A New Grandma!

Last Sunday the Lord brought a precious new grandma into our lives to love and care for.

Welcome, Grandma Margarete (she goes by Sugar :) 

Junebug loves having another sweet friend to spend time with

Grandma Sugar is a crossword puzzle lover!

These two are always teasing each other and have so much fun!

And of course, Bella is in doggy heaven with all the extra attention she gets

We're so glad the Lord brought you and your sweet family into our lives, Grandma Sugar!

Where did July go? Part 2

We had more fun with Miss Ellie and the S. family

And this li'l goober

Mr. C braved it for another evening with us!

Using new Salad Master pans!

Deep discussions

My study food (just passed another test...yippee!)

Vanessa has been cutting Dad's hair for the past three years...and he only went bald once (jk!)

Grandma Lorry lovin' on little Jonathan at church

Cowgirl school

Junebug hung out with the Bean

Bella Bean loves the smell of shoes : /

And last of all, we celebrated Dad's birthday!

Well, that pretty much sums up July 2012 here! 

August posts are already piling up!

Blessings,

Kaitlin for the rest of us

Where did July go? Part1

Can't believe it's already mid-August, folks! It just seemed like I was wrapping up June, and here I am, scrambling to put together bits and pieces of July... where has the time gone?

Spontaneous visits from friends are always welcome!

Junebug enjoyed seeing Kimberly again

We had a fun 4th of July

Spent lunch out with one of our past doula moms and her handsome little chap

Such a munchkin!

Did lots of reading (the Eensy Weensy Spider, anyone?)

Played ring toss

Johanna had her first dentist visit! Brave girl.

After dinner dessert and games!

It was an intense round of boggle

AND the ladies put a puzzle together!

We re-certified in CPR 

Practicing baby cpr

More puzzles!

We took that adventurous trip to San Antonio!

The Artist

Focused

The Finished Product!

Bella Bean has become the new ring toss pole!

 We had another sweet doula baby born...

...11 days old, this little guy is such a cutie!

And while Vanessa was doulagraphing the labor...

...I was at a friend's house...

...watching nine kids! (Although I was able to be at the birth for the last four hours :D)

Well, that's the first half of July. The next part is on it's way!
