More goings-on in the Delaney house...

I know it's time to blog when my anti-blog husband says I need to blog! Here is some of the latest and greatest from our family:

Our big boy Ethan is now rolling over, AND he ate cereal for the first time last night. I am not kidding, but that boy acted like he was born to eat from a spoon. He didn't do the thing that most babies do at first when they push the food back out with their tongues (because that's what they have to do to get milk from a bottle or Mommy). He scarfed it down and I had to make more. So cute!

Emma has also learned to write her name. I need to post a picture of it--it's super cute. Sometimes she makes five or seven horizontal lines on her "E" instead of three, and she usually puts the line on the "a" on the wrong side, but otherwise she's got it. She loves to learn to do new things, and she is so proud of herself for every accomplishment. She's also been working on spelling some new words. So far, she can spell STOP, DOG, and EMMA.

Other than that, life is life as usual. I found a great website for those, like me, who are SO STINKIN' TIRED of all of the depressing news: www.happynews.com. It's just nice to see happy stories in the news instead of stories about the recession, political corruption, and the like. And just as I was starting to get depressed this morning, I saw this verse in my Inbox:

“Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.” Romans 8:35, 37

Amen.
