so many suprises

Aaron is growing up and changing so fast. In the time it took me to download these pictures he rolled over from his back to his tummy all by himself. From day one he has been out preforming our expectations. He came into this world a week earlier the we expected. He was already holding his head up in the hospital. Then he pulled a Houdini act on day twelve. I had taken him for a stroll around the neighborhood. We were in Florida so clothing was not imperative to keep warm. He had just messed up the sleeper he wore to bed so I just wrapped him up in a blanket and off we went. After the walk I needed a shower and he was sleeping so I laid him in his crib and jumped in the shower to get cleaned up. A few minutes later i emerged and was relieved to see my little angel sleeping soundly in his crib all wrapped up and cosy. I ran into the bedroom to find some sweatpants and through my hair in a pony. In the time it took me to literally throw on some clothes I heard my little man stirring, not fussing mind you, just talking away. I walked over to the crib and to my amazement my twelve day old son was no longer wrapped in his blanket. In fact the blanket was at the foot of the crib completely out of his reach. If you think that is surprising let me just tell you. His diaper had been soiled and wet and well... removed. His diaper which had been securely fastened by none other then his very competent mother, was now a foot and a half away from him lying in his crib face up so as not to make a mess. It was so unbelievable that he managed to remove both Velcro tabs and hurl his diaper clear across the crib at a time when he could not begin to control any bodily movements. I will never be sure how he managed to pull this stunt off. I know for sure that we were the only ones home and that the family dog, Largo was not able to assist in this charade do to the height of the crib. I can only assume that God above was reminding me to stay on my toes and that this child would always find ways to amaze me.
