Jun. 7, 2007 - I know, I know I'm horrible at this...
Yes, I know I am a terrible blogger! I guess it is just not my thing. I love reading everyone else's blogs I just don't enjoy writing my own. I usually have something to say but I usually tell either my husband, sisters, mother-in-law, or my mother over the phone. Then I forget it. I never think of blogging about it. Well, maybe I do, but I'm way too lazy to ever get around to actually doing it. Like today when my boys were ever so carefully shaping their peanut butter and honey sandwiches into guns and having a war right at the kitchen counter (we use our kitchen counter instead of our table- easier cleaning). I thought to myself, "That might be a good blog entry". Or how about when Noah started crawling? Or the time Jonathan used so much toilet paper after having a 'movement' that it filled the toilet and had absorbed all the water in the bowl? Or when Jonathan smeared lotion over every square inch of his room? Or maybe even the time Austin smeared lotion all over the baby- head to toe-literally. Oh sure, there have definitely been several 'bloggy' moments. I just never get around to actually putting it down. Anyway, things have been going well. Noah is sixteen pounds now and on the charts! We also got the go ahead to start solid foods! Mommy and Noah are excited. Baby food is way cheaper than the formula he is on. I'm hoping his formula intake will be allot lower now. Noah has also been busy exploring the world around him. He is a very busy baby since learning to crawl (or 'army' crawl- at this phase). I'm just so thrilled that he is developmentally right about where he is supposed to be.
Tim and I have been attending a new church. We really feel at home there. We've been going there now for about three months. A family from the church asked us over for dinner a few weeks ago and we had an excellent time. Sunday the mother asked me and the kids over again for a play date. We went there yesterday and had a great time once again! I feel there are really some good people we can really get to know, which I'm pretty excited about because at the church we were attending prior to moving you didn't have a whole lot of 'closeness' -something I had wished there was more of. I can honestly say that I really never made any really close friends for the five years that we went to there. Sure, I could call some of them friends, but never anyone you could really call up and say, "hey, let's go do something today" or, "would it be alright if I came over to today- I need some company". I lived closer to family before though so it really didn't matter to me all that much. Our family was our friends. Now that we live further away from them though it's a little bit harder to be able to just drop everything and spend a day with them. We really need some close friends around us. I feel the Lord has sent us to a church where we (I) can have make some long lasting friendships. We are excited to see what the Lord has in store for us!
Here are a few snapshots of our boys. Hope you enjoy!
