Baby Weekend

I spent most of my weekend this saturday and sunday playing with babies, many many of them, it was so much fun, even though I was so exhausted when I came home after church today. I spent about 6 hours with Caleb and John, since Grace was out of town. I discovered recently that 2 things make Caleb laugh really loud: when I ask him to push me off his slide and when I jump to turn around unexpectedly, it's pretty hilarious. I tried the jumping thing on 2 more babies today, and they seem to like it too, it's almost kind of like peak-a-boo, but when you jump around doing that they find it more amusing.

I was so happy during ITM(infant toddler ministry) first service, because all the babies I have ever gotten to know at Evergreen was there all at once, Caleb, Momoe, Asher, Katelyn, Megumi, etc. It was so fun watching the kids play with each other or by themselves, fighting over toys and snacks, running over each other. It's at times chaotic, especially when one child cries for mom and dad for a long time, somehow a few others will join in and cry for mom and dad too, it's infectious. Caleb was pretty good most of the day, only when John left after he came in for a bit was he a little fussy, but he was ok after awhile. I had so much fun playing with him this weekend, he's really fun to watch and interact with, can't wait till when we can have conversations, you know, real ones! :)
