6 months!


Yikes!  Josephine is 6 months old!  That's half of a year!  Can I just admit to you that I am completely over the moon for her and I just can't get enough of her.  She is definitely my little princess.  Here is a quick update of our little girl


Isn't she just PERFECT!

*She sits unsupported!
*Her brothers are her favorite thing to play with
*Her giggles make everyone laugh
*She is super vocal (gee, I can't imagine where that comes from)
*She is still an excellent eater and wants to eat whatever you are eating
*Has the bluest eyes and they make strangers stop in their path! (no joke!)
*She still only has a tiny bit of hair but it is definitely RED
*She will study her toys and objects (beofre they end up in her mouth)
*She still HATES tummy time and yells and throws a temper tantrum until you pick her up
*She has a fiery personality to match that hair
*She is in the 57% for weight and 73% for height
And I think my favorite thing right now is that she gives hugs!

She loves being outside

She is full of pure joy

A Quick Update

Well, it has been a month since I last posted on here and in some ways a lot has changed, and in other ways, everything is still the same.

We are still living life and enjoying it to the fullest we can.  Alex is really enjoying being at home and me being his teacher.  Eric is thriving in Pre-K!  We are finally getting somewhere with his letters and numbers!  Josephine is growing and changing every day!  James got a promotion and a raise!  It had been a long time coming, but he is so excited about his new position at work and that he is an irreplaceable asset to the company   It is nice to feel important and needed when you ave worked so hard for so long. James is also doing great in school and really enjoying the challenge. I am still chugging along with all my Mommy duties.  I had to put my cake and dessert business on hold for now due to time constraints, stress and that I had to pack up all of my supplies and store them.  We put our home on the market last week and we are anxious to get it under contract so that we can put some earnest money on a home we fell in love with.  It is in the Lord's hands and we are doing all that we can so that we can prepared and ready for when the Lord says the time is right.  We are feeling very blessed and that our struggles and hard work are really starting to pay off.  Who knows where we will be next year, or heck even next month, but we know that it will be where He wants us to be.  Here are some pretty recent pictures for you.






So until next time...
