10 months old and a year ago today...


Braden is 10 months old! We can't believe that he is almost a year old already. He is crawling all over and gets into everything, but he is so much happier and less frustrated with life that it is amazingly worth it. I can't believe how quickly he is learning new things! It just amazes me how kids grow and learn. He waves bye-bye, turns lights on and off, points to everything, crawls up stairs, signs "all done", and I could probably just keep going on and on, but I'll stop now. :) He loves crawling around with us on the floor - particularly Justin. That is the typical "daddy's home" routine - chase each other around the house and do some rough and tumble playing. Braden loves it, and Justin does too for that matter!

Justin and I went to the beach yesterday because it was so beautiful and warm we just couldn't pass it up. The water has already cooled down so much, we wore our swimsuits but decided just to put our feet in the water! Anyway, as we were walking we realized that one year ago to the day Justin was here in Virginia interviewing for medical school and we had no idea where we would be ending up, or if we'd be ending up in medical school. It's amazing how much can change in a year! We are so glad we are here. It's been a great few months and I'm sure will prove to be a great few years!
