random stuff

Wow, it seems like it took awhile before Abby started crawling, but now she seems to be in lightning mode. She is cruising along the furniture with no problem, standing (for seconds at a time) without holding onto anything and climbed up 14 steps all on her own today. I can't keep up with all that she is doing. Her personality is really evident now. She really responds to music and likes to dance. Hopefully this means she will have rhythm and be a good dancer, unlike the "butt wobble" her mom is know for.

This is one of Joseph's favorite spots to lay. He is very territorial under the crib, it's his cave. Probably because he knows his fur can't be pulled while he is under there. He runs for the hills when he see her coming his way.


















Check out this hat hair. I have tried clips and bows. They never seem to work. On Easter we had a clip in for about 5 minutes before I found it dangling by one strand. I gave up. I always wished to be one of those moms who had their little girls all neat and perfect looking. Now that reality has set in, I just go with it.


















We have some videos that aren't loading for some reason. Guess I'll post them later.

fun at the playground.

With the weather getting slightly warmer we were able to take a stroll down to the playground.









































































everyone having a blast ;) ;)

Happy Easter

Hope you had as much fun dancing for joy and celebrating Jesus' resurrection as we did!

HAPPY 80th BIRTHDAY GG!

In honor of spring and Grandma Mary's 80th Birthday, here is a bouquet of flowers in photographs. By Rachel Henderson

It's true...

You really can learn a lot about someone by the way they squeeze their toothpaste. :)

The photography major vs. the math/psychology major















This morning I grabbed my toothpaste and quickly realized it wasn't mine. Easy to see how this could happen, they are both the same brand, but my tube has an ergonomic feel I construct every time the tube is nearing empty. Brian's is perfectly squeezed from the bottom up, pushing all of the paste towards the top. Even though we have discussed this issue before, who's way is the "right" way. I found myself having a revelation about our marriage today in the bathroom. We have many differences, such as how we squeeze our toothpaste. Those are the very reasons I married this man and they are why I love him so much. What fun would marriage be if we both squeezed our original, boring, Crest toothpaste the same way?

Praise the LORD!

I just felt the urge to make a public statement that I am in Love with JESUS! I'm so thankful to be living for Him today!

There... that felt good :)

Life Will Never Be the Same

Well after months and months of waiting, it finally happened. Abby is officially on the move. This morning was the first time she officially crawled. I have a feeling life will never quite be the same again. It's amazing how quickly things change. I feel like I'm part of a Nationwide Insurance ad. :) As far as Abby crawling goes though, be thankful that Rachel captured it on video for you. Enjoy!!
