A little bit moody

Alright, feeling sentimental...so time to blog:). I've been a little on edge, feeling somewhat moody. But also sentimental-yes, we'll call it that! I know I can at least blame some of it on my fav. time of the month (haa), but it may also have something to do with the fact that my little guy has succeeded in wearing me out the past few days! He's teething...yet again...and I think I can tell when it bothers him b/c he becomes more aggressive, a little whiny, and is into everything x's 2. My parents have been here, been trying to help them pack up the old house-they've been a great help as always. Even so! He has been running circles around me. Keeps me fit, yes. But makes me think I need a wee break every now and then. Knowing, of course, that if & when I take one I will instantly miss him-because this is what I do. And I'm having a little trouble not feeling guilty about needing some time, sometimes. Which is silly, b/c I believe it's completely normal. But anyway, thinking way too much, further tiring myself! On a brighter note:D, I absolutely love him! This is where the sentimental kicks in big time. He's so sweet, so bright, has such an amazing sense of humor & personality. He mutters and repeats words now, walks (staggers, really:)), feeds us snacks, and can put "gas" in his car. Haha-so smart (of course I think so). But, really, you show him something once and forget about it, and later he's doing it! A couple days ago- (maybe yesterday? hmm)-Steven got him up from his nap & brought him to me in the recliner. He just laid his head on me and let me rock him forever. Soooo so sweet, that's the stuff that you just can't fully put into words. We're working on "sugar"-lol, would like more of that...and "love you"...and of course "MA MA"! I think he has a bit of trouble with the M's-so for now I believe I am still BOB. Which is fine by me, as long as he's addressing me:). So. Yes, I've had some (very) stressed moments, but I've also had some serious fun with him. When everyone was packing up the house & I watched him it was like hanging out with my little buddy-amazing fun! Anyway-could go on about that for real. Bottom line is: he is sometimes more work than I think I can do, but he is completely worth it in every way. !!
Another bright note-we're moving soon! Haaaappy about this! The house is cleaned out for the most part and we're ready to paint! Finding the time with a 1yr old is perhaps a problem, but we'll figure it out. The house is a little smaller than ours now, BUT it's so cute-and has like 4-5 acres?? So plenty of room for my boy, who loves nothing more than playing outside. It's a little out in the country, which I love. I've decided I'm really not a city girl, haha. Not that this is a huge city, but I love open space & a moon you can see. So we're really excited, & can't wait to see how it turns out once we've made it our own.
As far as life goes, God is for real good to us. He protected my mom the other day near an awful accident, and he protects us all the time. He's blessed me an insane amount...with my family, my amazing husband who tirelessly helps me, & our youngest blessing-an awesome son. Which reminds me, I haven't even read the Bible yet today, I don't think. So that's what I need to do. I hate that sometimes I don't feel like it, but I always love it when I do. I'm of course not perfect, but I truly want to be the person I should be. That has love, & asks for strength...and boy do I ever (ask for strength). A lot! And wisdom, and all that good stuff:). So, moody or no, I need to ask. I'm tired now & can't think of an appropriate close! nite:)
