Faith like a child....

Around 9pm on Tuesday night, we noticed that we all felt hot and that the air conditioner wasn't kicking on! Since it is still in the upper 90s here, we had no desire to try to tough it out, so we decided to pack up and go Grandma and Grandpa Fox's for the night to sleep. In the midst of the hustle and bustle of packing everything up and me (Melissa) starting to really fret about the possibility of an expensive problem being underway, we noticed Aaron was just grinning and smiling away. I was struck immediately at the innocence of children and how Jesus tells us in Matthew to have faith like a child. Aaron was completely oblivious to the so-called "stress" around him - such a good testimony to his worry-wart mother! So of course, we had to snap a picture to remind us of this good lesson.

and p.s. The ac is now fine - a pretty cheap fix as it was just a broken thermostat! =)

I love my swing!

This little boy (with the bad bed head) loves his swing on the fastest and hardest setting possible. In fact, we are considering buying one that goes all the way around and upside-down. So long as he's buckled in tight, right? =)

Aaron and Cousin Brynn

This past weekend, Aaron got to meet his one and only cousin, Brynn Fox! Brynn is only one week younger than Aaron so we think they will be good friends. Good thing she is moving to live near us in Mesa in a few weeks!

Smiling

At 4 weeks, Aaron began regularly smiling at us. He seems to do this the most right after he eats and has a nice full tummy!

Here we go!

Well, I'm giving in..... I'm succumbing to the peer pressure and making a blog for my son, Aaron. Anyway, hopefully this can help everyone stay updated on how he is doing with pictures and stories, especially for those out of town friends and family that don't get to see him often enough. Anyway, to sum up the past 7 weeks of his life, Aaron was born July 29, 2007 and weighed in at 7 pounds, 4 ounces and was 20 and 3/4 inches long. I'm mom (Melissa) and my husband is a very proud father named Lee. Anyway, stayed tuned - We will try our best to keep this website updated and lots of fun!
