A brief update

Hello family and friends! Sorry it has been so long since my last post; mommy, daddy, and I have been keeping VERY busy! The 'experts' all say it is impossible to spoil an infant, but everyone who knows me thinks otherwise. I am getting more cuddly every day. The past week I make mommy hold me all morning and afternoon. I love my time with mommy, and I've started smiling and 'talking' a lot to let her know how muh I enjoy my time with her. If she lies me down, however, I scream until she holds me again. How could anybody think I am spoiled?! Even though I take up all of her time, mommy says I'm worth it; I think she secretly enjoys the time even more than I do! The other day mommy and I had a monumental moment. Daddy was holding me in the chair while mommy sat on the couch a few feet away. I decided I wanted to be with mommy, and I began looking at her, smiling, and reaching for her. This was the first time I reached or showed any preference for one person, and mommy was quite ecstatic about it.

Since my last post, we have spent most of our time at church. I first went to church on Friday March 23rd for prayers with Fr. Tom, I was baptized on March 24, 2007, and slept through my first church service (Vespers) that same day. Sunday morning (the 25th) I experienced my first Liturgy and had my first communion. Everybody at church brags about my good behavior. I was particularly good throughout the entire baptism, though I was hungry the whole time also.





















































































The website won't allow us to post more pictures right now, but I assure you more will be coming, beginning with my first communion and continuing through my first Pascha on April 8, 2007.
