Super Sweet

This is who Amanda and I get to go to sleep with every night.  God is amazingly good to us.  Every night after he has a little snack, we lay together and talk to him.  He smiles and laughs and smiles some more and eventually gets tired.  We turn out the lights and call it a day.  It's a good life.

Girls

Our house has been so boy oriented for so long.  The girls are coming into their own as a part of our family and it is fun to watch.  Amanda sent me this picture this morning with the following note.

The girls are playing outside. Lucy is barefoot so Molly's carrying her everywhere.
Funny.

I love my girls.

2 Months with Nathan John

Nathan has been a joy and since we got Amanda all healed up, he has been an easy baby. He loves to be held and loves his siblings.  He's cho chweet. 

Just like her mom

The question I get whenever we have a new baby is, "Who do you think he/she looks like?"  I don't really like this question.  I always feel like the answer is, "He looks like himself."  Then once in a while we'll come across a picture of Amanda or me or Tricia or Joe or Gregg and say, "That's just what Ben/Caleb/Nathan look like."

Last night we found this picture.

Look like anyone else you know?

I told Lucy this morning that I thought she looked like her mommy.  I told her that someday she'll grow up to be just as pretty as her mommy is.

My Boys

TIMBER!

I was up early this morning.  I went out to the woods.  There are few things that I enjoy more than being outside.  There was a big dead old oak tree in our woods that I thought I should take down.  This is my first large tree felling.  With some videos on Youtube and watching John Parker do it last week, I felt pretty sure about what I was doing.  Cut the wedge, did the back cut and down it came.  When Matt woke up, he came out.  I showed him what I'd done.  "Awesome!," was the first thing he said.  It's good when I get that kind of response from one of my kids.
