Wow, so it's been a long time since I have updated this thing..

and..

Even bigger wow!
We have a lot of news to share with you all!

First,
Everything has been going well with all of us.
Steven has been working really hard at work and he's doing an amazing job taking care of Landon and me and being the daddy!
:]

Second.
Our little baby boy isn't all so little any more. :[
He's getting so big!
At hour last appointment he was 25 in I believe, and 14 pounds! Biiiig Boy!
He's smiling constantly, and learning who mommy and daddy are, he follows us whenever we walk by him and he talks all the time!
He's just beginning to laugh, he doesn't do it often but he's just beginning to get the hang of it, so we're working on getting the little booger to really get it out! :]
He's in his crib finally.. Setting it up and putting him in it was a lot harder for me than I thought it would be. I cried pretty hard seeing our little boy all snuggled up in his absolutely adorable crib.
Him being a big baby now means no more sleeping and cuddling in bed with mommy, and it made me pretty emotional to realize it. So, its been hard but I'm finally starting to accept it, although I get up like 20 times through out the night to check on him because I'm overly paranoid. So in reality even though he's sleeping so much better now I'm getting even less sleep.
:[ It's hard, definitely, but I'm just starting to get used to it, it's been easier on me having Steven home for five days, but he went back to work tonight, so this is my first night alone in bed with the little guy in his crib... wish me luck!

And for some REALLY big news...but no more important than our little angel..
We're ENGAGED!!! :]
Amazing isn't it!!!! I'm so happy, and so excited to finally start planning our wedding and to begin the rest of our lives together as a married couple :]
He, of course, was so original and romantic, and he picked the absolute perfect ring!
It's beautiful, princess cut three center stones, with four tiny diamonds on both sides, and the band is white gold. It's 1K total weight...super super sparkly and shiny! It's one or two letters away from a perfect stone clarity...My darling fiance had amazing taste and knows how to pick em!!!

This is how he did it..
:]

It all started while we were sitting at home I was rocking Landon in the recliner, and Steven was napping on the couch [or so I thought, apparently he was faking it haha he said he was nervous]. Then his phone rang, what I thought was CDI, was really his mom calling. Since I answered she hung up, and Steven pretended to call work back, all the while she was calling him back. He faked a whole conversation about him having to go into work.. It was his second night off of his five days, and as soon as he "hung up" I of course start bawling because it was the same night we set up Landon's crib, so I wanted him with me that night.
He told me that they only needed him to work on the line and he could be home in an hour or two, or he could be there all night...needless to say, I was very upset.
So he tried to calm me down and told me that even though he was going to be at work, he still wanted me to go over to his parents for dinner.
Of course I agreed, so I drove over there, and talked to his mom for a bit, she told me how his dad used to get called in to work all the time..and that made me feel a little better..
And she kept getting calls from "sarah" who was really Steven giving her a play by play...Then he called me..he said to make it more believable, and told me he was going to be there til 130.
haha his mom said she wanted to smack him for doing that to me.
Any way, she started dinner, and I was sitting on the couch holding Landon and Brendan came into the living room.
He asked if I had been watching the Office lately and asked if I could go home and get a season so we could watch it that night.
I really didn't care since I was in such a bad mood, so I had him watch Landon and I left to get it..
I walked in the door and there was Steven, standing there with candles surrounding him..I cried the second I saw him.
I couldn't believe he pulled that whole thing off.
He said he knew me so well that he knew it would work.
He parked on the other side of the apartment complex because he knows I only go one way instead of the other to go home haha.
So it really was an amazing night..and I had him home!!! :]
So yay! We're engaged!!!!
So starting probably tomorrow I'm going to get started planning everything!!
I'm so excited, and so happy, and so very much in love.

So yes, its been a long crazy weekend!

Daddy unfortunately had to go back to work tonight.
But luckily I have the day off tomorrow! Woo!
SO now the babay and I are going to watch American Idol..GO KRIS AND ADAM!
:]

Then its off to beddy bye.
