The weekend...

On Saturday Kaija went to a friends wedding shower. No problem, right? Well, this particular shower was in Richmond, a 2 hour drive each way. Again, no problem, right? We decided to leave Natalie home with Josh for the day. No problem, right? To answer all three questions, we didn't have a single problem. If anything it was a great bonding experience for Josh and Natalie. Plus Josh was able to teach Natalie about audibles and other aspects of football.

Sunday was another busy day. In the morning we went to see Sydney Ivey get baptized - considering she is not a big fan of baths she did so well!! Natalie also did great through the 2 hour service - she napped for the first half and then sat on Josh's knee for the second half. Afterwards, we went over to the Ivey's house for lunch and to socialize. A little overwhelming as now the kids outnumber the adults. Later in the afternoon Kaija attended another wedding shower and Natalie and Josh went home and played while watching the Panthers football game.

Natalie is now able to sit up without any neck support. She loves to sit in our laps while we hold her waist as she looks around. She coos and smiles the whole time. We also have started putting Natalie in her infant bathtub without the sling. She absolutely loves it!! The only time she gets fussy is when we don't splash her with water. Josh is already looking into swimming lessons.
