James is now 18 months and so much fun. He has about a hundred words and I feel like everyday he's learning and doing new things. He loves garbage trucks, pretzels, holding mommy and daddy's hands when we drive in the car and he adores babies....but he's still learning how to be gentle when he hugs and kisses them.
James also loves his babada, which is what he calls his Jesus Storybook Bible, and lately he's taken to carrying it around the house and occasionally plopping down to flip through the pages or asking someone to read it to him. I love this and I pray that his love for the bible will continue for the rest of his life.
Another one of James' new loves is Elmo, which is hilarious since he's never actually seen Sesame Street. So now our life is full of the little red monster along with a small Elmo doll that James now sleeps with at night...I'll have to get a picture of this one night, it's really adorable.
Speaking of pictures, we finally bought a new camera (yes our old camera is officially toast) so here are a few shots of the boy to tide you over until we get back in the swing of things.
