Boy's will be boy's!

"Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows." -James 1:17

It has been over a month since my last blog. I would love to post a new blog everyday, and I would if I could!
However, I hardly have the time because I have a sweet, 10 month old, typical boy, who at 9 months learned to walk. Since then, my days have been consumed with keeping him out of trouble and harms way!
Not to mention, he is now no longer interested in walking, but running to his momentary place of interest...
He is no longer satisfied with sitting in front of Mommy and playing "pat-a-cake", moving a toy truck back and forth, or looking at the pictures in his animals book.

Instead, he likes to tear things up....and make huge messes....and plunder through the fridge...and put everything in his mouth while looking directly at us and running away as we say no, no and chase behind him.
To say i'm exhausted after chasing behind him on a daily basis is putting it mildly, but I wouldn't change it for the world! 

Besides, how could anyone get mad at a face like this?!

Ahhh..Boy's will be boy's right?
Of course. Even though my baby boy gets into way more now that he is fast approaching the toddler stage, he is still my sweet, joyful, silly, baby Jude.



He loves for Ellie Kate and me to chase behind him while his little blue blanket is clenched tightly in his fists. Then, he will stop, turn around and play a game of "peek-a-boo" with it before we catch him. This game goes on until we are all worn out!
He also loves to be Mommy's little helper, to be held by me, and to cuddle up on my chest.



One of my favorite things about being this sweet, joyful, rambunctious, little boy's Mommy is: When I am holding him while multi-tasking around the house or putting him to sleep,  I will sometimes look down and find him staring at me with the sweetest smile, and a look that says he loves and adores his Mommy.
I'm so thankful God chose me to be Jude's AND Ellie Kate's Mommy. They truly are a perfect gift!
