It's a Girl!

We are so happy to share our news! Little Miss H joined our family this past Sunday evening, June 14. She was 6 pounds, 14 ounces and measured 20 inches long. It was an extremely quick labor and delivery, and we are so thankful to be holding her in our arms now. We trust that our little H will know the Lord as her refuge and help others to know Him as well because of who she is and how she lives her life. We pray that she will also stand on the truth of Jesus Christ.

We love our H and are excited to share her with you.

First Camping of the Season

A few weekends ago, A took the girls camping with three of his buddies while I enjoyed quality time with some girlfriends. I was amazed at A's ability to accomplish this incredible feat (with the generous and patience assistance of friends––thank you, Jonathan, Eric, and Ian!). Very impressive work. Here's some memories from their wilderness adventure.

Ah, the things that happen when Mommy's not around...


Jonathan invents a new sport.


The morning news report

We're Thinking About Having a Baby Soon

There are so many photos from the last month that I need to post, but I think it's best if I go ahead and post some recent prego photos as I will definitely not be pregnant much longer. Andy took these shots last week in one of our favorite hiking areas. Today I'm nine days away from my due date. We shall see how the next couple of days unfold! We're excited to meet you, Baby!

Family Show

This is one of those things you really wish you would've caught on video. This time, my quick-draw husband was all over it. Oh, how very entertained we are by our children.

Early Spring Fun

While the calendar says spring is here, the weather continues to disagree. I'm watching snow fall outside once again today. Sigh. One day, spring will come. In the mean time, we've been enjoying ourselves thoroughly in the great indoors.

Sugar cookie fest with my little cutie helpers.

A current favorite activity around the house. In just eight weeks, I'll have my own little bundle to carry around. (Eight weeks?!) Won't the three of us girls be quite the sight with our three little joey pouches filled?

Yet another reason why I love my husband. Nail polish party before A went to work the other day. Oh, my love. You are fantastic.

The concentration of it all.

April is, um, FREEZING COLD

Today was the first farmers' market. It was rather chilly and a bit sad as there were only a few vendors braving the elements, but we went and had a jolly good time together. Come on, spring. You can do it!

Us

Nothing's stopping them from hitting the market.

M's face here reminds me a lot of little-girl Aunt A.

While We're At It...

Here's another classy video of the ladies. And a too-cute picture of Miss My-hair-is-finally-starting-to-grow.

Dance Party!

For the first time since E was born 19 months ago, we are posting a video that includes her.

(E, we are so very sorry about this. Please forgive us. We do not love you any less than M...we are just a tad busier this time around, yes?)

Whoop it up, girls! You make us smile.
