Farm livin is the life for me

The children have really enjoyed living out here in the country with all of this room to roam. Little David is loving every minute of it! Papa bought him a set of walky talky's so he can go around as he pleases as long as he checks in. His handle is "goose" and Daddy's is "maverick"....very original. :)

Papa and the boys spent several hours over the last few weekends making a clearing out in the "wildwood" for a fort. I must admit, it is one cool hideout...complete with firepit. Joey, Les, Carlysle and Callie were all here this weekend too so we had a family bonfire on Friday night. We all had a blast cooking hotdogs, jiffy pop and smores on the fire!

Pretty Feet

Grant let me paint her toenails for the first time and it was so stinkin cute! I honestly didn't think she would sit still for it, but she did! I don't own any "baby pink" polish so it was either black, or bright red. I went for the red! She looked so cute and walked around showing her Daddy her painted toes. Daddy said he wasn't quite ready for it but he loved seeing his little girl smiling about her pretty feet!

First Day of New School

David and Grant were both eager to start their first days of school in SC. David is attending Emmanuel Christian School in Hartsville and Grant is going to the preschool at St Barts Episcopal church in Hartsville. They both did very well when we dropped them off. David's class was excited to see him and had already prepared for the new student, they were fighting over who would sit next to him. So cute! Grant was easily won over when she saw that her new classroom had a big slide, and two stuffed Barney dolls. She says everyday, "Barney slide". When the novelty of those things have worn off, her teachers know the root to Grant's heart is thru her stomach...they keep snacks on hand for when we leave her. It's a sure fire way to bring her right out of a fit!

I only have one pic of each on their first day. Little David wanted Daddy to walk him in so I sat in the car with Sissy...deep sigh. We have so enjoyed having Daddy around for all of these little/big moments that I am more than willing to step aside and let him have his turn. We are so proud of our precious angels!

Hello again

Well, it appears as though my blog has become outdated! I am so sorry that I have not been updating, especially to all of my Texas friends that I told this was a way to stay in touch with us. We are doing well and getting settled in. I'm just wondering when it will stop feeling like a long visit. David and Grant are really loving their new schools and that makes Mommy very happy. Daddy is still job searching and we continue to pray hard for God to open the right door for us. I am feeling well and am still amazed at how quickly this pregnancy is going. Baby #3 will be here before we know it! We still haven't settled on a name yet but I have a few I like. I'll keep you posted when we decide.
I still can't find my usb device to upload my pics but I will try to get a new one so I can put up some new pics. Hope everyone is doing well!
