Times are a Changin

Well hello all..sorry it has been a while since I have updated...and let me tell you it seems that there is a lot to update! Things are changing here in the Voda house....we have a fast and curious crawler who needless to say is into EVERYTHING!!! It is so much fun to watch him explore and discover new things. He has figured out how to get to his bottom and sit up (this is a great task for him; however, it is not so great when he figures out how to sit on his bottom when he is SLEEPING!!! Poor baby is so tired he can't figure out how to lay back down) He is pulling himself to standing in his crib, he claps when we say "everybody clap your hands" he clicks his tongue and makes a popping sound with his lips! I am telling you he learned all of this in 5 short days. In the midst of all the learning going on in this house, there was also a flood of frustration fuming from our little Man! He was simply overwhelmed with all the new things he was figuring out and we had several melt downs and a lot of sobbing and screaming!!! Just when I thought I was going to pull all of my hair out, it seems our sweet boy has returned from the dark unknown and he is enjoying this strange world once again. However, I am vigorously reading the book "The Strong Willed Child" by Dr. James Dobson....have you seen the new cover? It has Maddox's face on it....okay so not really, but this book was definitely written with our strong willed Madd-man in mind.

Well, more updates...this past weekend we traveled to Oklahoma City to visit the family and celebrate with Aunt Kim as she graduated!! Congrats Kim, we are so proud of you and your hard work!!! It was a great time with the family, although Maddox was a little out of his element and was still a bit fussy; overall it was a great trip and we definitely enjoyed the time with family!!!
