JC designed Emerson's birth announcement. He's so talented, don't you think? :)

I could eat her up, I love her so.

Doesn't this face just make your whole day better?

Lukie and Lion

They are BFF's...just like Calvin and Hobbes.

Precious

This was taken when Emerson was about 1 1/2 weeks old. If you need a photographer, call my friend, Kelly!

Life with Em J is good! She is smiling a lot now...we just can't seem to catch it on camera!

Imagination

Yesterday we were talking about heaven. Luke asked "How do we get up there to see God? Maybe we could use a pogo stick!"

This morning he came into our room at 6 a.m. and said, "I have a stuffed up nose. But I think I can get it with my finger!"

In the car he was acting out a scene with Buzz and Woody from Toy Story. In the movie, Woody says, "There's a snake in my boot." So, Luke had Buzz ask Woody, "Is there a snake in your boot? Let me check. I don't see it! Maybe it's under your hat."

Even as I type this, I hear him pretending behind me. He is using a "deep" voice for Woody. "Woody" just told him, "You're strong" and Luke replied, "Thanks!"

He is constantly saying stuff that cracks me up. Either that, or he's saying stuff that gets him in timeout. Life with an almost-3-year-old is NOT dull.

Aaaahhhhh....

Since our Young Life retreat was cancelled this weekend, we had a nice, relaxing time at the house. It's kind of nice when your plans fall through and you have nothing to do! We spent Saturday lounging around, watching movies, and keeping warm.

Deja Vu

I keep saying how much Emerson looks like Luke. And it's so true! Every time I take a picture of her, I think...hmmm...I've seen that picture before. Check out the split screen. Emerson is on the left and Luke is on the right. They're both about 6 weeks old. Isn't that crazy? They're clones!

Buddies

Relaxing with Uncle Adam while watching The Little Mermaid. :)

Em J

1 month old!

Emerson is doing great. She has started sleeping a little better at night...still gets up every 3 hours to eat, but will actually sleep in her crib between feedings, instead of sleeping while we hold her. She's awake more during the day and has even thrown a few smiles our way. She is so precious and a really good baby!

Speechless

Today I was clipping coupons. Luke asked me what I was doing, so I explained that I was trying to save us money. His response?

"Save Money. Live Better. Walmart."

Wow...I'm speechless...
