End of the Year- Kindergarten

Romy is slowly gaining interest in eating.  She loves scrambled eggs and guacamole.  She has completely skipped the baby food and is into what we eat.  She is such a happy and sweet baby I wish all of you could experience her on a daily basis.  

I got roped into making 80 cake pops for Gwen's kindergarten graduation.  I haven't volunteered for much this year... I guess this is my payback!

Gwen and a classmate

Gwen's teacher giving her an award for being "determined".  I can confirm that.

Tried to get a picture of both of them.  Of course Zeke picks this moment to be not cooperative.

Gwen posing and her friend Saffie is in the background.  I hear a lot about Saffie and Gwen enjoys playing with her.  Zeke's still sulking cause I told him no more juice.

This school year has gone very fast.  Lord, help me to remember and not have all my brain cells sucked out my breastmilk.

Life in the Cul-de-Sac

Gwen and her friends playing dress up.

She's just beautiful!

Kansas Spring

Wanna see what the Kansas spring is like?  Take a look at this video I took last Sunday!  It's the land of extremes here!

Sabbath

Lately Ben and I have made a commitment to keep Sunday free of plans and full of time with the Lord and family and face to face contact with neighbors and friends.  It has been good learning what is restful to us and how to navigate and get it all done without invading Sunday.  We have started attending a Saturday night service at church and so even Sunday mornings are spent riding bikes, watching the kids play, making breakfasts and reading the Bible.  

Romy woke up one day recently and decided she'd like to try food.  She hasn't gotten fantastically good at eating, but she's opening her mouth and deciding what she likes.  Here I am taking a video of her and I guess someone took a photo too.  Too. much. technology in one photo!

Ben's mom, Pam, and Romy at church at Romy's dedication.  The verse we chose for her is Jeremiah 1:5 "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart"

No, we aren't at a night club.  This is church.

In the afternoon we went and visited Ben's Grandma and Grandpa.  This is Romy's namesake.  Ben's Grandma's name is Georgia and Romy's middle name is Georgia.
