God's son....John????


Jake went to VBS last week. He absolutely loved it! The theme was knights and princesses, which he is completely into these days anyways. Well, the knight part at least. Each morning he had a verse he was to memorize and recite. He learned them all, perfectly, until we got to the church. Now you have to understand, by the end of the week there were 300 kids enrolled in the camps with over 200 volunteers then all the parents/siblings dropping kids off. That's a lot of people and Jakers is a tad shy at times. My favorite memory verse recitation went something like this:
"For God so loved the world He gave His one and only son John...3 times! My mom said she'd never give me away though!"
I'm sure this didn't even make sense to him but the John 3:16 part "confused" him that morning! soooo funny. He won an award for being such a good memory verse learner!

One more time....

I made a deal with my cousin that if she responded to my email, which she NEVER does, I would start blogging more regularly, which she has begged me to do. Well, to my amazement, she actually responded! So, here I am, hoping this time around I might actually stick with it.

My little baby starts kindergarten in less than a week. I am still in denial about this, even though I finally did cave and we went school supply shopping last night. He thinks it's great and is so excited. I hope that excitement stays...he's not very good with new situations, esp when mom leaves. He's going to a french immersion school so that is another whole new adventure for our family. Neither Brad nor I speak French...guess we'll all learn together!

Little E will start preschool. He is such a busy little guy and loves to chatter away to everyone, loudly! I think he's going to love school and all his new friends. I think I'm going to love getting some structure and discipline into that child...my little spirited one! He is the cutest little guy and just when you think you've lost all patience, he melts your heart. love him.

Baby P is expanding my tummy more and more on a daily basis and I have no doubts that he will either be an amazing soccer player or very active in some sort of way. He moves like crazy, usually just when I'm going to bed and trying to sleep! Names for this little man are not coming easy. B and I don't seem to agree on any of the same ones. I'm sure when the time comes I will agree to anything, just to get him out!! Due date: 11/11/11!!!

It is now 1:00 am and I should be sleeping!!! Here's hoping I'm back before Sept 2012!!



Yes...these are my angels after they pulled a drawer out of the dresser (breaking it) and then climbing in behind the other drawers and hiding. Took me a while to find where they were but their giggles soon gave it away!
