Well, ok. So maybe writing here daily was a bit too optimistic. I have a journal to Aiden and it's the same way. I've got to get on SOME type of schedule soon. With another baby on the way I may go crazy if I don't. Anyway, Aiden turns one tomorrow. I just can't believe how quickly it went by. The first 6 months seemed liked forever and then boom....here we are at 1. He is such a beautiful, happy, smart guy. He actually came from me. It just never ceases to amaze me. And I guess I have to include Ari in the mix. Never, ever in my wildest dreams could I have even thought up something so wonderful for my life. I always prayed for a good husband and children. I just never imagined the blessings and the extreme to which he has given what I asked. Patience pays off. My little man seems like he learns 10 new things everyday. He picks up things so quickly. He jabbers all day from the moment he wakes up until his head hits the pillow at night. He plays hard, cuddles like crazy, and eats like a big boy. I am not sure how God's gonna top this kid. I know I will love new baby A, but it's so hard imagining sharing my time and my feelings. Everyone just says I will.
I'm watching my Ari and Aiden sleeping nose to nose...they look so much alike sometimes. My heart is so full of joy.
I think the new baby is due around Scottie's birthday....which is February 23. My boss is going to throw a serious hissy fit!!! Ought to be something to see :) In some ways I would love a baby girl to dress up and play dolls with, but boys seem so much easier. God knows best.
Aiden's birthday party is Saturday. In Panama you get two BIG birthday parties. One is when you turn a year old and the other is somewhere around 14. So, in keeping with Panamanian tradition we are trying to have a big one. I want it simple, so that I can enjoy Aiden and not running around all day. I planned on hotdogs, chips, cake.....swimming. easy! Ariel tells me today he wants to make rice and beans.....lol. I almost died laughing. (rice and beans with hotdogs).......ONLY IN PANAMA. Crockett , Mississippi is not ready for that combo!!! ewww
So many people we invited said they can't make it. It's funny when some of them say they can't. I sent out save the date thingys like over a month ago....it's called we have something better and more exciting and we don't want to come to your party. lol. I just call it like I see it. That's ok...Aiden could care less. As long as his favorite people are there, he is good. Well, aiden will be up at 7am, so I better get off and go to sleep.
Aiden, you are my angel, my air, my laughter, and my hope. Goodnight birthday boy. Mami loves you.

long time no blog...

I want to try to do this....as I have time. So much has changed since I was here last. I have a beautiful, happy, healthy 10 month old boy! Life is sooo much different and soooo much better. My goal is to post a pic....took me a month to do the last pic, so we will see.
