It's amazing how much has changed since last year. My little man is growing up! Last year he screamed if you tried to put on his Elmo bike helmet. This year he couldn't wait to get it on. He even tried to put it on himself and then he hurried to jump into his bike seat! We took our first bike ride of Spring yesterday. I love Spring, when all the trees and flowers are blooming. It is beautiful and wonderful. I love the simple pleasures of bike riding and playing at the park. I have to remind myself to savor all the moments because time flys way too fast. I love to watch Jack play and to listen to his laugh! I can remember being pregnant with him and wondering how his laugh would be... I couldn't have imagined a better little laugh! He is such a social little bee! He always seems to find a friend at the park playground too. I like that. Life is so much easier if you aren't shy. I love his imagination too. It has been so much fun to watch it develop over the last few months. He really has a great imagination. His favorite pretend game is to make believe the playground structure is a rocket ship. It often changes from a rocket to boat and then a train just like the Little Einstein Show. Sometimes Daddy joins in and they decide which planet they will blast off to next. It is cute to hear them both yell, "Blast off!" I love our family walks in the park too. Jack often wants to walk too this year. He reminds me often that he is a big boy and wants to walk, no stroller for him. Man how fast they grow!

The best hugs!
I love being a mom. As long as I can remember I knew I wanted to be a mom more than anything else in the world. During the first 5 years of our marriage I truly thought that I might never get to be a mommy. Then God sent us the best blessing we could have ever imagined...our Jack-a-roo! And oh what a blessing! He is the joy of my life. I love his sweet silly little ways. I love his sense of humor and his hugs. His hugs are the best. Sometimes they even involve raspberries on your cheek! A little extra bonus. At the end of the day, when you come home from work all the worries of the day easily melt away when those little arms hang around you neck and a little voice asks you, "Mommy, how was day?"
Okay I finally give in!
All my proud mom friends have blogs...including tons of cute stories and cute pictures. I don't know why I've held out so long. It really is fun to be able to read up and see the cute pictures. I honestly have wondered where they find the time to do it all. I barely find time to clean the house each week. Well, here it goes. I have finally caved in. I feel like I have missed sharing all the early cute stuff that my Roo boy has done over the last two years. Well, maybe eventually you'll see some catch-up postings...
