"Praise Jesus"

Judah's name means praise and if you saw him in church, you'd see how true he is to his name! Many times from the stage I'll see him waving his arms in the air, clapping his hands, or "singing" as we do praise and worship. When he and I are home I've tried to teach him to praise Jesus when we listen to Christian songs. So awhile ago, I asked Judah if he could praise Jesus and this is what he did all on his own...

Birthday Boy

My little boy is now 1 year old! His birthday was last Tuesday and we had his actual birthday party on Saturday. Many friends and family came to celebrate and we had a really nice time! Joshah and I bought him a little slice of cake to eat on Tuesday night and he LOVED it!! I gave him a lick of the frosting while Joshah was getting the video camera ready and Judah did not want to wait for dad to get finished. It was fun to see him go to town on his cake, both Tuesday and Saturday! :) Judah-boy is such a blessing to me! He continually makes us laugh and has become quite the monkey! :) Joshah taught him what a monkey says, so when you ask he's quick to give you the answer. I'm looking forward to the months ahead. I'm sure he's going to make a great big brother! :)

Pictures

Here's a few more pictures of Judah! He's getting so close to walking, we can hardly believe it! He's taken a few steps on his own and pops up all over the place. but our guess is that he'll be walking by his first birthday. It's only a (short) matter of time before I'll be chasing him around the house. :) He's such a character and has been a huge joy to have. We're looking forward to seeing him grow and develop even more.

Easter Surprise

For Easter I decided to surprise Joshah by getting some pictures taken of Judah. We both love how they turned out! You can view them by going to www.sugarpeapouches.com/gallery/ and typing in judah for the password. I'm posting a few here so you can see why we were so happy with them! :)

Laughing

I got Judah laughing really hard a few days ago and thought I'd share! Funny how such simple little sounds can make a baby laugh so hard.

Smiles

Judah is 9 months now and can be such a silly-billy. It seems like whenever I have a camera in hand and ask him to smile, he grins and squints his eyes together. I crack up every time he does it. He's such a good boy and is excited to have a baby sister! Yep, Joshah and I found out we're going to have a girl come July so we're all really excited!

Little Bear

It's probably mean that I did this, but as I was driving home from the store a few days ago, I heard Judah snoring behind me. He's been sick with a cold here and there, so he was plugged up, but I just thought it was so cute. Hopefully you do too! :)
