Times they are a changin'

Fall is my favorite time of year! It's the time of year when everything changes around you ... and often they are good changes. In this past week, Gabriel has started cooing and chattering up a storm. If we are talking, he talks too. He's also suddenly decided that he wants to sit up and play. We took out his bumbo seat and he sat for about 10 minutes until he spit-up. But I must say, I couldn't believe how happy he was to be sitting like a big kid. I just can't believe how fast he's growing. This weekend we plan on getting the back to the high chair out so he can start sitting at the table with us. He doesn't seem too fond of being on the floor anymore! And in about 2 weeks the boy is going to start eating solids. Solids? OMG! He'll be 4 months old and can eat solids. Makes me a little sad.

Aitana, well, she changes everyday. She is saying complete sentences, perfectly repeating new words we say and really trying to say her abc's and 123's. It's so much fun. There's not much we can hide from her either ... she picks up on everything we do and say. All this means that my baby girl is not such a baby anymore. She's about to turn 2 in 2 weeks. There are so many people who ask if she's 3, and that makes me even sadder! I'm in awe of everything she can do and everything she is learning.

The biggest change to come is our new home. With the addition of our sonny boy, we decided it was time to buy a house and make it our home. There is a countdown clock on here and you can countdown with me! There are 16 days left before it's ours. It's a new house and a lovely neighborhood! We are so excited to have found a community where we can put down roots. I can't wait!
