David's 25th Birthday & My 100th Post!!!

Happy 100th Post!!! & Happy 25th Birthday David!!!

Today David is celebrating his birthday in Iraq. He is really sick and I get the feeling he just wants to be home. I so wish I could be with him today.
This is my 100th blog post. I was looking back and wow, a lot has changed since I started this blog. I wonder how many people actually read this. Sometimes after a more personal post I hope no one reads this and then other times when I feel like I have something meaningful to say I hope the whole world reads this.
I was playing with Jacob today when I realized this is exactly how I want to spend my days. I love being there for my son and watching him grow. Soon I will be going back to work and I will be wishing for these days back.
Jacob is starting to test his boundaries though and in doing so testing me to see what I will let him do without getting into trouble. He is also starting to jabber up a storm. I have no idea what he is saying or trying to say but I love all the babbling.
Jacob's doctor appointment yesterday went well. It was just his 9 month well baby. He now has an inhaler just in case he gets wheezy. He weighs 19 pounds 10 ounces. I didn't know that I was supposed to be brushing his 5 teeth but I started this morning. Jacob's pediatrician, who I absolutly adore, also informed me that I can use toothpaste with flouride and it won't kill him if I just use a tiny drop. I also found out that Jacob can eat scrambled eggs, fish, and well pretty much anything he won't choke on besides peanut butter and honey. I am now glad I asked and didn't just trust the parenting books or WIC.
I am back to selling Avon. Well I haven't given out any brochures or taken any orders yet but I got all the mumble jumble so I can. I am hoping this will bring in a little extra income. I don't plan to make thousands but just some to help out with Christmas and all the extra expenses that seem to arise in the winter.
Jacob has been kissing like crazy and oh how I love those slobbery, wet kisses.
