Finally Some Pictures

 

 

 

 

So far everyone is doing great.  Lucy has been such a sweet addition to our family.  The kids love to hold her.  Kayla, especially.   She is sure that Lucy only likes to hold her finger.  Heard around the house the past week:

Sam:  "I a big brother now Mommy."

Kayla:  "I hope Lucy always has God's spirit in her heart."

Jack:  "Mommy, I thought when you came home from the hospital it wouldn't look like you still have a baby in your tummy."

Sam:  "I like Lucy, Mommy, I do!"

Lucy

"It is not a slight thing when they who are so fresh from God, love us."

Charles Dickens

Snow!

I heard one set of little feet hit the floor this morning.  Quiet.  Then, I hear them running to the next room.  Now two sets of little feet running down the stairs.  "Mom!  It's snowing!  Look!  Have you seen it???"  It did not take long before they finished their breakfast and were outside enjoying the beautifull snowfall.  Seems like a great day for curling up with a good book near the Christmas tree!

Still Waiting

The Christmas Parade in downtown Blacksburg was tonight.  Lots of fun, lots of firetrucks, and lots of candy!  Not as cold as last year. Waiting for snow tomorrow- the kids are so excited.  Me too!  Still waiting for baby...I think it would be good to make it through this weekend.  The church Christmas program is Sunday night.  Kayla is an angel and Jack is a wise man.  I would hate to miss it!  Will definitely post pictures of that!
