As usual I am late with this post. We've been busy busy around the Saksa home! We traveled to Denver for a wedding over Labor Day weekend and then the following weekend we traveled to Texas for the Aggie football game and to see family.
Anderson is still just as fun and active as can be! He's still crusing EVERYWHERE and standing a little on his own and taking a few steps on his own but overall he's still pretty content with his cruising. He gets into everything and especailly loves drawers. He loves the dishwasher, the refridgerater and the pantry and especially pulling ziplock bags out of a bottom drawer in the kitchen. I always laugh because we have alphabet magnents on this fridge and he pulls them off and I find them in the funniest places :) He still babbles all the time, says 'mama' and 'dada' and 'ella' for Bella and 'mmm' for more. He waves and claps and sings. Makes my heart smile :) He loves to eat finally after getting his reflux meds figured out and is really good at feeding himself now. Unfrotunately the poor guy still only really has 2 teeth that he can use. He's now nursing just twice a day and drinking a cup of breast milk at lunch. Over the next month and a half we will completely wean from breastfeeding and start transitioning to whole cow's milk. I can't believe we're so close to havinga toddler!! He still sleeps and naps great and loves going to daycare. Somedays I feel like my heart could just bust with how much love I have for this sweet little boy!
Todd is busy busy busy with work. He'll be going back to Vegas in October for Green Flag as an instructor to prepare his squadron for their January deployment. He'll also find out in October if and when he'll get into Weapons School. So lots of change may happen soon OR none at all.
As for me, still working 2-3 days a week and loving that. Started my first two doctoral classses and loving them. It's a great challenge and just enough balance in my life.
We're looking forward to Todd's parents visiting in a few weeks. Overall Octrober should be a quiet month around here then November brings Anderson's first birthday and then the holidays!
