Catching Up

These hot summer days are keeping me away from the computer(it's a good thing, really).  I have lots of old photos to post.  Hopefully I will get them all on here in the next week or so.  Stay cool!

What an Amazing Dad

Nate always continues to amaze me.  On this particular morning, Contessa and I slept in until 8 am.  It was a work day for Nate, but by 8 am he had already put in a full day.  Nathan, Layla, Julius and Gunnar had all sat and read their Bibles together.  Then Nate made oatmeal and got them all fed.  After cleaning up the breakfast stuff, he and the kids got in a few rounds of Orchard.  All this occurred before the baby and I were awake and before he left for work!  Now you understand why I think he is so amazing!

Are You Awake?

One of our biggest challenges these days is keeping this little guy awake until bedtime around 7:30 pm.  If he even gets 15 minutes of sleep during the day he is awake until 10 pm or later.  As you can see we didn't succeed the day this picture was taken!

Silly Faces

Spring Flowers

I love all the flowering trees and bushes in our tiny backyard!  The lilacs smell heavenly!

Contessa is 6 Weeks Old!
