Prayer Request

So far this school year, our schedules with my teaching job and JJ's, and the kids has worked out very well. James goes with me to school, and Randi stays home with Daddy. JJ has just moved back up to part time management with Jasper's, and will probably need to free up his schedule entirely so he can move to full time management in the next couple of months. We have struggled with this, because the cost for Randi to go to child care, even part time, is almost as much as I bring home in a month. Child care in The Woodlands at a decent facility for infants/toddlers is insane! Think mortgage payment here!

A couple weeks ago, JJ found a business card on the windshield of his car for a lady that takes care of kids in her apartment. The kids and I walked over today to 'interview' her. So far, so good. I could not have been happier! James & Randi were very comfortable and started playing with her son right away. Her apartment was spotless, she only had 3 children in her care today, and she is only 2 buildings over from ours, which means I can just walk Randi over before we leave for school. The best part is, she is CHEAP, and takes payment by the hour. So, we would not have to pay for hours that we did not use, and we could take Randi only when we needed to. We would also have the benefit of being able to drop in and check on her unannounced whenever we wanted.

JJ is going to walk over Monday morning and meet her too before we make a decision. I have a very good feeling about this, but I am still requesting that you keep us in your prayers. This has so many benefits for us if this works out!

Wedding....In No Particular Order!


The Bridesmaids


Bored at rehearsal


Passed out from pure exhaustion



These photos are always my favorite! Such a proud Daddy!





James danced ALL NIGHT LONG! He stopped only to potty twice and to eat cake! He danced until the last song played!

Wedding Photos


This is as good as they get! She cried pretty much the entire night because of her ear infection. We changed her clothes right after this photo so she could be more comfortable, it did not help the situation at all!



James just had to see what was upstairs

Our little stud danced with every lady in the house! Even women he did not know!

A photo with Randi not crying! It's a miracle!




We wanted that microphone so bad during the toasts! Instead he just crawled around on the floor!

God Made Everything


Who put the hop in the kangaroo?!
Who put the 'oink' in the pig it's true?!
Who made the cows go moo moo moo?!
God made everything!

We sing this song during Chapel at school, and it is definitely James' favorite. He had been singing it all day long, but when I got out the camera, he would not do it unless I sang it with him. Sorry for the horrible voice!!!

Helping Randi Walk


Mimi visited this week and brought Randi this Pooh Bear car from her house so she could have something to practice walking with. James found a way for both of them to enjoy it together. And of course, Randi loves the attention from her big brother.
