Long time, no blog

So apparently I suck at blogging. My sincere apologies for the lack of blog posts for the past, oh... I don't know, 6 months. But in my defense I have a pretty wonderful excuse. I love being a mom! From the time I wake up to the time I go to bed my life is consumed with all things Lydia, and I wouldn't have it any other way! I cant believe how much she has grown! My sweet little baby is on her way to being a big girl. These days she's full of tricks: rolling around (everywhere!), sitting up, saying "mama" and "baba" (that's what she calls Adam, which is Arabic for daddy), starting to scoot/crawl (she goes backwards instead of forwards), and eating finger foods. She is now one week shy of 8 months old. I know everyone says it, but it really is true, they grow up too fast! I'm learning to treasure every moment with her and I'm so thankful to have a loving husband who works extra hard so that I don't have to miss a single one :) .
