Visits

The Daniel man and I went to visit my Aunt Lee today. (She's my Dad's older sister) She lives in Kingwood, so after Daniel and I got up, and after his first morning nap, we headed to her house. We had a great time visiting and looking at old pictures, and she and her granddaughter were excited to see Daniel for the first time (minus seeing pictures). Besides visiting, it was great because I came home with two new purses, a makeup bag, fun music cd's for Daniel, and pictures! Thank you Aunt Lee!!!

Jonathan was here for a little visit when we got home, and it was always nice to see him. :)

Then off to beat Ratchet and Clank for some good "down time" after putting Daniel to bed.

All in all, a good day!!

Hi!

Life is wonderful. I can't imagine life without Daniel these days - he's so wonderful I just love him more than I could ever say. He's a perfect little man, most of the time. :)

God has been providing for us along the way: we had car trouble with the clutch going out and had to replace it, but that's fixed. Then, due to a stupid mistake, the windshield had to be replaced, and eventually the hood too, but we bent that back into shape and it will do until we can get a new one. No hurry there.

A very big praise is, at the low time in funds, the Lord provided Stephen with a VERY nice raise! Praise God! He knew we needed it to help pay bills, and buy diapers. :-P

Daniel is changing daily and just today pretty much rolled over. He found his legs, knees today and is getting a lot more wiggly and moving around on the floor. Silly little man, he's so stinkin' cute. I pulled out some bigger clothes and put a 6 month suit on him and his newest onesies are 6 month. They're a little too big, but plenty long enough. My problem is that he's out-growing the length, not the width. :) One of his new clothes was really cute today - until he pooped and it leaked. :-/

I'm starting to memorize Psalm 119 with a group from church, and I'm enjoying going over verses out loud while I'm nursing Daniel. Hopefully they'll stick in his mind too while I meditate out loud. Also, he loves while I read the Bible to him while nursing, or even just sitting, rocking in my lap. The sun shines in the window and throws shadows everywhere that fascinate him. Its sweet. :)

He loves bath time, but I'm ready for him to be able to sit up by himself in the sink. He's getting too big for the spongie thing I have in there, but small enough that I don't want him to hit his head on the hard sink. I hope he likes water eventually. We've yet to go to the pool, but hopefully soon. :)

He's still very sweet tempered, slow to fuss, extremely loveable, very happy baby.

Stephen still loves his job. He works 3 days at the office, and 2 days at home.

Here's some pictures from the summer so far.
