Naomi standing in her walk-behind, sportin her new smile


Favorite time of the day, meal time!!!!

Say Cheese!!!!

We are having so much fun these days!! Christmas was fun, extra days off from work was fun (having Joel home) and watching Naomi and Nate play together and laugh together has been a blast!! She has really started to show her sweet, fun-loving personality. As you can see from the pictures, she's a real ham - and fits right into our family!!

Nate has adjusted quickly to his new big brother role. There are times when he would want more attention (like when he says "mom, you aren't giving me any attention, you are giving it all to Na Na) - rest assured, he is getting lots of great attention. He has started rock wall climbing and is loving it! He has been about 5-6 times now and asks to go almost everyday. Hard to believe he will be 5 soon!

Naomi is just about to take her first few steps. She stands on her own and has that look on her face of determination. I have the cameras ready and hope to capture them if at all possible. Joel and I are so thankful we get to see her first steps, a milestone we thought we had missed.

We are scheduled in February for another echocardiogram (I am sure I am botching the spelling of this word, which is why Joel won at Scrabble the other night - I can't spell). The plan at this point is to proceed with the heart procedure in March. More to come as we know more.

I (Lee-Anne)Wanted to share a few resolutions (or challenges as I like to refer to them as):

1. More time with the Lord, less time on the computer (last year was less TV - which was replaced this year by the computer)
2. More quality time with Joel and the kids, making dinnertime and the few hours that follows important and worthwhile and fun
3. Spend (which means shop) less - significantly less.
4. Save more.
5. Focus on circle of friends and family around me - seeking ways to minister to them in the everyday.

Happy New Year! May the Lord bless you and your family.

You spelled echocardiogram correctly. If you hadn't that little red line would have come under it, that is why my blog is filled with words that are spelled correctly, but may not be the write (right) meaning. Cute pics.
