Brushing Teeth

Lulu loves to brush her teeth. We sing a little song and make it fun. She has always liked getting her teeth brushed and now that she can do most of it on her own, it's her favorite thing to do.
Isn't this just too cute?
And he is just too cute too! Here is Levi with daddy's hat on.

A New Year, A New Bed

Tonight Lulu is sleeping in her "big girl bed" for the very first time. We have been fixing up her room since we moved home and finally her bed is put together so she can sleep in it.
Here is Lulu last December 2008 in her crib that is in the same spot her new bed is now.
This picture is taken from out in the hall peeking into her room.
Here is the same picture a year ago taken from the hall. Just amazing how time flies and how quickly a year goes. I can't believe my baby is sleeping in an actual bed. I would love for time to slow down just a bit. Seeing this just helps remind me to enjoy each moment that the Lord has given me with my children.

Christmas Day 2009

Here are Lulu and Levi Christmas morning. We had a nice relaxing morning and Lulu had so much fun opening up presents. This was Levi's first Christmas and he seemed to enjoy it. He rolled over for the very first time today, so that made it really memorable.
We opened up some presents from Mark's mom at our house. Lulu got an art bin with all sorts of supplies. She was so excited to have her very own pair of scissors......made me a bit nervous. Then we headed over to my parents house for the rest of the day.
Grandma holding Levi, Papa holding their dog Lucy and Lulu getting ready to open a gift.
Uncle Todd and Aunt Stephanie were there. We all sat around and opened up presents together.
My mom gave everyone stockings. When I was little the stocking was my favorite part about Christmas morning.
Here is Levi on his new play mat that his Great Grandma gave him.
Mark and Levi relaxing after a long day. My mom made a bunch of food and my parents opened up their house to anyone who wanted to come by. We got to see a bunch of family from both sides. A few of them got to meet Levi for the very first time. It was a wonderful day to celebrate Jesus's birth.

Immanuel


"God With Us!"


I hope that you all have a wonderful Christmas and remember why we celebrate. Take a moment and click HERE to watch this 5 min. video. It's a great reminder why God sent His son Jesus to be with us and die for us. Jesus is the reason we celebrate Christmas. Blessings.

Therefore the Lord Himself will give you a sign: Behold a virgin will be with child and bear a son, and she will call His name Immanuel. Isaiah 7:14
