So apparently the camera came out while I was out of the house. I do see her looking in the mirror in her room when I go to release her from time out. Maybe this proves she spends a little too much time in there. No no no she is not in there that often I promise :) A sweetie!
Her sad face:
Really sad:
Here is Adeline scared (slightly I would say)
A little more scared:
Really scared:
Worried (I have seen this look in action before!):
Essie only knows super cutie pie look:
So… my mind is stuck on having another blog. This new one (IMPRESS), has the goal of keeping track of cool websites, books we like, and join others in the journey of parenting. We all have learned a lot in just a few short years. Though we tend to learn best when it is real life, though if by sharing something we can spare some poor soul an extra bump or something why not right. I have a lot to learn, so sometimes it may come in the form of a guest post I am hoping and sometimes maybe through comments. Oh the possibilities if I have enough time (don’t we wish we all the time we needed to do what we want to get done – my house would be beautiful – or would it?). Imagine if my intentions became reality. So we shall see what becomes of this adventure. God is able if I put forth the effort. You won’t hear about it on this site anymore. Just cute kids and family fun!
I have titled the blog Impress due God clearly imprinting Deuteronomy on my heart. Really I wanted to title it Impress, Repeat, Repeat, Repeat, Repeat and trust God:
Deuteronomy 6: 4 Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one. 5 Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. 6 These commandments that I give you today are to be upon your hearts. 7 Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. 8 Tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. 9 Write them on the door frames of your houses and on your gates. 10 When the LORD your God brings you into the land he swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, to give you - a land with large, flourishing cities you did not build, 11 houses filled with all kinds of good things you did not provide, wells you did not dig, and vineyards and olive groves you did not plant - then when you eat and are satisfied, 12 be careful that you do not forget the LORD, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery. 13 Fear the LORD your God, serve him only and take your oaths in his name. 14 Do not follow other gods, the gods of the peoples around you; 15 for the LORD your God, who is among you, is a jealous God and his anger will burn against you, and he will destroy you from the face of the land. 16 Do not test the LORD your God as you did at Massah.
So apparently I have not kept up with the videos. However I seemed to have picked it back up again. NO promises on weekly posts though.
Here Adeline had just told Essie. “Come here sweetie, let me help you with that”. We were making muffins and all had on our aprons. Thank you Annie for them! Esther loves her jacket and wears it frequently. Please trust we don’t keep it below zero in our home. Thought that may be evident related to Adeline mostly wearing shorts and tanks all winter long. Sorry… here is the video :)
So another day another injury for Essie. I just yesterday talked with Jill about transitioning out of the crib. She decided to climb out of her crib and boom there it is a big ole goose egg. Martha to the rescue arrived for support. Joel helped me focus once I started watching the goose egg grow… that was pretty freaky to see it happening before your eyes. Peds after hours was great of course and gave great directions on when to call back (if there was real trouble). [In a tone similar to that Old Spice commercial] and back to Martha…special thanks for company and taking care of all us girls this evening. Couldn’t do it without you!
This profile pic looks really gross when you can see it protruing. And Joel it wasn’t anywhere to this level when I called you.
So you might be asking… where is the little one sleeping. In a big girl bed. Due to Peds After Hours directions she went without a nap and just made it to 7pm. Then she fell as sleep in my arms and went straight to Adeline’s twin bed (after I had put the side rail up, that I had just taken down last week). Ahh! hopefully we will have a good night. We have lots of prayers covering us and I am thankful for that. Thank you God for your provision of this being something minor. Isn’t she cute. I think she is going to wear lavender to morrow so her outfit and bruise will match… and then in a couple days a nice yellow. Hmm… maybe they should make a line of clothing that is like bruise camo (purple, yellow, green). I think it would sell better for boys, but my Essie would have at least one outfit.
