365 Project; week 13

We have finally this week warmed up into what I think will be Spring (I hope)!  We had a week off of school for Spring Break, celebrated our living Savior, rested somewhat from our normal routine, and had overall a wonderful week, with the exception of my camera deciding now would be a good time to quit working. :(  I will share the photos I have that were taken last Tuesday through Friday, but the rest you'll have to use your imagination for.  This week I need to find a new camera!!


If you "fold" Seth over enough, he can almost sit on his own! 


We discovered K'nex this week!  Noah had gotten a couple of K'nex sets for Christmas, but we just now decided to see what they were all about.  He loves them!


And this just shows that not every moment in our house is a rosy, well-behaved, angelic moment.  It was almost supper time and the K'nex were getting the better of Noah's fine motor skills.  This was a whiney, life's-not-fair, "call the waa-ambulance" moment.  For the record, me taking this photo actually made Noah start laughing, and the "poor me" attitude went out the window when he saw how ridiculous he looked. :)


Jen had her 6week post-baby check-up, and I got the kiddos for the morning.  There are 5 children in this room; can you spot them?


Our neighbor invited us to an egg hunt!  Tons of fun!



Attempting rice cereal for the first time.  Seth is not a fan.  After a couple of times feeding it to him mixed with nothing but my milk, I tried adding a little bit of baby bananas, and that went over MUCH better. :)  Maybe I'll post a video of those first attempts, as they were rather comical. 



And, had my camera not failed me this week, you would have also seen photos of:

1.  Seth finding his toes.  So sweet!
2.  Our family on Easter Sunday.
3.  Our cat, nestled snug as a bug....in my DRYER full of CLEAN CLOTHES.  I was not. A happy. Camper.  (But she did look kind of cute in there, I have to admit)
4.  The latest book I'm reading to Noah, Gulliver's Travels.  Definitely a Boy Book, and one I hadn't read!

The Lord is good!  I hope you had a good week!  Thanks for stopping by to see ours. :)

Ugh! Sorry for the broken camera! Not sure what your price-point is, but I've been really pleased with my Sony DSC-HX9V. (I think you've seen enough samples of the pictures it can take to get a feel for that.) ;)

And we LOVE K-nex around here! And the picture of Noah's Waa-mbulence moment was too funny! :) Yep, we get them, too. Just today, Peter commented about Matthew, "He needs a nap." Yep. That about summed it up. :)

Resolving Everyday Conflict

If you've ever been asked to lead a discussion or teach about a certain spiritual discipline, you can be sure that the Lord will lovingly bring just that exact topic to the forefront in your own life. He'll graciously put your ugly sinful tendencies "right on Front Street," as my good friend Dara likes to say. This is grace! This is God's kindness to reveal sinful tendencies in our own hearts so that we can repent, seek renewed relationship with God and others, and be used of Him. Here is a story about one such evidence of God's grace to me. Josh and I were late to our small group last night. Oh, we were there . We had technically arrived on time, but we remained in the parking lot of the neighborhood's clubhouse for over 45 minutes before we were able to walk in holding hands. Much later in the evening, on our way home from Grace Group, Eden begged to be the one to fill the boys in on why we were late (the boys had driven separately from a soccer practice

The Hand of God

 I am in Scotland. S C O T L A N D. This is me; Joanna, the one whose comfort zone is within about one square mile, who said she never wanted to leave the USA, who hates to travel on anything public, who nearly hyperventilates at the mere mention of airplanes. How is this possible that I am here? Only by God's grace. Every step in front of the other, every long line, every minute on those airplanes was enabled by God's grace. On my end, it wasn't always pretty--usually it was very ugly--and I may have said, "I can't do this" more times than we could count (Josh had to tell me to quit saying that), but God was faithful to me and I have a really great story about one such miracle to share with you, but for perspective and contrast I have to share a really ugly story first. Here goes:  We dropped off our rental car in Dublin about 11am, and had to ride a shuttle bus back to the Dublin airport to catch our 1:10pm "quick" flight over to Edinburgh, Scotlan

The Whole Truth

Our cat, Willow, has kittens periodically. By periodically I mean about 2-3 times a year, and we don't hate it. We actually enjoy guessing when her due date is, how many kittens there will be, what they will look like, etc. Then when she has them, well, is there anything cuter than kittens? But sooner or later, 8 weeks later to be exact, it's time for those kittens to go. At that time we will put an ad on Craigslist and find homes for each and every one. This brings the fun hassle of sending people additional pictures, telling them again how much we are charging (that was in the ad!), setting up potential meetings with people who will ghost at the last minute, after we've already given them our address. Everyone should put an ad on Craigslist at least once just for the experience. Should you finally get someone who likes the look of a kitten, wants to pay the price, can meet at an agreeable time, successfully finds your house, is okay with the fact that the kittens haven&#
