Nate is 8 months and I'm 23...

Nathan turned 8 months on monday and I cant believe it! He is getting to be so grown up! He is so full of life and wants to explore and get into everything! He took his first 2 steps on wednesday and it was really exciting. He was standing up and playing with a ball that was on the foot rest and it rolled off and he went after it. I would love for him to start walking because he is already into everything so he might as well walk to things instead of crawl (then his legs, hands, and the tops of his feet wouldnt be so dirty all the time!) So he is now in training :) He also got his second tooth at the beginning of last week. His 2 teeth are so cute! I love them!



Yesterday was my birthday and I had such a fun day! I got everything I wanted and then some! Skyler got me a new camera, I actually got it the day after thanksgiving, but he was nice enough to let me use it before my birthday :) My mom took me out to lunch on tuesday because she was getting work done on her mouth yesterday so she couldnt really talk. We went to Red Lobster and had my favorite coconut shrimp! She is also getting me a shirt I want and I am so excited to get it! Yesterday my mother-in-law and sister-in-law took me out to lunch to Olive Garden which was really yummy! They gave me a really cute tank top and sweater! Both skyler's grandparents (The Webbs and Ences) got me a card and money which I am so grateful for! You guys are so sweet!! Last night I went to Red Robin for my birthday dinner (it just opened on wednesday). All my closest friends were there so it was so much fun!! My girlfriends Amy, Jackie, and Kaitlin got me a shirt, necklace, bracelet, purse, and black heels!! They are all so cute and I cant wait to wear them!! (you will see them in the pictures I took last night) I want to thank everyone that gave me a card, present, called, text, or left me a message on facebook saying happy birthday! You guys are all so awesome and made my birthday one of the best I have ever had!!
