Don't want to forget this...

So - I had to write this down before I forgot how special this morning was.  This might seem like no big deal, but I've been really emotional lately about having another baby while Kelson is still a baby himself.  Today - Kelson and I met a friend at an indoor play area (the Ark in Coppell...it's awesome).  They were running late, so Kelson and I had the run of the place for about 30 minutes.  He of course wanted to climb in the "big kid area" which requires a little adult help to get up and over a few steps.  Since I was the only one there, me and my GIANT 9 month preggo belly started climbing.  Kelson was being so sweet.  He only wanted to climb while holding my hand...which left both of us with just one hand to crawl with, but it was worth it.  He would hold out his finger and say "Mama hold".  Just melts my heart...and then when we got to the top he wanted to slide next to me and hold my hand.  He was laughing and giggling so hard and just yelling Mama.  We did this for about 30 minutes and he kept holding my finger and giving me kisses along the way.  I just looked at him and thought - wow - only 3 more weeks of just me and Kelson playing together.  For the rest of his life, there will be someone else with us.  It made me happy and sad at the same time as I would like to just freeze Kelson at the age he is now.  He loves to hold my hand and give me kisses and hugs.

After he had tuckered himself out - he proceeded to sit on my lap for about 45 minutes and eat (which is a huge accomplishment in itself).  He had to be in my lap with one hand holding mine.  It's almost like he knows that I'll be having a C section and won't be able to pick him up, etc for a while.

We ran a few quick errands and then grabbed Chipotle on the way home.  We then shared a bowl together (he ate meat, beans, cheese, tomatoes, and guacamole!!!).  Pretty much the perfect morning.  Anywho - just had to share.  I love you sweet Kelson.
