Splish Splash I was taking a bath!

Emmanuel is 10 weeks old this week!  I can't believe how quickly the days have turned into weeks.  He has outgrown most of his newborn outfits..and now he's wearing 0-3 months clothes.  It's hard to believe that our little baby is now a BIG BOY!  

He's doing a lot more smiling and socializing this week!  Below is a picture of Emmanuel at our Kick-off Cookout for the Youth Group (some of our high school girls are in this pic with Lil
 E).  He also went to our HS Girls Bible Study and a moms group and over to a friend's house.  Our lives are even more busy with this little one.  

Emmanuel LOVES bath time...from the moment he first took at real bath at 9 days old (after his umbilical cord fell off), he has loved the bath.  He used to just sit back and chill while we washed him, but now he is becoming more active...and he loves to splash in the water!  Now, the only problem is that I have bamboo floors, which are not supposed to get wet--so we're going to have to figure out a healthy compromise with all this splashing!  I've got a throw rug to put on the floor, and I guess that will have to suffice.  We love that he gets so excited during bath time.  Enjoy the video! 

He's also beginning to grab hold of things..including my hair!  I thought to myself...why do I use all of these colorful mobiles and attach rings to his stroller that he can bat away--when he is just as happy hitting and pulling my hair.    

Thanks for all of your prayers...he gets baptized next week...I'll be sure to post some pictures!
