Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will direct your paths.
Proverbs 3:5-6

Just like his daddy!

We have had a great day, laying around the house, watching cooking shows, doing absolutely nothing.   We don't get these days too often, so when we do, we take advantage.  Then both Bob and I realized that he HAD to pick up his dry cleaning today.  I just assumed he would make this a quick trip by himself.  I think I heard him ask if either girl wanted to ride with him.  Of course, Robel was not going to go.  He still has his PJ shirt on, no shorts but only a diaper.  Bob gets ready to leave.  I was sitting at the computer and he comes over to kiss me goodbye (he's good like that)!  All of the sudden, here comes my little man, all puckered up.  I leaned down, plant a kiss on him, he waves and says "bye!"  Bob had no choice.  Robel is along for the ride.

I like it that he is realizing he SHOULD kiss his mama before heading out!  That boy kind of has me wrapped around his little finger (just like his daddy).  But shhhh, don't tell anyone!

3 Months Home!

Time flies when your having fun...or when you are having fun and adjusting to having a toddler in the house again!  Three months ago yesterday, we brought our sweet boy home and we became a family of five.  We have laughed so much as a family.  I love dinner time because our boy is truly a performer and dinner time is when he has his audience (and lets not forget that he is strapped in the high chair and I am not running after him)!  The girls have really surprised us with their desire to help.  If they see something that needs to be done, they jumped to it before being asked, and they love to play with their brother. 

I always said we had such a quiet house.  Now that Robel is here, boy have things changed.  His favorite thing to do is chase the girls and if he can make them squeal and scream, all the better, and he joins in with lots of squeals and growls of his own.  His newest "show" is his different faces (happy face, silly face, surprise face, mad face). 

We are truly blessed.  I feel so strongly that God perfectly placed just this boy in our family.  There was always a missing part to our family and he is the piece that has completed us.  He is funny, and lovable, stubborn and tough and we have never been happier!!! 

So here are some pictures of the past 3 months...
