Quick answer to prayer

Sometimes prayers are immediately answered giving us more faith to trust when they seem to go unheard for years. I am so thankful that the day after my last post, Levi stopped throwing up altogether! Thank you so much for praying for our little guy. He still wasn't eager to eat for a while, but in the past couple of days he's been extra hungry! Such a great reason to deal with a fussy Levi! Hopefully this will get our weight gain back in the positive direction before our GI appointment next week. It has been the perfect birthday gift to have all my babies healthy! What a blessing!

The typical "Levi face"

The typical "Silas face"

We went on a nature walk, and I'm sure we got some stares as to whether we were crazy trick-or-treaters a month early.

I've brainwashed my son to love fall even more than me if that's possible.

He told everyone we saw happy "fall day."

Levi double-checked we got all the listed items.


Great birthday weekend!

We took this exact picture at Burt's Farm two years ago...

Wow.... please stop growing Silas!


Even though my hubby had to leave town on my birthday, he got up at 5 am to set this up!

Love homemade presents from Silas!

Levi loved the homemade icing!

Special sugar when you are home with boys on your birthday.

Silas put all his toys in the bag for my birthday present! Sweet boy,  I love your generosity!

Even though we miss daddy, it's been the best birthday ever!

"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

The CubBuster's still got it!

Yes that's right, the Atlanta Braves 2010 opening season began against the infamous Chicago Cubs. My co-worker, office-mate, and dear friend Peter Collman is a baseball (well I guess all sports) fanatic, and knew that to start the season right, he needed to invite the CubBuster to be sure the Braves started the season with a win! The second game of the season started off slow with a 1-0 lead for the Braves, but at the beginning of the 8th, Atlanta was losing to Chicago 2-1. Although others may be slightly tense at this predicament, I was calm and collected knowing I possessed a special gift of busting up on a certain kind of cub. Thank goodness I've still got it (and I guess Chipper still has it too!). Jones hit a two-run homer in the eighth inning and held off the Cubs for a 3-2 win! The CubBuster lives on! Thanks Pete for a fun night! You can see other pics from Turner Field on my Pictures page... ~THE CubBuster
