New tricks everyday!!!

Mr. Man is certainly learning new things every day. In the last two days, he has finally learned to actually jump in his jumperoo after MONTHS of contentedly hanging there, playing with the toy bar. He loves jumping too. Which means he is also finally putting weight on his feet so when you hold him up, he will actually stand. Woo hoo!!!

He is even using his sippee cup, but of course, Mr. Man is impatient so I had to take the spill-proof plug out to get him to actually use it. By the time he finishes gargling and laughing with his water, he looks ready to win a wet-onesie contest, but that's our Devon. His ever-increasing weight has earned him a nickname from P. Daddy: Heavy D.

And Heavy D. is super close to figuring out how to crawl. Every morning I expect it to happen, but God has been kind so far, and I am thankful to enjoy his last moments in baby stage before he takes his first steps into toddlerhood. Don't get me wrong-- I am excited each time he learns something new. But at the same time I get a little sad because he growing so quickly and each step is a reminder that I will never get this time back and I don't want to miss anything. He has time enough to be a big boy so I really don't want to rush him out of this stage.

I am enclosing some pictures of Devon and my mom who was up for the day. He sure is a cutie (but then again, I am biased to think so.) His hair continues to get blonder and blonder, just like his Grandma Moore. Their colors are almost identical!!!

I'll post again soon. Til' then--
