First time in flamingo class

Fed this sweet boy applesauce. Then let him get on the floor and sit up and play for a little bit. He was a little talkative and smiled a lot. Then he slept through all that five minutes of the last service/ baptism bash. 

Got to have a very late lunch with some in-laws.

Sneaky tickler. 

And I gave him a fry. 

Sweet hailey. 

Gettin' all dreamy on grandma

Quin loves his cousins. 

Last day of school for jubi 2015

Jenny's Surprise Summer

Ya know... Just a 33 year old book. 

The kids love that it has a horseshoe crab in it--- g's latest obsession. 

7 months! 5/14/15

This boy is mostly all smiles. He has been learning to cry it out in his bed for about a week. Sure does break my heart. But he gets to the point where there's nothing I can do for him.

At seven nights this boy is a super champ sitting. And he loves to play with the soccer ball. He's also eating all kinds of solids. Fruits, veggies, and cereal. He's even had a couple chances to get a pizza crust. And we let him have his first puffs a couple of days ago. Gabriel and Jubilee like the puffs more than he does at this point.

AZ is absolutely crazy about his daddy and brother and sister. His face lights up anytime he sees them. He is also pretty content when new people hold him. Not near as cautious as his brother and sister were.

Where the path in mouth

With a teething tablet. Goodness he looks like my mom here.

Breakthrough {the gums}

Finally felt a tooth break through the sweet little gums. Oh how I love this boy!

I wanted to get a picture of him chewing on his fingers but every time I try he grabs for the phone. The tooth that's finally coming in is on the bottom

Waterfall word from 2013

In 2013-- when I lost the baby-- Karla gave me a word about waterfalls... Oh how you hold on to those words... When all you can so is trust and hope... I purposefully got this cal wade for 2014.  

Cleaning off my calendar and decided I better take a pic lest I forget that ALL of His promises are true! 

I wanted an October baby for the longest time.

And Gabriel prayed for a baby brother for the longest time.. 

Psalm 145:13b

The Lord is trustworthy and all he promises and faithful in all he does. 

Psalm 107:2 a

Let the redeemed of the Lord tell their story. 

THANK YOU JESUS!! That I am part of your story and that you are my story.  you are my saving grace. And thank you that you give life abundantly!

These two.

Royal king and his soldier. 

She made sure to inform me that sometimes she wears a tutu. 

I'm trying a new method for getting them to get along today. They start off with 30 minutes of screen time. And can gain or lose minutes for every act of kindness or obedience or whiny Ness, arguing, fussing, disobeying, etc.

It's going pretty well so far .... One hour into the day. 😉
