I will be the first to admit that having a child truly changes your life in ways that no one could ever tell you-I assumed posting updates on a blog once a month would be the least of my chores-who was I kidding?
Quickly approaching his 8 month birthday, Gabriel has mastered rolling both ways, scoots along like an Army soldier, and has tried several new solids (from rice and oatmeal to sweet potatoes, prunes, and peas!) We've been working around the yard as well but the weather is just so awful that we aim to not go outside unless absolutely necessary til sometime in late September! HA! Our haunted house is still slotted for the Halloween weekend so we do have to get our bums in gear!
We had a lovely visit from all of our relatives over the past few weeks. Opa and Nonna came from Germany and stayed in Tallahassee for two weekends. We got to go to Mass as a big 'ole family. Aunt Virginia also came up and stayed here at our house for a few nights-what a relief to have such a wonderful caregiver on hand! (She's done this before and man, is she good at it!) Ruthie recently passed two of her certifications last weekend for teaching with flying colors-go Rudi! The next weekend Mere and Pawpaw visited and celebrated (a bit early-but none-the-less) their 10 year (right, Ma?) anniversary-wholly cow! Gubby got to go swimming with Mere and lay out in the sunshine buck naked for a few minutes-sure was comfy!
Work is work for me-couple a clients in both Leon and Wakulla Counties and Mike is doing well at FSU. The summer semester is ending soon and the fall financial aid week will be welcomed! We want to ask all our family and friends to pray especially for one of the family's patriarchs-Thomas Prost, Sr. as he's recently moved in with the youngest Prost son and for Opa Prost, too as he'll be undergoing surgery shortly. We love and miss you all and can't wait to see everyone again soon!
