Where do I begin? I'll start with Abe, almost 2 months old, he gives us half smiles all the time. This week he has transitioned, very well, from sleeping in his car seat to crib for bed and naps. He has been sleeping at night from 11-5 on average. He also has been cooing and making those cute baby noises. Titus has been wearing underwear and has not had an accident in them since we returned from our trip. He still goes in his diaper but only wears that for naps and bedtime. I do not even have to ask him if he needs to go..he tells me! Titus can count to 5, and identify some letters. Caleb is reading well and received his first report card, which he did very well on. Lately he has been singing all the time. Then there is me, I told you about the Lord working in our hearts while at Falls. One of my decisions was to rise early to have devotions, I have always been pretty consistent having them in the afternoon during the boys naps but Caleb's keeps getting shorter and I was being distracted and rushed. Monday I started staying up after Abe's feeding - it's going well. I am also trying to change around our family schedule more, cutting out the TV a lot more and adding productive, fun and ministry related things into it. I am planning on doing things with music on Mondays, Art on Tuesdays, Cleaning Thursdays and Family game night on Fridays. I would love some more suggestions! I made a new to us cookie recipie, cowboy cookies, and love them a little too much to make them again. We also are in the midst of selling half of our possessions to fit into the trailer we are moving into, the yard sale is scheduled for next Friday and Saturday. I know in the future years to come there is going to be a lot of NEW coming at us. I am praying that through all the change we will continually seek to change to be more like Christ.

What's New?

Sounds great! I'm eager for ideas so keep us posted. How about the cowboy cookie recipe too?!
It's neat how the Lord works. I was just telling Aaron that the Lord has been really working in my life on my priorities like my devotions and less TV time at night and spending more time as a family. We've had fun making popcorn with the kids, we made homemade pizza calzones and they got to put whatever they wanted in them. We are going to try a big puzzle this weekend, and I got a big art book from the library to do more art projects. Music is a good idea, I think I'll implement that too! I love how the Lord works in our lives and to get ideas from others. Thanks for your post!
