Things Nathan Likes

I've been having a hard time getting around to writing on this blog. I still look forward to doing it, but I feel some sense of wanting to say something meaningful when sometimes there is not much meaningful thoughts left in my head. I have figured this much out. It will be so so much harder when Nathan is a little toddler and another baby comes along. Whew! (We're not expecting or anything though, by the way.)




Nathan loves this mirror. But mostly he likes the lion face. Sometimes he will actually look at his reflection, but does not find that as amusing.









Another thing he seems to like is this dinosaur book. The first page crinkles and all the pages have cloth textures to touch. He doesn't reach for the pictures yet. Sunday at small group he sat on my lap during prayer, and cooed at the dinosaurs during the whole time. It was quite cute.







At the end of August, when he was two months old, I had an offer from Shutterfly to make a free book. I just had to pay for shipping. I had neglected to read my emails for awhile, and had ignored this one until the day before the offer expired! So very quickly, I put together a book about Nathan including all my pregnant belly pictures. It turned out quite well, aside from the grammar errors that were a result of hasty publishing. He won't care. And by the time he will care, we can use it as a hands on editing and revising lesson! (Oh, and notice the spit up that is about to shoot out his mouth. Jon caught this great shot)





Here is another great spit up shot, along with some hair grabbing. The spit up got all over by the time I disentangled myself.











He is growing fast - that's for sure! He can't sit up by himself yet, but sits well with some support. The thing he still hates is tummy time. Oh well.
