now I'm really a looker!

Overall I'm pretty excited about them... I just worried the night I found out I needed them that my friends wouldn't recognize me. What do you think? Please pray with us that the transition goes well... they're only half strength, can't get my full prescription for another 6 mos. to let my eyes adjust.

Trips to town are long...
We try to enjoy the scenery

Field trips are fun...

Wherever we go or whatever we're doing... I'm drawing and writing notes... My stick figures have t-shirts nowadays.

Sorry Boone folks... it seems we skipped winter here this year!

Henry held a lamb... I held a lamb...

Lincoln's proud of his teeth, I guess... this is his prefered choice of smiles lately ... we can't get enough of it!

pretty typical moment in our home...

sandbox hasn't had a break this winter...

Ahhhhh, friends... God truly heard my mommy's requests!

Mommy turned old... seems to happen about once a year

It was with us for about a week before Mommy tired of fishing styrofoam from Linko's mouth- then we watched some youtube videos on demolition and went at it. It was a good house.

Ode to Mrs. Inglesby

Though we were looking shaggy there for just a little while...
Thanks to Mrs. Inglesby we've all reclaimed our style:

Soccer Milestone

Remember a few months back when Mommy tried to coach us in soccer... turns out, since he was up so high in the back pack, Lincoln must have been watching Mrs. Kuhn's group- b/c somehow he got it! So- not only has Linko surpassed me and Henry this week by walking right around a year old... he's rubbing it in with his fancy footwork...

And in other news tonight- for those who don't already know- we do, in fact, have the best Daddy ever!!! We started building this earlier but bedtime came a callin'. Little do I know, but he's still working and we'll have the big reveal in the morning... check back!

Linko's One!

Has it really been a year? Sometimes I just look at this face and think to myself "I should only be so thankful to be blessed with two sweet brothers God's given me to have as best friends!" Then I realize that voice in my head is really Mommy's voice ...reprimanding me for a sibling interaction gone wrong. But I really do love them. Linko's like my big, real live baby doll... only he almost weighs as much as I do. Promise this was the first time we fed him cake.

Since he's only one, we got to impose upon him our own idea of fun for his B-day dinner celebration... roasting hot dogs on the fire.

And we're all about baby sign language... Henry and I are thinking of switching over completely, ourselves, if it'll get us cake everyday!

But truly, we can't say enough how completely and utterly blessed we feel to be a part of this amazing little boy's life! Every time he cracks a smile... he melts our hearts! Thank you Jesus for a chance to love on and be loved by this little boy! We pray that he knows and trusts You sooo early in his life! And remains in You all of his days.Thanks for a wonderful year!
