London, Calligraphy, and Anthony is growing!

Sorry I'm a little behind on my postings! What's new? Well, Mario returned safely home from his trip to London. I'll let him update everyone on his trip, but he had a fantastic group--very hungry to learn spiritually. While he was gone, I stayed with a friend from church whose husband was out of town too...and she has four little ones! It was definitely a learning experience for me!!!

Also, I officially received my check for my first piece of framed calligraphy. It was a great learning experience...lots of trial and error goes into this! It's going to be so much fun to see where this takes me. I'm working on getting a name for my "company" and getting some business cards made up. That's my next big project!

Anthony is getting so much bigger! Even Mario was surprised after being away for 5 days! He is just starting to smile a little (not consistently yet), and he's reaching for objects that dangle above him (like in his bouncy seat or over his play mat)! Did I mention that when I took him in to see Dr. Goebel last week he was 9 lbs!!! He's in size 1 diapers now, too! Here's another picture to hold you all over until we can mail some to you...
