Since Kimball has been born, I have come to appreciate several things in my life.

• The smell of a freshly mopped floor (because that means that it's clean from clutter and germs!)


• Time with Jacob (sometimes I forget just how good of a friend he is for me)


• Watching how fast my baby is progressing


• Teaching Kimball and seeing him pick it up


• Quiet time


• Cleanliness in general (it's just so nice...)


• Sleeping without being woken up by anyone, or when I am, it's by my baby crawling over my face and screaming

I love my life. It's awesome. Kimball is my baby angel monster. He is into so much right now, and everyone keeps telling me that when he really gets the hang of walking it only gets worse! I don't know how that's possible.

Speaking of walking, he's taken six steps in a row now! We tried getting a video last night, but he was too tired. So I'll try again today and see what we get.
