My Precious Gift

We took these pictures last week... I have so much fun watching my little boy have fun! He was so proud of himself when he lined up all of his vehicles in a row. I think he thought they were now all connected, because he proceeded to sit on the front bike, and slowly move forward, while looking back to see if all the rest followed him. :)

Samuel is such a blessing to my heart! He was playing outside on his own, while I was working inside & trying to keep an eye on him. Before I knew it, he ran inside and announced "doo doo-doo doooo!" (this is his way of saying "ta-daa!") and he held out in front of me two little flowers he had picked for me! My heart just overflowed with love & joy! I gave him the biggest hug and told him how special he was to me and how much I loved this gift!

Then he proceeded to run back outside (this time I watched him) and saw him race to the back of our lawn, bend over and pick up more flowers. He ran back in and gave me more, with the hugest smile on his face! He did this repeatedly a few more times, each time bringing in with him something extra... a pine needle, some dirt, some grass... :)
What a joy this little boy is! Thank you God for giving me this precious gift!

St. Patrick's Day & 27 weeks!

Last Saturday we celebrated St. Patrick's Day with family & friends. Everyone was decked out in their best green outfits, and we had lots of fun times & great Irish food. :)

Here are Samuel & Leia playing with green whistles. What cuties!
Uncle Cool painted the nephew's faces green for the festivities. :) Its hard getting a group of 4 boys to smile at the same time! This is as close as we got...
I love this one of Samuel & his Grandad (or as Samuel says, "Gwandad") He had so much fun at Mamoe & Grandad's house that for the next 2 days, he was begging to go back and play more with his cousins!
And here's a baby bump picture of Jessica at 27 weeks along. This pregnancy is just flying by! (The green design on my cheek is a shamrock temporary tattoo - luckily, it came off easily before church on Sunday!) :)

More posts to come!

Big Boy Room!

Sammy's big boy room is here! We finally finished it (mostly) and Samuel is so excited about his new room! He hasn't started sleeping in here yet - but we're hoping he will be ready in the next couple of weeks! Below are some pictures. :)

Tool Man Sam

So, I got to thinking about how often we used to post videos of Samuel when he was just a wee one... and how we haven't posted a video of him in what seems like FOREVER! So, in honor of our little 2 1/2 year old, here is a 2 minute video of him being a serious tool man, working at his tool bench: complete with safety goggles & tool belt. :) If you've got the time, go ahead and watch it! My favorite part is the very end!

p.s. We're getting closer to completing his big boy room! Yay! The walls are complete, the curtains are hung, and the next step is to assemble his 181 lb. dresser... :) Can't wait to post pictures when its all done!
