We have a mover!

Man this kid just never stops! She's like the energizer bunny! She's gotta crawl everywhere and touch everything. I'm in a constant state of anxiousness. And now she's discovered how to climb up our bottom step! It's time for baby-proofing. Not my favorite time. I am more afraid I'm going to fall over the gates than anything. I'm short and chubby, it can't be a great combination for those baby gates! It's like asking for a tumble down the stairs just as I get Emma to sleep! And to think I always wanted to have a two story place. What the heck was I thinking!?

I joked with Julie that I was on a role in a message to her this morning. I lack creativity when I sit to blog though. It's almost as though I used every ounce of sarcasm and creativity when I was prego. Dang. That sucks. But it is not a good reason to get knocked up again. I'll live without my wit for now. Although if I ever get around to writing my book, I'll need it back... The funny thing is, I can't even remember what I wrote to Julie this morning! haha, THAT is what I call Momnesia. I heard about it on the John Tush radio show (yes, I know that I called him John Tush). But it is an excellent description of my memory, or lack there of, now. I wonder if God intended all mothers to have no memory after giving birth for a reason. Interesting... I wonder how many mom's will actually admit they have momnesia or if they just deny that they have no memory.

Speaking of admissions... I have to admit that I really miss Seattle right now because if I was home I'd be preparing to take a trip downtown to drink coffee and people watch until it got dark, then I'd admire the pretty streets all lit up with Christmas lights. Instead, I'm still trying to figure out if people here really decorate their houses and yards or if they're all Grinches like Nathan. That's right, I called him a Grinch. He is one. He doesn't like to decorate and he isn't a very happy person at Christmas-time. I have always called him a Grinch though, maybe he was born that way. I think I need that song on the blog....
