A little moment

I just had one of those moments as a parent when you realize how much your child is growing up. Tonight after baths EK brushed all of her hair BY HERSELF! O mean I didn't even have to "touch it up." It's a small thing but one of those things that remind you that in a few years she'll be wanting certain haircuts, blow drying and styling it and wanting highlights! Please just.stay.little!

a call to pray

Friends,

I have a sweet, sweet friend Karis who is pregnant. At her 20 week sono they found out that their baby boy has skeletal dysplasia (dwarfism). His lower spine is at a 90 degree angle, his legs are measuring at 15 weeks and his feet are too small and have fluid on them. The doctors said he may not even make it outside of the womb. There is no family history of this and they have a healthy adorable baby girl that is 15 months, Riley.

Karis and Kenten along with their family and friends are believing God for a MIRACLE! They go back for another sono in two weeks and we are asking for people to pray and believe God that baby Andrew will be completely healed!!!! We know that with God NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE. I would ask that as often as you remember them you would pray and believe God for this miracle. Please also pray hope and peace over Kenten and Karis.

"I say to you, if you have faith as a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, 'move from here to there,' and it will move; and NOTHING will be impossible for you." Matt 17:20

please pray and believe with us for this mountain to move...

9 months!

our sweet, sweet Molly is 9 months old today...when EK was 9 months I wrote my nine favorite things about her so I thought it would be fun to do the same with molly! there are so many things to say, but here are some of the things i am really loving...

9. watching you play in the bathtub...you love to splash and play with Emery Kate

8. you are 9 months and not crawling. you are content to sit and play with toys all day...not interested in getting anywhere...you know I won't leave you behind :)
7. how Emery Kate makes you laugh ALL the time...even when she's wrestling with you. If we do the same thing as her it will get a smile but not a belly laugh like it does if your sister does it.

6.your baby blues...they melt me...

5.how you are so sweet and calm that one day I cut your finger when trimming your nails and the only way I knew was b/c I saw blood on your finger.

4.your cabbage patch baby cheeks...as marci would say they are so yummy I could sop them up with a biscuit :)

3. I love how you have the relaxed, i will roll with the punches kind of attitude...at least one of your naps each day is probably in the carseat and you do great with it.

2. how you will smile at anyone who looks in your direction.

1. how you make my cup overflow.

i love you Molly Elise
