As I have mentioned before.. I don't use my camera too often. I need to get back in the habit. Today I was reading a bunch of blogs and thought it was probably way past due for an Ira update. SO I heard him wake up from his nap and went in and took a picture of him.
Then I remembered I had taken a few other pictures of him this month. So I am posting those too. We got him a pair of cowboy boots the other day. they are a little big on him still and he walks funny in them, but they are sure cute.
We always get to take Ira to youth group on Wednesday nights. last week they went bowling and even Ira got to bowl. They even had shoes in his size! He did really well, even though he was
throwing a 6 pound ball. He only tried running up the lane once, he fell hard, and didn't do it again.
This is the cutest thing Ira does lately. when he is sad or upset about something he puts his little hand over his eyes and sticks out that bottom lip. When he starts to calm down he rubs his face all over with his hand, i assume trying to wipe all his tears away. it is adorable.
In non photo news.. He has started making out more words and repeating a lot. He likes building things and knocking them down, putting things together and taking them a part, plugging things in and unplugging them..turning the TV on and off...and other things like that.
We spend quite a bit of time outside in the garden. Ira is a great helper although he does not know the difference between a weed and a plant, so we have lost a few seedlings. He loves playing in the dirt. We bought tools for him his size, but he is determined to use the oversized rake and any other tools he can get his hands on that mom and dad use. he is really good at throwing rocks and splashing in puddles too.
He has become a pretty good listener..his tantrums are at a minimum right now..and he definitely knows when he gets himself into trouble.. he starts running the other direction. he gets over things fairly quickly and back to giggling and smiling almost as soon as a tear falls. He is sleeping through the night, but very much a morning person like his dad. he is becoming very curious about how things work. and stays busy with one object/toy for ever.
He REALLY loves music and dancing and singing. He is a pretty good dancer and I dare say has a bit of rhythm. It is pretty funny to see him dance, he really gets into it. He sings Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, although you would have to know that is what he is singing... lol
he loves giving kisses now and i am please to say he closes his lips now so they are not so wet.
cant wait for him to give ya one of those.

How can a person have a heartache and a thrill all at the same time. Because that is what I have when you tell us about Ira. I love getting to hear about his little personaltiy but on the other hand my heart aches becaused I can't be there. But they say pain makes the joy even more intense. So that is the way I will look at it. All the more joy.
