life lately
yesterday kobe bryant died in a helicopter accident. his wife lost her husband and one of their daughters in an instant and suddenly all of my fears for the year were put into perspective. we're praying big prayers for 2020, but if they don't work out i'm grateful for the incredible husband God gave me and the amazing son he's blessed us with.
that being said, here are some things that are happenin' in our life lately:
- lots of winter hiking and walks around the park
- food prep for august is at an all time high, he's always a hungry hippo!
- caleb and i have been feeling the deep desire to go on a trip just the two of us
- august is sloooooowly starting to show interest in walking. he's the best eater. the greatest sleeper. is really good at being obedient. but refuses to walk! keeping us on our toes ;)
- upcoming trrips: moab (jan) , portland (feb), dallas (march)
this month has felt long and slow. it's been a month of not a lot happening. the holidays came and went and then there was stillness. i really struggle with stillness and tend to thrive in a lifestyle of always 'going'.
that being said, i do not want to wish these moments away with august right now. i love when i go into his room in the morning and he lays there with his thumb in his mouth grinning at me through the crib railings. or when his eyes get all big when something impresses him. or when he hears something in the other room and crawls as fast as possible toward the noise. or when he shouts 'mama!' and i respond with 'yes, baby'. or when he grins super big when i look back at him in the car mirror. or when he throws his head back when drinking his milk. or when he says 'bahbah??!' when pointing to my hydroflask water bottle.
he's hilarious and exhausting and sweet and loving and careful and calculated and kind and wonderful.
feeling grateful today.
