Some of my favorite moments over the last several weeks.

Sitting in Grandma Sue-sue's pot.

Playing at Levi's siblings birthday party on the big indoor soccer field!
(Elijah was 6 and Stella 4)

She grabbed this off the shelf at the aquarium. We got her one, but the next size down. We are suckers for really good stuffed animals. We got her a great buffalo out west this summer.

And this is our family Friday a few weeks ago. Apparently shopping wears her out. She slept on both of our shoulders throughout TJ Maxx when Mike asked if she wanted a cheeseburger and french fries, she woke up and said "Yeah, uh huh, yeah".

Tera tagged me...I was supposed to go to my 6th folder and get my 6th picture, but I just picked the 6th picture on my desktop. This is Miss D at the 930 this month. I would like this piece of art, from Lost Love in D's room.

Update:
  • I have a tentative c-section date of April 21st!
  • That is 10 weeks away!
  • Mike,Neil, and the Sojourn worship team have almost finished their next CD!
  • Mike is the co-founder of the Open Sourcebook, an free online liturgical resource for churches. It just launched this month.
  • Sojourn has some GREAT new web blogs and resources. Check out TravelBlog. (SO THANKFUL FOR BOBBY GILLES WHO MAINTAINS THIS)
  • Dorothy had her half birthday this week, that means she is 1 1/2!
  • D talks in sentences as of this week. Some of them make NO sense and the other half are clear as day "I don't want noodles mama." "Read stories mama?" "Thank Jesus for cheeseburgers" Mike and I just look at each other shocked. I prompted her to thank to say thank you and she said "Thank you Mike" then started laughing, because she used his first name. She continues to call Mike's parents "Nana and Papa" And has labeled my mother "Sue-sue" and my dad..."Gamp-pa Sue-sue". I am not sure how he feels about that.
  • We are sill dealing with so much crappy health...We all had colds and for Mike and Dorothy it developed into bronchitis...Mike's back, my arthritis. We just continually have to do life our own way. I have had to step back from a lot of expectations that others have on me and that I have put on myself. It is hard, but it is so nice to remind myself I am putting God first and then my family. And that is all that matters right now.
