The holidays are here!

Wow! I can hardly believe that Fred is 7 1/2 months old today. Crazy! What a big boy he is becoming.

Today we had a potluck luncheon at church and I remarked to Fred's dad and Fred's grandmothers as he was whisked away by the pastor's daughter that we have quite the social butterfly. In fact, I made the same comment on Thursday at Thanksgiving dinner over at Fred's Great Aunt Marsha's house.

I just can't believe how quickly time is passing by! Fred is lucky to have so many friends and so much family that love him so much. Speaking of friends...

We went and spent some time with Fred's future wife and her family this week. What a great time we always have!

Fred has also been playing with some new toys his future mother-in-law brought over.

Since we've been gone...

...out of our minds anyway... not gone really far. :-)
So much has been going on in the world of Baby Fred! Since you heard from us last, Fred has seen his mom turn 30 years old (oh, man, can you imagine how old she'll be when Fred realizes that his mom is old!), we've had Halloween, Fred has started eating foods like carrots and green beans, Fred has started sitting up by himself, he can roll, and he is beginning to roll like a log to get places.
I've been really amazed how quickly time is flying by! Fred is changing by the minute, and I can hardly believe that the holidays are coming upon us. It seems like it wasn't that long ago that I was just beginning to see my stomach growing with the baby in my belly, and that was just over a year ago! Fred is still so new to us, but I'm amazed by how I cannot imagine life without him. I can't remember what I did with all of the time that we use now taking care of Fred.
Wow.
Here are some pictures from various things that have been going on in the last few weeks. I'll blog tomorrow about today. :-)
