Don't throw the baby out w/the bath water!

I can't put very much water in her bathtub right now because she has been flipping onto her belly and wanting to stay there and play. She likes to pick the washcloth up and suck on it. Ewww!

Here she is getting ready to "dive" in....











......in.......

















....success!

Happy 5 month Birthday Ilwy and almost 2 years Jutin

Thats how Justin says his and her name. Actually, her 5 month mark was yesterday. Well, she is officially rolling all which ways now. I knew she was because she wouldn't be where I put her, but I hadn't seen her do more than a single roll. This past week has been full of back to fronts and front to backs and wiggles and squirming to get ahold of something she sees or just "taste" whatever is close. Neither of the boys were army crawlers, but I wonder if she will be. Her back end just wants to get up and go, but the front hasn't figured it out yet. During the last bath she had, she rolled onto her belly the entire time, each time taking in water through the mouth and nose. The boys both did that 1 time and never again after that. She must have a harder time learning some lessons.

Justin will be 2 on the 6th, and he is all boy. He always has bumps and bruises and scrapes and ouwies. He can count to 10, he is trying to learn colors (He seems to have "ilber" down really good. That would be because of the silver balls on the tree.). He is doing ok with shapes, altho octagon is his favorite to say. He sings along to a lot of the songs we sing regularly, and when Austin says prayer at breakfast and lunch, he chimes in. He seems to be interested in taking off his diaper to sit on the big potty, but not interested in making anything happen.
