some new things

about Judah:

**He decided one day that he can hop on one foot.

**He prayed for his dinner all by himself. It was really cute. I made him a plate of left-over mac and cheese, and I looked over , and he had his hands folded and hear bowed, and was praying....what a sweet little man.

**He can now put on not only flip-flops by himself, but also his tennis shoes!

**He really likes "playing" baseball. And he can really hit it about 50% of the time! (If I throw the ball right at the bat!)

**Books are all the rage right now. We are up to about 15 a day....and not little baord books anymore. Real paper page books that take a little more effort. Here is a pic of him reading with Pastor Donn who was here for a little visit this last weekend.



**He got a new toy today....a Stomp Rocket (ultra)...the best $14 I ever spent. Really, if you have a Costco membership, go buy one of them. NO batteries, and he can do it all by himself, it is really cool to see him be so independant!

what else.. ... ....


How about a family update....

Some of our friends are going through a really tought time right now, their 1 1/2 year old daughter is really sick with Auto Immune Suppressed Hepatitus. Because of this, she can't be on her allergy medicine, and is really showing her allergies to their dog, Gracie, who just happens to be Jager's half sister. So I offered to take Gracie for them, until things settle down, and their daughter can be around Gracie again. And Guiness is still here, so.....if you're counting, that brings the total up to 3 dogs here right now....Here is a pic of Gracie with Jager from last fall...




Brent has the whole weekend off, and we were going to maybe go hiking tomorrow, and it has been raining all day. GRRRRRR.....now what can we do that will give the dogs some exercise without having our house smell of dirty wet dogs? Feel free to make suggestions!


Some pictures Chris took of me and the boys....





Apparently, Judah knows Tai Chi.


Have a great weekend!

I love the picture of Judah doing Tai Chi. You are so cute!! It sounds like things are going pretty well for you. I will pray for that little girl. Take care and don't be too bummed abouth the rain. We have had rain and below 50 degress here this week!

I love those pictures! Is that by your house? That one of Judah is too cute!
Wow 3 dogs! You are a brave woman! :) I thought Guiness was going to a new home.
Costco is on my to-do list this week so I'll be looking for the Stomp Rocket. It sounds like something Garrett would love!
