2/7 through 2/13

February 7th, 2010I've kept you waiting (if you even care) long enough!

Here is my rainbow cake revealed!!!

 

I made this cake for our new Secret Sisters group at our church. At our Secret Sisters, we drew each other's names from a basket. Most of the women filled out a survey about themselves. So, I take my person and (secretly) pray for them throughout the week. I can also surprise them with gifts if I want. And then after a month, we'll reveal ourselves. We'll spend the next 2 months building up relationships before switching sisters and starting again. The whole idea is for spiritual warfare and relationships.

  

And just because I love him:

Splish! Splash! Taking a bath!

My other "baby" and I :-)

Mommy's kisses: 

When I was pregnant and registering for gifts at Target, I came across this bulldog "tough guy" collection: a stuffed animal and matching onesies, shoes, sunglasses, and blankets. I instantly fell in love. I don't know why; I just loved it! I received the onesies and blankets as gifts at my baby shower. I REALLY wanted that stuffed animal, though. I went back to get it later, and it was gone. I did buy the sunglasses, but still missed getting that dog. Six months later, I was shopping with my mom and found the dog at TJ Maxx for only $5- $11 less than at Target! I was SO EXCITED!!! And, Josiah loves it!

Josiah has always loved the water running and sticks his legs out really straight, soaking his feet in it. I finally got a picture of it.

My days with Jaydon and Zoe:

   

How Jesse spends most of his time:

February 11th, 2010

You know how in elementary school, you decorate a paper bag and the kids in your class fill it with cards and candy on Valentine's Day? Well, my mom's work was doing this and it was a competition with 3 different categories: sweetest bag, most like you, and hottest bag. My mom wanted her bag to be all about Josiah, so she came over to help me take "Cupid" pictures of Josiah. 

  

... she won first place for "sweetest bag" and received a lot of votes for "most like you" too!

I babysat my friend Kim's two kids today. Hannah is 3 and Jadon is 3 1/2 months old.

My family is training for a 5k "marathon" in May. So every Saturday we've been going to the park and walking/running the trail.
