So speaking of seven (from previous post)… we’re celebrating our 7th anniversary today!

Oh, memories of that day… :)

And now scarce are the just-two-of-us-moments. ;-P But guess we don’t mind our little “light bulb” (translate to Chinese). Most of the time. Heh.

Lots of here & there and this & that these past few weeks: outings, watching Daddy play frisbee and Mommy race, Elias’ first wedding and Halloween (+ costume)… So 8 months is apparently a big one developmentally — sitting up (and in a high chair, booster and the grocery cart!), rolling over and back, crawling and… <gasp!> standing! Time to lower the crib? But more than that, his personality is really shining through and he’s acting more like a boy than an infant these days. *sob*

So Y’s deep, profound epiphany for our anniversary this year: if marriage is learning about yourself and how to make oneself a better mate for the other, what has parenting taught us? :)) Lots. LOTS.

No romantic dinner tonight but our now standing operating procedure of eating (whilst standing) around the kitchen island, feeding bub in his bumbo. Good times! But we did kinda celebrate along with Uncle Dan’s b-day this past weekend.

To the years to come… <3
