I made a header image out of the pic of Dave playin’ his trombone, so don’t think it’s strange or anything if you see him up there. Also, I don’t know why, but Safari is really screwing up the picture sizes, even though the instructions are correct… they should only be 500 px wide but [...]

Last night, we all loaded up the car and drove to San Marcos where the church band played some rockin’ 70′s tunes for a street festival. The weather was hot, the music was hot, and we all had fun. James and I mostly hung out with Rachel [...]
So, the pediatrician said that James could eat any of the food that we eat. We have been giving him samples of our food for months now, but tonight, James got his first slice of pizza…Hungry Howie’s Pizza to be precise (this is the first time that I’ve tried Hungry Howie’s, and I give [...]

James is growing so quickly. We could swear that he is an inch taller every time he wakes up from a nap that was longer than 2 hours. His [...]
In case you haven’t heard already, James will be a big brother next February. While we are very excited about this news, we are also a little bit scared and a little bit surprised. We know that God will provide all we need so we are not worried about how we will handle bringing another [...]
James has eleven of his twenty teeth. He has B, D, E, F, G, I, Q, P, O, N, and L so far and tooth S will probably be broken through by the time we go to church on Sunday.

James has so much fun in swim class, especially when it’s his turn on the “island!” The class consists of four (sometimes five) kids and six “stations” where there are different skills to be practiced. The Island station is to build confidence standing in water. The Jumps [...]
