Caspian

We have completely fallen in love with this new babe and already made several fun memories between camping, lakes, and playing with our three sons. :) We specifically cherish this picture with the failing health of Mike's dad. So thankful for the good times and an eternal family.

Exciting Summer

I love this picture of Titan and think it pretty much describes how we all feel right now... excited and happy. We had a great week at Powell and are VERY thankful for life jackets. We are excited for a new baby and my dad and Mary's upcoming wedding. Very blessed, wahoo!

Good Times

This weekend has been great with family and friends. It was sweet to get to watch out the window as the boys followed Mike like ducklings on an Easter egg hunt. Then to see as he played with them on the tire swing. Moments like that make me so thankful for my life. Of all the fun and treats this weekend the phrase still wins...

Death is conquered,
man is free;
Christ has won the victory.

Screw You Guys, I'm Goin' Home!

The lines we picked up over the years typically were followed by an expression on my mom's face hoping it wouldn't stick. For some reason however she always laughed when we whipped out the "screw you guys, I'm goin' home!" There are many thoughts I could share on his bitter/sweet anniversary, but mostly I just feel like imagining her saying it and laughing.

Organic Diet

Titan eats rocks, sand, crayons, cardboard, you name it; I worried this day was coming...

Titan was gagging, not choking, gagging and I really didn't get why. Then he spit out some food... nope, poop. I launched a full-fledged investigation into who's it was, but it is a mystery. He had a look on his face like he had been betrayed and although clear, kept wiping his tongue on any toy or cloth he could find. I couldn't stop laughing watching him. I guess he learned his lesson; soft, brown M&Ms are yucky.

The Talk

Maximus was talking to me about the baby in my tummy the other day. He asked, "did you eat it?" I thought about it for a second and then said yes. I'm glad we had the talk. :) I figure he's 4, we have some time.

It's a Boy!

It took a lot of convincing by the ultrasound tech, but hooray for boy #3!
