Erin Grace - 10 months old

Here are a few of Erin Grace. She is swinging at our school playground in VA.You can see our apartment behind her. There are two white buildings. One is the church office and the other is the apartment. Erin is walking already! She walks a good few steps and then pounces on you. We thought we would get a quite layed back child after crazy Conor but she seems to be pretty crazy. She has a fun loving personality and we love her so much. Since this pic she has two more bottom teeth.

Ginger Bread House and a whole lot of FaMiLy FuN!

I asked God to give me patience to enjoy this stage of living in a smaller space. I think He has answered me and i think He has given me a joy to be here and have fun with the family. There is not that much space to clean and we do not have laundry here so I have a lot of time to play and read to the kiddos. not to mention make ginger bread houses. We want Christmas to be a fun, stress free time of the year at our house and so far that is how we feel. So if you are feeling stressed - take a deep breath and think of what is important to you....

The Move

This is our modest (to say the least) Christmas tree. Conor thinks it is awesome so that makes me think it is awesome but I know what it may look like to the naked eye :) The kids travelled well from IN to VA - Conor likes to sleep with his blanket over his head. Our friends Meagan and David :) Conor loves to play along with David on his guitar.

Children's Museum in Indy

We thought it was funny that Erin Grace was chewing on her shoe in the midst of so many cool toys! And of course Conor found the lawn mower :)

The kids and I stayed with Laura for a few days over thanksgiving and she brought us to the children's museum. It was alot of fun and we will go again! Lots to do in there!

Thanksgiving with the Solareks and Millers

I love watching the kids play and interact with their family.

Thanksgiving with the Solareks and Millers

We had a lovely thanksgiving with James' side of the family. It was nice for us to see them all before we moved to VA. Conor wants to go to Grandma and Papa's house and we tell him that they will visit soon (hint hint)

Packing Up

Here a few pics from the day of the move. Jeannie brought us a meal and Conor and Erin Grace are sharing with daddy :) Thanks to all who helped. We needed you!!

Best Buddies

I think I can safely say that Titus and Conor are best buddies. Here is a pic of their first sleep over. They had such fun together and boy did they both take great naps the following day!

Conor - the fire fighter

When we stayed with the Devlin's, Conor got to go to the fire station and it was so cool! Now when he sees a firetruck he says 'I was on one of those'. Gota love pride in a 2 yr old :)
