My son is 5!!!



I've become worse at worse at this blogging thing of mine. Pregnancy really throws a doosy your way. And let me just say that having done this two times before really makes no difference. I was just lamenting to one of my biffs last night how remembering things concerning others and staying organzied that way has proven 10x easier then just like the day to day with me...or what I said, when I said it, did my question get answered, and so on and so on. I mean, seriously! But really the point of this post is another lamenting....the fact that my handsome Brian man is now five. I really can't believe that he's five now. It really does seem like only yesterday that we were having him, finding out we were pregnant, trying to figure out life as a married couple and as a military family.
Brian is named after a friend of ours who was tragically killed in 2004, about a month after we were married. Christopher actually knew him in high school and I knew him from church and then we realized we both knew him and we had been friends since High School. Our Brian's middle name is Christopher, after his Daddy.



Me and Brian's namesake

Brian is a five year old boy and that's really all I can say about that, LOL! He's super smart, super physical, always moving and has the attention span of maybe a fly now, instead of a knat. I love that he's 1000% boy ALL THE TIME!! He's always taking things apart, putting them back together, or wanting to. First it was an obsession with cars, and now we've moved on to bigger things like the physics of fire and how does the air conditioning work. He always is saying something funny and his baby book is just chaulk full of funny things. And now that he's five I've filled out the last of his baby book and I'm going to have to get another book where we just write down the funny things that he is saying.

And now as we are ready to add number 3 to our brood I feel myself getting sentimental about the fact that he was once in tummy. Where does time go? I feel like I've been savoring every moment but its just flying by so fast!

What moments have been flying by so fast for you? What are you needing to savor more in life?
