I'm going to miss this...

Elijah is great at making his little brother laugh! I was in the kitchen yesterday making dinner and Ethan was sitting in his seat in the dinning room and I hear him start to laugh. I knew Elijah was with him and this is what I found when I went to check it out. Elijah was just laughing at him and that was making Ethan laugh!

And I thought "I'm going to miss this!"

We were talking...

... and Ethan laughed right out loud at me! How precious to hear! Totally made my day!
I just had to share!

Pictures to come of Ethan discovering his hand. So cute how he goes cross eyed while studying his hand in front of his face!

I'm on our old laptop and it won't read my cameras new memory card. For some reason Geoff has a password set on our new lap top and I can't remember it so i'll have to wait for him to get home before i can load my pictures.

Maybe i should go try it again... i was trying to remember it this morning before my cup of coffee and my brain wasn't in top shape yet. =)

Special Moments

I have to write this down for my own sake so I can remember it always. I love how Elijah is able to share his thoughts now. It's fun to hear what he is thinking!

Earlier this evening Elijah and I were visiting some blogs and saw one story about a baby and Elijah got excited and said "She has a baby too! Like our baby!" I said "Are you glad we have a baby? You like our baby?" he nodded and said "Thank you for baby."

A Year Ago Today...

This is what we were doing a year ago today! My memories from this day are of spending some precious time together with my husband and son as a family. It was just such a beautiful day! The memory of warm sun shine and brilliant blue sky really stick in my head!





Looking back and seeing what has happened this year is amazing. So much has happened that we had no idea was coming at this point! We've moved over seas to Northern Ireland and had a baby just to name a couple of the major things. But one thing that remains the same is that GOD IS GOOD and FAITHFUL. He has brought us closer together as a family and we trust that He will continue to lead us where He would have us go.
