Dedication Weekend

I am a little behind in posting this, but a week and a half ago, Alain and I had the opportunity to dedicate Coby in front of our church. This is a special, formal display of our commitment to put Coby before the Lord always. Of course, the service is just a moment in comparison to the actual commitment made to pray for, model before, and truly to raise our son in a home that is centered and led by Jesus. What a true honor the Lord has provided for us to be able to parent this beautiful boy and to teach him and lead him. We are beyond blessed! This weekend truly reminded us of the wonderful friends we have to share in this responsibility~ what a great time of prayer from our leaders and friends at the church!



Along with the dedication came a visit for Lola, Abuelo, and Auntie Angelica. Coby had a lot of fun playing with everyone and went to sleep for a whole day when everyone left. It is fun to see how interactive Coby has become; however, he will no longer sleep anywhere- he is so afraid to miss anything and will fight sleep anytime people are around. It is really funny to watch him sleep with what I call "one eye open." He will scan the room from a half open eye and decide whether or not to wake completely or not. Needless to say, as soon as we return from vacation in a couple of weeks, Coby will be learning to sleep in his crib for naps to ensure he gets good rest during the day!
