A Day at the Beach

We took Zachary to Galveston beach a few days ago. He LOVED it! This boy has no fear. He went right for the water and kept on walking thru the waves. (Great, give mommy a heart attack!)

And Baby Makes Four?

No, not ours... I am keeping a friend's new baby during the week. Little baby Ethan is about 12 weeks old now and so cute! Zachary loves to say "baba" (baby) and then go over and put his head on baby Ethan's arm, giving him some love. Zachary is fascinated by Ethan and he "helps" me by trying to put Ethan's pacifier back in his mouth when it falls out. This is a great learning experience for both myself and Zachary (and Jamin too, hehe). Jamin asked me the other day if, since taking care of both Zachary and Ethan, I think I could handle another one (ours). That is certainly a question worth a lot of thought. I would love to have another baby, and handling Zachary and Ethan has been pretty easy so far. But how would it be with the serious sleep deficit that comes with having your own newborn? Anyone who knows me, knows I don't do well on lack of sleep. And I really like just having Zachary and being able to focus on him as he grows up. There are a lot of advantages to a singleton. But another child would be wonderful too. Zachary would have a playmate as they got older. He'd have that close sibling bond. I think we'll just wait and see what God has planned for us.
