Summer Fun

Does Hagirsa love the water you ask?  Oh my goodness.  I've never seen a kid gravitate to water like this kid does.  He knew what the word, "bath" meant right away.  He is hysterical to watch in a lake or pool.  He goes in like he owns the place and doesn't care about going under or how much he gets wet.  When he does go under, he just comes up smiling and laughing with his eyes and mouth wide open!  He can count to three now due to us dunking him on "three."  He'll say, "two" to get you to do it again. 

He's growing so fast.  His budda belly seems smaller now.  Maybe we're just getting used to it.  He feels taller though and he's cutting more teeth!  Yes, this will be nine of them since we've been home.  I guess he'll get them all out of the way.  We've attributed his constant runny nose to this. 

His new thing when he gets mad is to say all the naughty words in a row while pointing his finger at you....."no, mine, stop."  I literally just laugh when he does it.  I wouldn't let him get in the dishwasher yesterday so all the words went flying along with the pointed finger at me.   He means business!  :) 

Having a great time with him this summer and introducing him to all sorts of new things.  I can't wait for what each new day brings for him and us as a family.  His baptism will be July 24th and we are so exited.  We have water from Lake Awassa near where he was born to baptize him in.  It will be an emotional day.  God is good!
