March On

In March,

we....


celebrated 7 years (5 addresses, 4 states, 2 deployments, 1 baby, and 10,000 good memories) of marriage,

The BEST chocolates in the entire world. All with salt and/or caramel. Does my husband know me or what?

read stories and played with little monkey feet,

                                     


took Buddy to the doctor and got his first shots,

Mommy *may have* cried more than Garrett.

met Great-Grandmother, Nana, 

got our first deliveries of fresh, local produce, and got excited for lettuce to be in season because it's just so delicious fresh from the porch,

had visitors, went visiting, started working in the garden again, and waited for Spring to warm up. (It hasn't quite gotten there yet, but I'll take a slow warm up if it means warding off the sweltering Summer for just a little longer.)

 Buddy grew and grew and grew. At last check he was 10 lbs. even and 21 inches. Still just grazing the bottom of the growth chart curves and that's all right with us. He is smiley and a pretty good sleeper. He loves when we sing to him. He is a pensive little guy, looking so serious when he's taking in the world. We might just let him stick around.
