T-R-O-U-B-L-E

Adelyn is 9 1/2 months and oh my...I need a nap! This girl is an endless bundle of energy. In the past couple of months she has added lots of new abilities to her bag of tricks. From clapping & waving to constant chatter she can do it all. One day we were talking and our conversation went something like this...

Adelyn: "Hiii-ya!"
Mommy: "Adelyn, are you going to be the next Karate Kid?"
Adelyn: "Yaaa"

She definitely keeps us laughing. Matt & I have certainly noticed her budding personality more and more, but it seems that others have too. The general consensus is that this girl is TROUBLE! But don't take my word for it. Here's what everyone else is saying... Gigi: "What a BUSY BEAVER you are Adelyn! I don't remember any of you girls being so busy & talkative all the time." (By busy she means intently focused on something at all times.)
Dan & Jaaron (parents of 2 1/2 year old Brody. Jaaron is always reminding us that boys use 50% more energy than girls): "She is such a WIGGLE WORM! I don't remember Brody being this much of a wiggle worm at her age."

The Pediatrician in response to my question about separation anxiety: "Well, you know, she's a bit of a STINKER. So I think she's just putting on."

Last Sunday after church our friend Brian sought me out to tell me: "That girl is TROUBLE! I was sitting in the nursery holding Jackson when Adelyn crawled over and untied both of my shoes!" So there you have it. TROUBLE! She keeps us on our toes that's for sure. And we wouldn't have it any other way. It is so cute to see her tease & play with us. She loves to chase Dakota, swim, swing, climb the stairs and open & close doors. She also loves to snuggle whenever she can hold still long enough to do it. I always cherish those moments. They don't last long.

Two!

On August 2nd the Buddy Boy turned 2! He was and still is so incredibly proud of himself over this achievement.   Caiden is the most perfect combination of all boy and sweet and snuggly toddler that there ever could be! He loves trucks and balls, throws caution to the wind, and has a stubborn streak that isn't going anywhere. He adores his daddy more than I can explain, loves to get kisses from mommy and wants to do everything his big sister does. We never knew how much we needed this little boy until he arrived and we are so humbled and blessed because we were chosen to be his mommy and daddy.   How can we thank God enough for you in return for all the joy we have in the presence of our God because of you?   1 Thessalonians 3:9

10 years

Today Matt & I are celebrating our 10 year wedding anniversary! Part of me can hardly believe that it's already been 10 years. I can still remember so many details of that time in our lives. The joy and excitement of the wedding and anticipation for the future. And another part of me knows that 10 years is not that long at all. We've only just begun!   We did not get any digital images from our wedding photographer (it was a different time back in 2003) but a friend took these and gave them to me.   One of my favorite parts of our ceremony was that we signed a covenant. Matt & I signed first and then both of our family's came up and signed. It was a really special part of our ceremony.         I am so thankful for these past 10 years with my best friend! When Matt & I met at a mutual friend's house 12 years ago I never could have imagined all that God had planned. But through it all - the victories and...

AdeG & KK

AdeG & KK: Partners in Crime     They love each other so much!     They can make each other laugh just by breathing...   When Adelyn gets her picture taken...   ...Caiden thinks he needs to have his picture taken.   This is how everyone walks their dog...right?     AdeG & KK - I love you!     Btw...   "AdeG" is a silly nickname for Adelyn that came about from a question like this - "What would my name be if you spelled it a-d-e-g?"   Whenever we do call her AdeG she laughs and says "my name's not AdeG!"    "KK" is what Caiden says when you ask him to say his name. :)
