Homemade Peaches

Messy but I think they got the mark of approval

 

Hopefully as more made it in her tummy then on her shirt.

Ripped

I will start with appoligies, first I am sorry I have not written, the week has flown by as I have begun to prepare to go back to school. 

Second I am sorry we ripped your bible this week.  When you were baptized Community Ref. gave you a children's bible with pretty pictures and key stories.  In an effort to teach you good habits we have done devotions every morning since then, so we have read it and the bible story book from your Uncle Aaron and Aunt Chelsea both cover to cover twice already.  I should have seen it coming, you have been grasping for toys and have great grip and this week you got a hold of one of the pages of your Bible. We ripped a page.  At first I was sad and felt guilty, this book we were given to commemorate such a special day in your life and I let you ruin it. I felt like I should have tucked it on a shelf and kept it safe.  But then I remembered the words of Pat Kelly (an old friend of your grandpa Dann).  Pat said you could judge a man by his Bible.  Never trust a man whose Bible was too nice on the outside because he has not read it, but if a man's Bible is worn the pages are folded, written on, torn and highlight there is a man who desires to know the Lord.  I would rather have you know your heavenly father then have a pretty momento from baptism, I suppose church gave it to us so we would use it, so I am sorry it's ripped but not sorry you are hearing the stories.

No naps

I was going to write a blog post but you have decided no naps.  No naps at all, I cannot complain too much you are sleeping great at night, but right now every time I sit down to try to type or go try to clean something because I put you down for a nap, I almost instantly hear you fuss, so no time to type.  We will try again soon.

Videos (swimming and playing)

So this past weekend we took you on your first vacation, it was a short trip to Traverse City but you did GREAT.  You slept the way there and the way home and all in all I think you had a lot of fun, You also went swimming in a big pool for the first time.

You were excited to get home and play with your wocket.

 

I would normally pull still photos from my video footage but that program is not working right now as soon as I get it working I'll add the still frames to Shutterfly.

The photos are from your Cousin Ross' going away party.  I am so proud of Ross for going and having the courage to follow his dreams.  But I hope he comes back to visit a lot.

4 Month Photos

 

You are just too cute!  I know really I would normally wait till the 5th of the month but you have a doctors visit and shots, so I thought we should take pictures while you were happy. 

Sorry not a lot of posting this week I had to turn my laptop back into school for summer work so I have been making due with out it.  I will try to make up for it and post again soon, but after working at school all day today (you played at Oma's house)  I am spent, and soo are you, I think right now we both need a good long nap.
