First Women's Ministry Event

We called it "Where Our Hearts Are" to go along with the name of our women's ministry, "Sisters in Heart."  We each brought a dish that reminded us of those we love, so we had lots of starches. (Only one person brought a green vegetable.)  There were also a few cheesy games with even cheesier prizes involved, but no one complained.  I did a devotion on Matthew 6:19-21 about storing up treasure in heaven, which raised a lot of questions about the practical application of the passage.  The fellowship was encouraging, and we hope to get a group together to plan a few more activities.   

Caleigh Being Caleigh

She has decided to act like a baby, crawling and carrying a pacifier, which she never used, after seeing the babies in the nursery at church.  Who knows what she'll do when Brother Bear gets here.

Isn't she pitiful.  She busted (burst) her lip twice in one week.

Again, she has the pacifier and is ready to take it to church.

Week 30

I don't want to gross anyone out, but here I am as big as I was the day I had Caleigh with 10 weeks still to go.  The doctor said my belly is out of room, so I'm not sure where Barrett will go now.  I'm hoping he will come a little early.  I'm already to the point that I can't bend over or sleep, and I can barely pick Caleigh up.

The Full Bath

We have finally moved -- after much waiting to find a house -- praise the Lord.  We spent one week painting, a day moving, and a week organizing.  Then, we did a little decorating, which we still haven't finished.  Now, we have to paint Caleigh and Barrett's room, the 1/2 bath, and the full bath's cabinets.  Right now, we are loving being in our very own house.  It is nice to know I'm cleaning my own dirt and not thirty years of someone else's.  These pictures show the post-organization, pre-decorating phase of the move.
