Wednesday we went to the park for M.OM.'s group, which is a group I got involved in through church. I love it because it gives me a chance to meet other mothers, get out of the house, and Jordan loves to be outside & playing in the sand. The first time we went, yes, he picked up the sand and put it in his mouth (several times). Good grief. This time he was much more coordinated at sitting up and I turned a bucket upside down so he could bang on it, thus eliminating the need for eating sand (whew!). Jordan also loved being in the bucket swing - I can already tell this kid will be saying "higher Mommy, higher!".
Thursday Jordan spent the morning at my grandma's house while I went to 'work'. He had a lot of fun crawling around and exploring a new place. I never fail to be thankful that Jordan adapts easily to new situations and 'new' people.
On Friday, I took Jordan to meet Delane & Ben's new baby boy, Liam! Liam is 7 months and 6 days younger than Jordan. Delane & I are hoping that our boys will be buddies :) I had forgotten (already!) what it was like to hold a newborn. Liam was so precious & so tiny! He was born at 9 lbs 2 ozs so he was on the 'big' side, but oh, he felt so light compared to Jordan (who is only 5 or 6 lbs heavier!). Jordan tried so hard to crawl over me to play with Liam - grunts and all. Pretty comical!
Here's Jordan waving 'bye-bye' to everyone!
I remember when Justin ate about 6 pounds of sand on the Coronado Beach one time when I was trying to take a picture of him!!! I'm convinced that it's nature's way of helping Southern California Babies prepare their stomachs for the excellent Mexican Food they will enjoy later in life.
