Update - Picture style

It has been a whirlwind of things happening in our family these past few weeks. Most of which I hope (God willing) to enlighten you on soon (no, the baby will not be born this soon, sorry that one you have to wait a little longer on)!! We are excited with the path that God is leading us on, but can't share with you right now what that is. We are just having a lot of faith and a lot of emotions lately (mostly me on the emotions, since pregnancy emotions seem to be high right now.)

In my tuesday morning Bible study, I once heard a quote that I have been sticking with through all of this. "Doubt sees obstacles, Faith sees opportunities." I love this and am looking forward to the opportunities that are to come for our family.

In the meantime, here are some activities that we have been embarking on (picture style):

One of the last beautiful days before winter arrives, walk in Castlewood state park.

I took Kaylee to a gymnastics class sponsored by our P.A.T. program.
She actually got into the big "pit" this year. She even asked me to throw her in a few times. She was having a ball with all of it and I could hardly keep up with her.

The parachute is by far her favorite activity, but she only likes to go under it and not on top.
Playing in the leaves that mommy and daddy are raking up.
And lastly, while I helped with a Christmas workshop at Church, daddy and Kaylee headed to the Magic House.
Lots of hands on activities and goofy things too.


So that has been our last few weeks. I can't wait to share with you more info but for now you are just going to have to hang in and wait:) It will be worth the wait, I promise and I will share it with you as soon as I can.

A little strange?

Kaylee and I will often visit daddy at his work. Lately though, I cringe when I come into his office to see this. Anyone else think this is a little strange? We have the progression of marriage and then Kaylee entering the picture. I gave Brian the daddy and me photo frame for Father's day, I believe. Then there is the next photo.

Here, let me zoom in on the issue.
'Yes, you are seeing that right. Brian designs artificial joints and so frequently has hips and knees laying around. Why he thought this needed to be added to the mantle next to his desk is beyond me. I am sure his coworkers love him for this one:) Me, I don't need the reminder of what is happening or going to happen here soon!!

First Big Haircut!!!

A dear friend of mine usually cuts my hair. When I was over this past time, I had her look at Kaylee's hair to just trim it up some and make it even. The only hairs on her head that have been cut since birth have been a few bangs. Now, we are letting her bangs grow out, but I just felt the rest of it needed a little shaping.

Kaylee was so excited to get her turn to sit in the chair and get her hair cut. She did great and loved it!!!


We did not have to take much off at all, except in the back where it was growing in really uneven. She mostly shaped it to her face a little and just cleaned it up. It looks great!!!
