Learning as we go...

We're constantly learning as we go... Micah and I decided to make a small tweak in something we were doing with Mack... we'd been taking Mack to his room to change his diaper and to put him to sleep.  But sometimes he isn't too fond of either of those things; so we have started to spend a little more time with him IN his room playing as well as reading. The big idea is to get him used to HIS room and not see it as a place that he dreads.  Today we were working on crawling and getting used to being on his tummy. So far it's been working great!






Reading to Baby is one of the most soothing interactions you’ll have. Turns out it’s a bonding experience with benefits, improving vocabulary, reading readiness, focus, and attention. As with adults, reading contributes to a child’s general knowledge of the world. You can start as early as birth on this together-time activity that’s truly powerful for both of you.


Micah and I did just that, we began reading to Mack as soon as he was born and he loves it.  He gets so excited, especially when we read his Bible to him. It's never too early to start pouring the Word of God into your child!
