10 Months OLD?

Crazy!  Time has flown by and it's all been amazing and challenging!  Aaron is busy bustling around the house via crawling, cruising, and walking with a walker.  We had 9 month photos taken by Stephanie Doll Photography.  She does an amazing job catching Aaron "in the moment" and really captures his personality each session!  I can't believe we have only one more left in our package!  It's really almost been a year already!  Here are some of my favorites from the day, but to be honest, it was hard to choose just three!
I thought for sure by now I'd feel like I had some sense of balance back in my life.  Well...that has NOT happened.  I'm still working out how to even have time for myself - to work out, create crafty stuff, bake, etc.  I have to take time off of work just to get my car worked on, a hair cut, or to get groceries.  That is CRAZY!  I'm hoping to figure out how to afford to work a little less to get a little time in for me. Yes, even grocery shopping alone is considered "me" time now.  Ben and I don't get much "us" time either.  We need to work on that.  It's hard to leave but it's nice to get a break as well.
We are gearing up for Halloween.  We have visited two pumpkin patches, taken photos with pumpkins, made some Halloween-y crafts and are ready for the candy!  Okay, Ben and I are ready for candy.  We hope to get out and trick-or-treat with some friends and their kids.  Will post pictures soon!  Okay, that's all for now!  Hope you enjoyed the photos as much as we do!
