Michaella Beth




Creation Museum

Monday we got to go to the Creation Museum.  It was worth the trip!

Mother's Day






Three generations.
Michaella was dedicated on Sunday. 
Keith made us a wonderful breakfast and set the table so nicely!  Thanks, babe!

Soccer Season

A nice day AT LAST!  It seems like every Saturday it rains or is cold, since that is the day we are outside all day at soccer games.  But this last week, we got a gorgeous day, so we were able to take Michaella with us for a full day of soccer fun.
Benjamin still thinks that this stroller is HIS!

Three Weeks Old

Where does time go???

Teacher Appreciation

Our church's women's ministry made these treats for the homeschool moms to show their appreciation of what we do for our children.  Wasn't that NICE?  We enjoyed the treat.....and felt very apprciated!  THANKS!

Sweet Moments

Grandpa arrived! He holds Michaella for the first time.
Benjamin was NOT happy that Michaella was using HIS stroller. When I placed him in the stroller WITH his sister.....then all was well again. This was our first walk around the neighborhood with Michaella.
Daddy enjoys his girl.
Can she be TWO weeks old already??
Grandma enjoys some snuggling time with Michaella.

Saying Good-Bye

Keith decided to sell his motorcycle last week.....here he is taking each of the boys for a last ride. I will say it was rather sad! We enjoyed it while we had it.

Life with our sweet baby girl

The princesses get to know each other.
Michaella is exactly one week old!
Pretty in PINK
Michaella enjoys her swing.
Michaella in a dress for her first time to church.
Here Michaella is recuperating from her night.......she MUST sleep during the day to gather enough energy to remain awake at NIGHT! The sweet dear literally sleeps all day.....no matter what we do with her, she sleeps right through it.....amazing!

AWANA Fair

The AWANA fair is by far the boys' favorite night of AWANA. Scott shoots at the goal.
Joshua creates a cool painting.
Keith Michael takes a shot.
Marc aims for the swinging tire.

Our First Week with Michaella


Marc enjoying his sister.

We ACTUALLY had TWINS!
A friend of ours makes porcelain dolls. Keith gave me this doll (that she made) when I was expecting Benjamin.
But THIS is our real LIVE china doll!
Scott finished first grade yesterday. Way to go, Scott!
After six days, Benjamin finally decided that he would like to hold his baby sister. This was his first time to hold her.
Last night Michaella was all alone, so Keith Michael went in and started talking to her....very sweet!
Joshua brought Michaella to me this morning when it was time for her to eat.
Michaella's first bath other than in the hospital and sponge baths at home. Thanks for the tub, Amy.....it is perfect!
All cozy and warm after bath time.
Doesn't anyone have CHOCOLATE milk???
