New Friends

Last night we had some friends over for games and fellowship. They have a little girl named Rebecca who is about 4 months older than Caleb. It was the first time Caleb has ever really had someone his age in "his" territory. It was interesting to watch the dynamics between them. At one point he ran around picking everything up that his little hands could hold, all the while muttering "mine, mine, mine." Today he has been asking for "more Becca." We are so glad she came to play!

Caleb's Prayer

After hearing that I was nervous to make a certain phone call...

Dear God,
Momma too!
Amen

He then gave me a big hug and kiss.

A moment to remember!

Happy Birthday Mom!

This weekend we celebrated my mom's birthday with Angel food cake and lots of Kleenex. No... it wasn't overly emotional or anything, after all she is only 24 this year. The boys were pretty sick, coughing and sneezing all over the place. I fear that my mom's present from them might end up being their sickness. Thanks for letting us celebrate you mom, germs and all!
We love you!

A Very Schill Christmas

After arriving home from our trip to Washington we were fortunate to get to spend some time with my family to celebrate my brother's birthday and Christmas.

Caleb made me smile as he used his own money to buy a gift for Uncle De De (Stephen) and Aunt Heather. He was very excited to watch them open the presents although I think a big part of him wanted to steal them back!

Zach found another box to play in

"wow" Look at all MY presents!
