Curious Cousins

Silas has a fascination with Daddy's golf stuff..... I'm sure that's not by chance. Just wait till your birthday buddy. You gotta surprise coming your way!

We are so grateful for our wonderful sitter, and my dear friend, Caitlyn whom Si gets to play with every Thursday.

Caitlyn's little angel Evie loves showing Silas the ropes. Here's how you put a flower in your hair Silas. (sorry daddy!)

Silas' first birthday is next week. He was quite excited when his party stuff arrived. He loves Curious George!

I think the plates and napkins will be sufficient gifts for his birthday this year. It's always the simple stuff.

We just got back from visiting my nephews in Dallas. I think Easton is telling his mommy that a real police officer would drive on the road, not the sidewalk. Duh!

Silas couldn't wait to pull some people over in Dallas!

Even with his first ear infection before we left, Silas did a great job with the busy week and played well with his cousins.

My sister is such a great mom and works so hard that I wanted to try and pamper her while I was there. Our feast after putting all three boys to bed.

Thanks for sharing your toys Easton and Tanner! You guys really have some cool wheels!

I don't know how moms of twins do it. Tanner and Silas are so close in age that it was tough to keep them both from wanting the same mode of transportation at the same time. 

Even more tough to get them all to smile at the same time. Cheer up Tan! *Mommy tip* If you have more than one child, always have enough of the same toy for each to enjoy. Unless they are old enough to understand the concept of sharing.
I was given a tip for the first birthday: let your child try some chocolate or whatever you're serving the day of his birthday to make sure he doesn't throw up at his own party.
Couldn't pick up big enough bits so he went straight to the source.
I think he liked his first cupcake. We are ready to party now!

    Katie, Thanks for posting these precious pictures of my grandsons. I love to see them all together ... does Tanner ever smile? It looks like Easton and Silas had a smile-off competition (does that mean Silas will be just like Easton?)

A little color

School has officially started for me, and my teachable teenagers will be booming into my room in two days! I can't wait to shape those minds of our future! :)   However, my summer projects are a great reminder of the joyful color and peace I had for two months. :) I found this great idea on Pinterest and thought it would add a great accent color to any room in my home! I still have to put it all together, but here's what the finished product will look like with a little more subtle turquoise: I have it all painted and ready to be assembled!  More pics upon completion! (may be quite a while though now that school is in session... hope you weren't holding your breath.) ~CC

Influenced

influence....... influenced. The latter word signifies a condition where someone else has an effect on your life. Taking off one little letter seems to insight a condition where you are the one acting upon the lives of others. I wish I could claim that I am rarely influenced by the opinions of others, but sadly that is not the case. If it does not go against my beliefs, principles, or well-being, I am one of those people that can easily jump on a bandwagon if presented with the material in an intelligent and legitimate manner. For that reason, I stay away from most things that can have a potential momentary or negative influence on my life. Unfortunately when it comes to little Levi, there are many different people taking care of him, and there are many different opinions regarding his current and future condition. For some reason, since the day Levi was born though, I have not searched the internet for a single thing regarding his care or condition. I believe God has protected me fro...

Break from the blog

As March begins, often we hope for a great thaw in our land. Now Georgia certainly doesn't have any icy soil that needs warming, but our yearning for more light and fresh newness to keep us from numbing appears universal. I have written on this blog for ten years now. From singleness to newlywed to mama of four sickly, but now active, growing boys. It's been a place for me to purge, process, and pray through some of life's biggest changes and challenges. It's also helped me keep distant family and friends informed, but I've felt for some time it's come to an appropriate place for pause. I know that I have many more mountains and valleys to travel if the Lord wills it, and many more personal lessons that I'd love to share and reread to my kiddos one day (and if anyone wants to organize and compile this little landscape into a memoir, please be my guest), but I do not ever want to assume a posture of numbness as it relates to our regular routines. I re...
