As a baby, there is a lot to learn. For example, a baby often learns how to crawl! In order to learn this valuable skill, a baby must spend time laying on his stomach on the floor. However, at least lately, laying on his belly on the floor means it's nap-time. Or perhaps even bed-time (at 7:30). Regardless, not much progress is made in learning to crawl when you fall asleep in the process!
Another good skill for a baby is eating. That skill is... well... going. Fruits are good, Vegetables are Evil (particularly the green ones; who came up with "jolly" green giant, any-hoo?). And dinnertime is, perhaps, a bit too close to bedtime.
And then there is sitting. This is definitely a skill at which Mark has reached some level of mastery recently. Two days in a row, he has sat for an hour or more in a high chair at a restaurant. He's doing really well in grocery and shopping carts. He can even pull himself up with a little assistance (but still has not mastered moving into a sitting position on his own). We got him his own chair for the back porch. Of course... it may still be a while before his feet touch the ground!
Love: Learning!
Hope: I have learned something over the last several months of studying...
Do: Go back to studying!
