Cruising

Not too much new. Just thought you would like to see James on the move. Someday soon I'm sure that he won't be holding on anymore. Also, here are some of his latest babbles.

What's on the floor?

Last night we gave James a bath. He was a little wound up. Screaming, squealing, splashing, and just having a good old time. Eventually, all things must come to an end. We ended the bath to get ready for bed. Once he was dry I went to throw out diapers and get a drink while Jonathan was going to get him a new diaper and put him in his jammies.

James took off through the house naked with Jonathan following. James was really enjoy this freedom and crawling around as fast as he could. Jonathan paused to take some pictures of him. Then took a step and stepped into something wet, and asked, "What's on the floor? Did you spill some water?" Pretty sure that I hadn't spilt I turn and look and say, "No, I don't think so, and that's not water." James had urinated on the floor and then crawled through it and was putting his fingers in his mouth. I quick grabbed James to keep his hands out his mouth while Jonathan rinsed his foot and got a rag to wipe James off. The good thing is that this all happened on the kitchen floor, so the clean up was fast and easy.

Later, as I was looking at the pictures that Jonathan had taken it looked as though while he was snapping the camera is when James was leaving his mark on the floor. We'll see how soon it is before he gets to go through the house naked again!

La Cucaracha

After all of the fun and excitement of Christmas we are begining to get back to our normal routines, and are enjoying being back home. It was great to see family and friends. It was fun for us to watch everyone with James and to notice how much he grew and changed that week. He is becoming more and more steady as he stands with no hands.




Since we have been home he has had fun exploring and playing with all his toys. He discovered music and continues to "dance" constantly. He loves to dance to all the songs. Every now and then he will sway his head or hips to the music. He's starting to get brave enough to let go and dance, but I haven't caught that on camera yet.



(Please excuse our wild and crazy hair day. Although I think it adds to dance.)

We really enjoy watching him. It brings smiles to our faces each time!
