Sing joyfully to the LORD, you righteous;
it is fitting for the upright to praise him.
Psalm 33:1 (NIV)

This past week has been pretty good for me. Since the weather has been warmer Dad and I have been venturing outside a lot during the day. My folks got me a pair of shades, which I found really irritating until I got in the sunshine. Pop spent the night with us last Friday. Meme had some family thing she was going to in Ashville. So, Pop decided to spent some time with us. On Friday he, Dad, and myself went out for lunch. We went during an off time and there was virtually no one in the joint. I ate some Grouper and I've decided I prefer Catfish. On Saturday we hung around the house in the morning til Meme got there. Once she arrived we went to a local park for a picnic. So, it's been a fun and uneventful week. I'm getting out more and more, but my folks are easing me into things. I don't have much experience with crowds and they tend to get on my nerves. I hear this is also true for many adults, LOL. On thing of note is I'm cutting four new teeth. So far I've been handling things without too much fuss. I think that catches you up with the latest. Before I go I wanted to give you guys an idea of just how many meds I was on. Below are two charts detailing the what and when of the daily medicines I was taking. Thankfully, I'm not taking any meds and am doing just fine. God is good! I've also included a recent video clip. You'll have to hold your head funny to view half of it. It was shot while Daddy and me were goofing around.
JSR, out.

The LORD is my light and my salvation, whom shall I fear? The LORD is the stronghold of my life, of whom shall I be afraid?
Psalm 27:1 (NIV)

The past few days have been really low key. I've been doing normal baby stuff like sleeping, playing, eating, and what naturally follows eating, LOL. I decided that since I didn't have much to say that this post would contain videos taken since my last post. Some are short (only a few seconds) and some are longer, but I hope you enjoy them just the same.
Blesings, JSR out.

This first group was taken by my friend, Bessie. My Dad had to be away for the entire day and she was gracious enough to watch me.







This group of clips are recent vids of Mom and me playing.

What Comes Around Goes Around


You will keep in perfect peace all who trust in you, all whose
thoughts are fixed on you! Trust in the LORD always,
for the LORD GOD is the eternal Rock.
Isaiah 26:3-4 (New Living Translation)

Sorry I'm a little late on the weekly update. I was a sick little puppy late Sunday and Monday and just didn't feel like posting. Sunday night I started runnig a fever and that continued until I went to bed Monday night. But this morning I woke up fever free and feeling a lot more like me, PRAISE! Still not 100%, but feeling much better.

The whole thing started late last week when Mommy got sick. I caught what she had and now I've passed it on to my Dad, LOL. He started feeling all "blah" last night and woke up this morning with a sore throat and coughing. (I can hear him hacking up a lung in the other room.) This is normal for any family and some may thnk "big deal." Well, as a preemie there is always the possibility of a small cold really hanging in there and becoming someting serious. So far I'm getting over it with the normal meds (Motrin/Tylenol) and stuff. So, my ability to deal with a cold, like any other baby, is good news, PRAISE! What comes around goes around... but you can't keep a good little man down.

The weekend wasn't all bad though. On Sunday, before I started running hot, I got to meet some cousins (R-L: Brian, Logan, Morgan, and Leigh Ann) from North AL. They were passing through and we met them for dinner at a Cracker Barrell. (BTW the food was really good, LOL.) One great thing about me making progress is I get to meet family and friends who have been praying for me. Well, that's about it for now. I hope everyone has a great week. Oh, one thing I almost forogt. I have started bathing in the BIG tub and below is a G rated video of my first big boy bath.
Blessings, JSR out.
