1. It’s only Tuesday and I feel like enough has happened that it should be at least Thursday. A non-sleeping baby probably has just a tiny bit to do with that. I’ve been assured that this stage won’t last forever….today I’m not very hopeful that that is true.
2. Will gets dedicated at church this coming weekend…I’m really excited about it! We missed our first chance to get him dedicated when he was about a month old and I’m really glad that we’ll have the chance to do it now. For those that are wondering, we will not have Will baptized until he’s old enough to make that decision on his own. Instead, our church does baby dedications where Greg and I make a promise to raise Will in a way that honors and serves the Lord. It’ll be an exciting weekend!
3. I’m having a major guilt trip right now because not only did I fail to work out today, but I also ate a calorie-filled (and delicious) lunch today with my best friend, Jen. So not helpful for the cruise-body! I’m debating working out after I finish writing this. Sleep is currently winning in the internal struggle.
4. I realized a few days ago that I never posted my 10-month “Dear Will” letter. I’ll put that one up later this week along with the 11-month letter. Both are written – I just need to type them up! I really am amazed that I only have one more letter to write to him in his first year. Bittersweet 
5. Seriously, Jake…Vienna?
6. Will has finally learned how to play with the ball popper properly. He used to throw a gigantic hissy fit if you even so much as thought about taking the balls away from him to put them back in the chute. I ended up putting it away until he got a little bit older and could appreciate it more. I took it out today and he loved it. He even figured out how to put the balls back in the chute on his own!
7. Speaking of toys, what are your favorite toys for 1-2 year olds? I’m trying to figure out what we want to buy Will for his birthday…we’re looking at a sand and water table, a Little Tykes Cozy Car, or some nice blocks. I also need to get lists together for family & friends…leave a comment with your favorite toys!
8. Are you a fan on Facebook yet? I’m getting much closer to 400 fans! I promise a very special giveaway is coming once I reach that mark!
9. Greg sent me an e-mail earlier this week telling me that he’s become a bit of a “photo snob.” (His words, not mine). I love that I’ve had a positive influence on him in that department and I love that he used that terminology to describe his dislike of big chain portrait places. Absolutely love it.
10. I have issues with business card designs. I can never settle on one I like and I go back and forth and agonize over it for days before I finally place an order. I sat in my office and messed around with different design and photo combinations for no less than two hours on Sunday afternoon and never ended up ordering anything. I finally went back to my first design, updated with new photos and it still took me at least an hour to finish! I ordered 300 of those suckers so I won’t have to go through this torture again for a few months!
11. Sorry this was a picture-less addition of ToT. See #1. Busy Libby means that my camera stays put in it’s bag. Tomorrow I will get it out and take at least one picture of my child…I will! (And I’ll work out too. I’m just dying to revisit plank jacks and all the other crazy things plank position exercises in Level 2 of the 30 Day Shred).
