It's been awhile

And in this while my son has been keeping me busy!! He seems to have gotten taller overnight while also walking around getting in to EVERYTHING!! But I wouldn't trade it for the world :)

Since my hiatus we had a trip up to Ohio to surprise my amazing sister for her birthday. I was surprised at how well this kid did for traveling so much. He only had a breakdown in his last hour or two of a 8-9 hr trip [driving up and driving back]. I have no idea how people manage to travel further than that in a car with a toddler.

It's weird to think of my son as a toddler now. I feel like his growing up has happened in a blink. I always was told and understood how much I needed to appreciate my son during this past year because they grow up SO fast but I guess I didn't expect it to sneak up on me like this. He's also quickly approaching the need to get his first haircut too. He's looking rather hippie-ish. Haha! But it's adorable and I don't have the heart to cut his little curls off. They're precious and I doubt I'll get them back if I do....

He still doesn't say words. He makes sounds that SOUND like he's trying to repeat what we're saying. Like 'kitty cat' and 'dog'. But is terribly inconsistent. However, Vik does babble constantly. And I mean constantly! Guess he takes after his mama!

Now I end this with a couple photos taken while in Ohio. Here's Viktor at Grandpa Bob's house with Ty [that dog has been around since I was maybe 12 or so... super old dog now]


And a picture of Viktor with Grandpa Bob. I love this photo cause even though Vik's like "sheesh ma, quit taking my photo" you can see Bob just beaming. I love it!!
