Yes, he is licking the window.
My little guy is now 9 months old! I can't believe how the time has flown and how few pictures of him I have taken. It is really sad. But I tried to make up for it today and took about 12 in one little sitting. Anywho, he is precious and I love him to bits. He is having a hard time going to sleep these days but we are working our way through it. He is much more high maintenance they my other babes.
So, he crawls like a champ and has almost gone the stairs twice. And he loves to pull himself up on chairs and things. He especially loves to crawl under the table and pull himself up underneath it!
It is a challenge to be a mom of four and homeschool. I am really being stretched and learning a lot about myself as a person and a parent. Parenting is really intentional. I can't do this half-assed and have it come out all right. I recently realized that I have spent my whole life being 'pushed in' and told to sink or swim. I am really tired of that. I really want to be shown and taught how to parent and raise these little women and little men into big ones. Things are changing in me and how I mother my kidlets. I am grateful for that. I am learning and watching some really excellent women. I feel less frantic I think right now. I am hopeful that my children will grow up into the people I always hoped they would become. My kids are great right now but I want them to be great later too. I know they will have flaws...I just hope they are capable of seeing them and dealing with them and desiring to be great, humble, caring, compassionate, loving, kind, generous, selfless people.
Is that too much to ask?
