I just wanted to share this story with you. I don't really know how to prepare you for it.

We serve an Awesome God who is in control of every situation. I hope you are blessed by this. We feel blessed to have a beautiful, healthy baby boy. This story makes me realize I am ready for another baby-

All over-

He still isn't crawling on his knees yet, but he can sure army crawl anywhere he wants to go!
Today I sat him down on the floor of his room with some toys while I made him a bottle. When I came back in, he was under his rocker :)



Such a funny boy!

Pearly Whites :)

Henry always wanted to put my tooth brush in his mouth when he would see me brushing my teeth, so we bought him his own tooth brush! He loves it! Every morning when I brush, I get his out and he likes to brush his teeth too! He has 3 teeth and 2 more are coming through!



I feel like Riley doesn't get quite as much attention anymore-
We still love you too Riley man!


A few pics of mom and Henry getting ready yesterday morning :)

Going Green

Its been a little while since I posted anything on here...sorry! Henry has been sick and Brian has been working like crazy, so we haven't really had a lot of things to take pictures of :)
Henry is starting to feel better (we think he had an upper resp. infection :( Poor baby, it was his first time to be sick and he wasn't very happy about it! He is also cutting his other top tooth, which didn't help things. So while Brian has been so busy, I have been working outside. I went to water some plants a few weeks ago for the Savages, and became inspired to have more flowers around our house! It has taken us a few weeks to just do a few things, but Brian has been so busy, and Henry doesnt like me giving my attention to anything else for too long :)
Anyway, it started with a few plants for our front door...
Brian thought that these few things would tide me over for a while-

Then I got a few things for the back porch. Alot of the plants at Lowes are really cheap right now, which has helped our little project!



Then it moved to the backyard!! It took us a while to dig out all the grass around the house. The ground is so dry around here that it was like digging up rocks!
The plant on the right is an orange tree!! I've always wanted one and they were 50% off last weekend!! It still needs to be planted, but they told me the best time to do it would be in November, when it has cooled off a little.






This was Brian trying to hall off all the dirt we dug up. It took him about 30 min to move the trash can from the backyard to the front! It was pretty heavy! We are actually surprised they took it!




This was a quick shot of us outside. This is the new face Henry likes to make!
Pretty cute!
Still no crawling yet.... we're trying!
