ONE


This love bug, our rainbow baby, turned one this week.  ONE!  
That was a fast year.  He is all over the place-standing, climbing on things.  Not quite a walker yet though.  Soon, soon.  I was hoping he would be walking to start up the new co-op year, but looks like that is not going to happen.  
He is eating regular food, he skipped baby food completely, and still nursing.  Sleeping pretty well, but sometimes still likes to wake up for a snuggle.
He says a couple of words (uh-oh, more, and hi) bur communicates pretty well without words.
He adores his biggest brother and sister (he loves everyone else too, but its extra special with them), pretending to talk on the phone, and The Wiggles.  He's got a bit of mischief in there that is starting to come out more.  I'm sure that will make it extra "fun" when he does start walking!!
Happy Birthday!!  We thank the Lord for the gift of you!!

PROJECT 4TH


This year we had a "work day" on the 4th of July in preparation for the big "13th" birthday party!

A small garden in front of the porch..


It was so disgustingly hot outside...




But we got it done..


And then were super thankful for the pool to cool down in!

How did you spend the 4th of July?
(fireworks were on the 5th this year, so we did that the following day)
