A few highlights of the day (oops, I saved this as a draft about a week ago, so it's a little old):
-This morning I took Isaiah's diaper off so he could air out after all night...you know. Anyway, he scooting along behind me as I dropped his wet diaper off in the laundry room, but as I turned to leave, he didn't follow. I turned off the light and beckoned him to follow, but he stayed in the shadows a few minutes before coming behind me. I went and sat on the floor in the next room to finish something I was working on...in comes little Zay...scoot, scoot, and I pick him up and...look down to see streaks of poop on my shirt.
So of course I check the floor...or rather the TRAIL he left on it!
Ah! He had stalled in the laundry room because he was leaving a big pile! (insert grossed out sound effects)
So, I cleaned him off in the tub, put a diaper on him, and then deposited him in his crib while I applied carpet cleaner to the floor. He's not in his crib very often, it's more like a play-pen then a place to sleep these days. So anyway, I'm cleaning the floor when it occurs to me that he may be able to stand up in his crib (he's been trying to for a few weeks).
Sure enough, I run in to find his little hands gripping the railing and his chubby little legs in a semi-confident stance. : )
"Oh baby!"
He grins at me and waves one arm in the air, then reaches for something behind him, looses his balance and goes down with a bang. He's so tough though, he just looks up at me, I smile, and he goes on with no tears!
I sat him close to the railing again, this time with it at it's full protective height (so he can't fall out) and he hoists himself right back up again. Naturally, being the classic first time mommy, I whip out the camera. : )
Once Levi loads them on the computer for me I'll have some up here.
That completes my Isaiah stories for the day. : ) (So if you're reading this because of him, the rest will not interest you!)
Other events:
-I found out that "heather" is in the Bible TWICE (King James Version) in Jeremiah, mentioned as a plant "heath" growing in the desert.
-My dad's pro-life ministry, Life Ministries, has a nearly-daily blog! Check it out at http://www.xanga.com/LIFEministries
It's 9.52pm and I'm so tired....goodnight!

That's amazing that he can stand in his crib now! wow. I saw the video where he can crawl a little. he's a little speedster at scooting.
