there are times when this wee one looks at me and i feel like the most beautiful woman in the whole world.

we borrowed ella’s jogging stroller since it’ll be a few months before she can use it.  tonight was my first “run” in a year and a half or so.  it felt good to move again but, good gravy, i’m out of shape!  all in all, i think i did fairly well.  my longest stretch was 3/4 mile but i probably did about 2.5 miles total (and walked another 3).  it was strange running with the stroller.  i felt like my striking and gait were off so i guess it’ll take some getting used to.  the turkey seemed to enjoy being able to look around so what else really matters?

we went back to chef and trainwreck’s house today to help ash with ella.  our little turkey was much more curious this time about his new best friend. he was so sweet with her, it just melted my heart.  these two have so many good times ahead of them!

halfway through the 52 weeks of belly pose… good golly, where is the time going?!

I just noticed that the call history on my phone is already wiping out October’s entries.  In a few short days, I will officially never see a call from my daddy again. 

The last calls I see with him were the 7th, 8th, 9th, 10th, 11th, 12th, 14th, 15th, 17th, and the 19th was our last phone conversation ever.  We talked almost every day that last few weeks.  I miss our talks so much.  It was so hard having a birthday without being assaulted by his awful singing first thing in the morning.

today’s new taste was egg yolk. good golly, what a mess! he had such a fun time rubbing them all over his face. he also figured out how to really play with his cars today. he’ll lean over themm and roll them side to side or push them out and pull them back. it’s so stinkin cute. of course, every time i broke out the camera he played possum.

eggs are fun to wear
