Oldies

If you are anything like me, you have tons of old pictures that are fun to look at but then what do you do with them? Well, I've finally figured it out. You put them on your blog. So here goes. Here are just a few old pictures that are just sitting on our computer waiting to get their 15 minutes of fame. So enjoy. And congrats to you if you made the cut.

















Nothing like remembering the good times. Still have a ton more but I'll save them for another day.
Enjoy.

Where does the time go?

How did my baby Finn go from this:





to this:



Finn will be 8 months in a week and I am dying. He is getting so old and I cannot believe how fast time really goes by. Finn is such a jolly baby and is so quick to smile. He loves sitting up and is ready to crawl; just has to figure out how to make that happen. He loves to eat any kind of food and dives for anything edible anyone offers him. He can wave and do patty cake, which makes him seem like such a little human. He loves his big brother and gets so excited when Gus pays any attention to him. Finn is such a sweet little boy and I don't know if I'm ready for him to get any older. Can't he just stay 8 months forever??

Words....

Gus and I were playing the piano Sunday night. I was playing songs from the primary children song book and we were talking about them and picking different ones to sing. Gus always wanted to sing "once there was a snowman" (a favorite in nursery) and I would try to sing any other one, but usually ended back up singing about that crazy snowman and melting small, small, small. I did however manage to sneak "I am a child of God" in there and there was no protest from Gus. I started playing the music and Gus started singing his little heart out which about melted mine. I sat there listening to him sing those sweet words and couldn't help but tear up. It was so amazing and uplifting to hear my two year old child say the words that we all know are so true but so easily forget. I am a child of god, and he has sent me here. Thanks Gus for reminding me of who I am.
