, wishing for a little more time, but not wanting to change a thing!
