chili cook-off.
Chris's dad participated in our local Chili Cook-off today ... and received a trophy for Best in Class - No Beans! Nathan and I went towards the end of the cook-off to check it out. He loved dancing to the music that the band played and ran all around the pavilion. Maybe next year he can help cook :)

thirteen months.
A bit belated, as always, but it seems that another month has flown by. Nathan is getting SO big. He re-discovered his bouncy chair the other day and wanted to play in it. I thought it was going to break! My little baby is changing into a rough and tumble little boy before my eyes.
Some recent Nathan-isms include:
* an absolute obsession with the "I am a Gummy Bear" song. Go ahead and google it -- it will be stuck in your head for DAYS
* Nate's favorite word is 'dog'. It is his first word in the morning and one of the last ones at night. He knows that a barking sound comes from dogs and he imitates it. He also points to people and calls them 'dog' ... which can be both embarrassing and hilarious in public
*He knows and says the difference, on command between Dadda and Mama ... or mom-mom, depending on the moment. Either way, I love it
* Nate says 'hey' in the most casual and non-chalant way
* baby fart noises -- Nate likes to blow on your arm, shoulder, leg, whatever .. and make lots of fun noises
*couch climbing and running -- his new sport!
Here are a few of his 13 month shots, as well as a few from the last few weeks:

wedding.
One of my very dear friends got married this weekend. Out of our college roomie group, she is the third of four to get married. One to go :)
I am so happy for Courtney and Matt! I hope that they have a long, blessed life together! I was a bridesmaid and Chris was a groomsman -- we got to walk down the aisle together, again. While this was certainly a different capacity, it made me think about our journey together. I'm so glad that I married my best friend.
After unexpectedly finding my smaller digital camera (not the digital SLR) that would fit into my wristlet, I was able to take some photos to capture the evening. Here are my favorites:
