Our little family...: May 2011

I don't know what we are doing all the time that it's been so long since I blogged last! I guess just being a roly poly and attempting to learn to crawl and fun stuff like that. W is SO CLOSE. We are thinking surely he'll get moving within a week or two. He started by getting up on his hands and toes...then he started doing push-ups (literally). Now he's getting into practically a football stance(getting ready for the future, I guess). And he'll get on his hands and knees and just rock back and forth forever. He just hasn't figured out how to move those arms when he's got himself lifted up. Should be soon tho!

Daddy is definitely going to have to move his crib down TONIGHT because this morning when I got out of the shower, I heard him talking and moving around in his bed. Then I heard a noise that sounded like him hitting on his crib, so I went to look at our tv to see what he was doing. He was sitting up with his hands on top of the outside bar of his crib, beating on it. So all he had to do was lift himself up (which I'm pretty sure he can do pretty easily) and topple right over!! Scary!

I finally gave in and took him to the nursery at church. I started a fabulous bible study so I had to have somewhere to put him! So he goes to the big nursery in the main church while I'm at bible study on Wednesdays and during church on Sunday he goes to the small nursery at the Loft. He's done good so far!! Our pager has not gone off yet telling us he's goin bonkers screaming, hopefully me bragging doesn't jinx us. :)

I am loving every second of staying home with him!!!!!!!! I haven't had even ONE second thought about it. I work a thousand times harder than I ever did at work, but I am so happy. I love the work that I am doing and I cherish the time spent watching Walker learn and grow every day! I think (hope) that Jeffrey is happy too, getting to come home to all the laundry done and clean house and dinner cooked! And happy baby and mommy! I thank Jesus 239487 times a day for blessing our family so much that we can make it work for me to stay home. Our God is an AWESOME GOD.

His hair is still standing up, as you can see. No, we don't do anything to it to make it do that. Everyone asks me that. It's just naturally crazy, and I love it! We don't go anywhere that people don't say how much they love his hair. It's his trademark :) Precious little wild-haired angel <3

Here are a few pictures of him recently...he is a little fish in his pool! We took him to the neighborhood pool this past weekend, too, and he got in his little float and kicked like it was nobody's business. He loved it! Altho he kept trying to drink the chlorine water and I kept having to say no and sit him upright. Jeffrey said it was inevitable that he would drink chlorine water, which I know he will swallow some, but GULPING it is avoidable. We're gonna have to work on teaching him that community pee water isn't healthy, ick!
