A Brave New World

As promised, a bit about our adventures two Sundays ago in Infant II class at church. For those people who may not know, our church has an Infant I class and an Infant II class, followed by a great many other classes at varying age and developmental levels. Anyway, as one might expect, Infant I is the babiest of the babies, where each child has his own person pretty much holding him for two hours. Infant II is more the crawlers, pull uppers. Also, Anna and I stay with the Infant II class every Sunday.

There was some trepidation about moving Buxton up to our class, despite him being ready for it in pretty much every way. Just hard to admit the little fella's growing up. Anyway, two Sundays ago we bit the bullet and made the switch.

Buxton in our class for the first time



In my own little corner in my own little room...



Well the day just went swimingly, that is until we decided to try and get a picture of Buxton crawling through one of the two tunnels that he absolutely loved during class, but maybe not so much in front of the cameras.



La, la, la, la, la, la, la



Whittledee dee, dee dee, dee dee



Go ahead and help him a little bit mommy...



Not that much!!! Oh, son. We're sorry. No more crawling through tunnels...at least until next week.

Big Boy at the Park

Anna, Buxton and I went out to the park, where we found out just how big our little boy is now. Last time we came all he could handle were the swings, but this time he was ready to try the seesaw. A quick lesson from daddy and mommy:





As you can see, he was enthused. May take a little more time to get that one down.





So on to the main attraction, the swing set. Buxton loves the swings, being pushed, laughing at us laughing at him, etc.













Now here is a little boy who loves his mommy. And for good reason. She loves him quite a bit, too.



Check back soon for pictures from Buxton's first Sunday in Infant II class at church, including the infamous "face plant" photo.
