Week 31


Last week started by Amos finally accomplished crawling (aka The Worm).  All week long he has gotten better at it, and now is using his hands too.  He's getting around pretty good and hasn't gotten into too much trouble yet.

Josie came over for a visit last week, and her and Amos had lots of fun together.  They definitely notice each other and just want to grab hold.  It won't be long until they are running around getting into everything together.






Saturday morning the Vance house got up early to head to KC to help Aunt Audi and soon to be Uncle Jason with their new home.  Amos didn't know what to think about the early rising.  He did greet us with what sounded like a dada.  Jason was pretty happy to hear that little tune.  We made the most of the early morning by brewing an extra large pot of coffee and getting donuts for the road.


While the adults were busy priming and painting the house, Josie and Amos took turns napping and jumping in Josie's jumper.  I don't know what it was about that jumper, but Amos went to town.


This week also marked the passing of Amos' 7 month.  It was fun to look back on all the things he learned this month.  I can't believe how fast change happens with babies.

I think I have a pretty good idea as to what is coming next.  He loves to pull-up and he knows where he wants to go.




We had our first Boo Boo last night.  Amos took a nose plant over the edge of Dino's leg.  We thought that it just shocked him, but later on, he had a bit of a bloody nose!  By that time, he was busy playing with something else and couldn't care less, but the sight of blood made Mommy a little sad.  Good thing he is tough!  I'm sure that is only the first.

In other news, Jason is on the job hunt.  For Jason, teaching these last three years has been a struggle, and we've pretty much decided it is time to look at other possibilities.  Please be praying for us as we seek the Lord in what he has in store for our family next!
