Life keeps moving

No matter what you're feeling, life keeps moving. Some might get a bit frustrated with that aspect of life and wish it could slow down to our mode of exercise (or lack thereof); I for one am utterly thankful that the sun continues to rise. I love that the days move ahead and a new season is blissfully on the horizon (my favorite one happens to be patiently waiting on the hill as I type). Thanks be to God that He keeps the world turning and continues to prepare a place for us at home. Ceasing to see hope means ceasing to see excitement. I'm so excited for what's ahead...whatever that may be for me.


When your little one sleeps an extra hour, why not make some espresso brownies!? And yes, eat them with a spoon.

We moved to the Roswell/Alpharetta area specifically because of "Touch a Truck Day." Why else?



Boys and their trucks. There's nothing sweeter.





Finally got something above our bed after three and a half years. And yes, I let Silas paint it.

I mean what else would I hang up on my wall?

Silas had his first week of "Parents Morning Out." He wasn't quite sure about carrying his own backpack though.

You're growing up too fast bud.

He toppled over 30 seconds after this. :)

Silas loved his new,  sweet friend Penny... can't wait for more play-dates!



First day of school outfit!
First blackmail picture outfit!

"His legs flail about as if independent from his body!"

If you are a "Friends" watcher as I have been known to be, you will appreciate that quote. I am getting to see the Chandler Bing's greatest fear--Michael Flatley and the "Lord of the Dance" performance. I am so excited! I've seen a lot of different types of performances in my lifetime (even the gravely strange or soberly artistic modern dance shows), but I've never seen an Irish Riverdance! My mom got tickets for us back in October for my birthday. She is so astute and thoughtful! In case you aren't familiar with "Lord of the Dance." Here is what Wikipedia has to say about Mr. Flately's Dance: "Lord of the Dance is an Irish musical and dance production that was created, choreographed, and produced by Irish-American dancer Michael Flatley, who also took a starring role. Michael Flatley found his first fame starring in Riverdance, but he left the show in 1995 before its debut in London after a disagreement over creative control. F

When you smile...

The whole world smiles! This was his very first "conscious smile" Who says you can't dress up little boys for fun too? Silas enjoyed sleeping at the lake instead of fishing or swimming. Anyone surprised? Our newest pastime consists of singing to Silas until he shows us his new array of smiles. Matthew discovered this newest ability when he began singing a classical ballad... I won't embarrass him by naming the lyrics. It doesn't matter how tired you are, this will make everything better! I mean come on. Are you still having a bad day? Did that make it better yet!? Had my  first few outing without the little man to go to coffee, dance, and this beautiful woman's wedding shower. Love you Christi! Thanks to my old roomie for some over-sized coffee mugs to start my day right. A cup of joe and the Word make life worth living. This is his favorite gesture.  I think he's solving the world's problems. That a boy Silas. I knew
