Use your words!

Ok, well I wish I could say that and it actually mean something- but, I can't. Porter says Mom, and Dad (I don't hear this one, but his dad claims he says it). I've gotten him to say kitty kitty a couple of times on separate days, and doggie a couple times within a couple minutes one day. Aaaaand that's it. He signs milk, more, all done, bath, and eat. He points to things, he knows what he wants and communicates in his own ways, he "reads" his books to me and himself in his babble, he makes...

Teething

These pics were taken a couple of weeks ago. There aren't too many smiles around here as of late. The culprit? One of his lower molars. It broke through a week ago, but has been bothering him like crazyyy. His two top molars that are in were a piece of cake (at least that's how he acted), but this one? NOT FUN. For any of us. He's been sleeping horribly. (last night he was up 3 times screaming, and up for the day at 6:15am, 2 hours before he normally gets up). This mama is tired, and strung...

Currently...

I saw this meme on a couple different blogs and decided to join in :) Currently, I am... Watching: Revenge and Parenthood. I spent a couple hours last weekend watching the last few episodes of season 1 of Revenge, to catch up and remind myself of what was going on. I seriously love that show. And Parenthood never disappoints :) Loving: My new hair cut (and color, which isn't too different) Listening to: Kyle Andrews- Turn the Radio Up Awesome, really upbeat song! Thinking about: How I work too much and miss my P :( That I love...

Color Me Rad 5K Denver 2012

Saturday, Porter and I did our first 5K! (I walked it, of course) It was sooo much fun! Everyone wears white, and throughout the race you get covered in dyed corn starch and sprayed with dyed water. You end up looking like a big tie dye mess :) ...
