Lily's new trick

Check this out! Lily can roll her tongue! For the last 3 days this is all she does! I come in to get her in the morning and she is laying in her crib with her tongue curled. I change her diaper and she entertains herself by curling her tongue. She sneezes and her tongue curls! I kinda feel like she is rubbing it in because I can't curl my tongue! She gets it from her daddy.

Thanksgiving with the family

We had such a wonderful Thanksgiving with our family this year. There is so much to be thankful for...our friends and family, our home, our church, our marriage, our baby girl, our jobs....and so much more. But nothing compares to the hope that we have in Christ Jesus.

"Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! According to his great mercy, he has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled and unfading, kept in heaven for you, who by God's power are being guarded through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time." 1 Peter 1:3-5. What a gift! Thank you Father God.

Answered Prayers

Kyle had been telling me, "you just wait...the Lord will provide...every time God puts a desire like this in my heart, He always comes through." He had been asking the Lord to provide a newer, safer vehicle for Lily and I to drive around town in. The other day Kyle said to God, "I am sorry for not being content with what you have given us. All our lives are in your hands and if you think we need a different vehicle I trust that you will provide it. Until then, I will be content with what we have." A few days later his mom called and said that grandpa and grandma are buying a new car and they are giving her (Kyle's mom) their '06 Camry...but she said that she wanted us to have it! Once again God has done "immeasureably more than we could ever ask or imagine" Ephesians 3:20. So here is a picture of our new car! Thank you Lord!

Baby in the Mirror

Lily has a new best friend whom she gets so excited to see each day! This little "baby friend in the mirror" seems to always dress the same as Lily, she has the same expressions as Lily, she even has a mommy that looks just like Lily's! I think this is what makes them such great friends:)
