I miss babies.

I miss babies. Aidan isn't a baby anymore; he's close to four years old now, more little boy than baby. He is so much fun, and he is so cute, but it just isn't the same.

A Very, VERY Belated Happy Birthday

It took me three months to realize that Amy did not have a birthday post, and I am sorry. So here is a short one.

Our wonderful AMY ELIZABETH turned nineteen (!) on January 23 this year. We celebrated her birthday with some families from church. The party was lovely, even though many of the guests went home with minor injuries (there was some sparring in the basement: watch for those videos later) .

Amy, you have been an incredible example to all of us younger ones. You are a wonderful sister, and I love you so much. God bless you, Amy!

Our family was commisioned to put together some gift baskets for the speakers. I think we made 10 small and 2 large. It was a nice project to have. I think they turned out pretty well!
This is a small:
