Little Princess Pushing Her Stroller

She LOVES wearing that crown. And a pink pair of bunny ears that Grandma Kimble gave her last spring. I think she's really going to like dress-up when we get to that stage.

New Blog

I know I'm not very good at keeping this one up to date, but I've started another blog that is not so much about the life and times of our family as it is about an avenue for me to write. Check it out if you want:

Taking Steps

I imagine we're just a few weeks away from a child running around with wonton abandon.

Happy Birthday Alaina

You are one year old! It's hard to imagine that one year and one day ago, you were still in my tummy. We didn't even know you then. We don't remember what it was like to not have you. We love your curiosity, your silliness, your chatter and your cute little smile. You bring joy and sunshine, even when you're crying. Right now your favorite game is peekaboo, but we know it will change soon. We love you at this age, but we are looking forward to seeing you grow and change and learn new things about this world. We pray that you will know the Lord at an early age, and that you will learn to hate sin. Jesus loves you, Alaina, and so do we.

Love,

Mommy and Daddy

Mother's Day and Alaina's Dedication

Alaina was dedicated at church on Mother's Day. What a great way to celebrate! She's almost one year old and we still sometimes can't believe that she's ours. Or what an awesome responsibility parenting is. We're so grateful to find a church that is as committed to godly parenting as we are. We need all the support and encouragement we can get!

It was also great to dedicate Alaina at the same time the Gilletts were dedicating Avery. We didn't get a great picture of our two families, but I think you can see Kelvin's nose in a few of ours. :) We love them.

And by the way, Alaina was the noisiest baby on that stage. Apparently she saw the lights and the mic as an opportunity to say the only two words she knows, "kitty cat" and "dada." She's not shy of the public eye.

She Likes to Stuff Her Mouth
