Babies are Amazing!

I have to say that just when I think I have seen the amazing things that God can do, He shows me how much more He is capable of! One would think that seeing the Universe and all those stars would about sum it up! However, in the last four weeks I have watched my son learn so many things, even in one day! God made babies and that about sums it up!!

He is now five months old. He tries so hard to eat our food and wants to drink from a glass like we do! He crawls, or rather inches in reverse. He can't figure out the forward gears yet, but he is getting there. He is laughing at us when we play with him with such vigor that we feel like clowns trying to do anything that makes him laugh! He had his first swim in a lake and doesn't much care for the whole water temprature thing, apparently he is more of the warm bath water style of lake water. He loves his bath time and playing with his bath toys. He doesn't even care that he is in water, he just chases his toys! All this in about four weeks. That is mind blowing. Each day I have started waiting expectantly for something new to develop.

We have been road tripping pretty nonstop since our return to the States and he has taken it like a champ, not just the three flights to get to the US, but hours and hours of car riding. We have started waiting to drive at night though because he is just a very active baby boy that wants to play during the day, period.

Being a mother gets cooler every day and I can't thank God enough for the opportunity of raising wee Joshua!
