Seven Months Already?

Boy, I have been lacking in the blog department recently. I wanted to add this picture of Nathan. He is 7 months old today. Where does the time go? If you can read the small orange print on the picture.....I sent this in for a baby who has been hospitalized for over a month. He has been critically ill and he has more challenges to meet. There have been many ups and downs for little Stellan. I sent the picture in for "Wear Orange for Stellan Day". If you are interested, you can learn about baby Stellan's difficulties at: http://www.mycharmingkids.net

This family's situation has really tugged at my heart strings. The Mom is a great blogger and the family is beautiful. They have faced many struggles with their youngest baby. Stellan reminds Katie and I of Nathan. I have found Stellan to be on my mind often and I have been in fervent prayer for this family.

We have been so blessed to have such healthy and happy grandchildren.

We LOVE each one of you......
Gillan, Gracie, Joshua, Andrew, Nathan

Happy "7th month" Day Nathan!- April 25, 2009

Happy Easter!

We anticipated today's Easter Sunday weather and jumped into coloring and hiding Easter eggs on Saturday.
Below are a couple of pictures of Josh taken by his Mom several days ago.

Nathan was really kicked back here.

The boys were seriously in to coloring "real" eggs.
As you can see the eggs did not all take the color well.
I boiled the eggs early in the morning and put them in the refrigerator...mistake.....
it has been so many years since I colored eggs.....you know, we now have those wonderful plastic ones....anyway, I didn't remember that the eggs needed to be warm. Oh well, it was the experience and making memories that counted.
