Little Baby Gumby

Growing up, I loved Gumby and I guess never outgrew it because I find myself sitting around and laughing at the poses that Mikail can do. Here are just a couple.



Look familiar? Karate Kid- you can't really see it but her leg is bent forward too


I'm sure we'll see this pose later on when she really wants something.

Stay posted because we will have her Easter pics up soon!


Question and Answer Time

Being a first time parent has me constantly analyzing how my life has changed over the past 2 months. And with all this "newness" has come LOTS of questions. So my first question is how does a husband/wife continue to keep their spouse of greater priority once a child arrives. I am now having to eat my own words of "God #1, Spouse #2, then kids #3"-which I still fully embrace but realize that those words now get to take action. So for those of you interested in answering/sharing, I am looking for tangible day to day ideas (creative or not creative) on how to do so.

We do have one game that we play that I'll share and am excited to hear about other suggestions as well.

Ours is "tag." We have a small piece of beech wood that Dave wrote "You're It!" on and we take turns "tagging" each other. When you are "it," it is your job to hide it in a place that the other person will find. (Shoes, Cereal box, microwave...etc.) This is just a small way that we get to let the other person know that we are thinking about them.
