Summer 2010

Wow, time sure does fly when your having fun. The last few months have been very busy experiencing all the firsts with Lucy. From baby shower's and babies being born (cole & Ruby) to planting the garden, dentist appointments, the zoo, first cougar's football game, peony fest, concerts in the park, preschool, funerals, fireworks at the forth of July, parades, a baby dedication, swimming at the club Conn's pool, making quilts, walking the country block and jumping on a trampoline with our awesome neighbors, camping out, the Van Wert County Fair, horse races, fishing and the new tree swing life is good!

English words are pouring out left and right! This week while taking Lucy out of bed she told me "mom, I'm cold, SERIOUS"! I nearly cracked up. The kid is our entire life. Jb and I just stop in our tracks daily of all the cute and funny things she does. The following are just a few...

listening to the snap, crackle pop cereal every morning, her praying "God is Grape", shaking her booty when she falls down and almost wants to cry, dancing and singing in the car with a fake microphone to her favorite song "sweet home alabamie", tooting and telling us is stinky, kissing us and asking for one more "please", jumping on the bed, running around the house naked and not wanting to leave the house without her baby doll, lip gloss, nails polished, purse full of beads and a sippy cup! Just to name a few.

As I reflect over the last 7 months of our time with her I see so clearly how good the lord has been to us. We are beyond blessed and are grateful of this child who has changed us forever!
