Sleepy

So tired....
...Luke fell asleep watching a movie the other day, it was so cute. I didn't realize he was that tired; I looked up and there he was-sound asleep. So asleep, he didn't notice me go get the camera and take a few pics! :D

The Brackets

Aaron's Bracket

Aaron finished in our Group at 2nd Place, and in the entire Yahoo Sports.com at #456,866.

Brittany's Bracket

I finished in our Group at 3rd Place (by the way-Shea finished 1st!), and I ended at #728,290 in the entire Yahoo Sports.com . Okay, not so good there towards the end (where it matters). At the end of the regional finals though, I was ranked #100 in the entire Yahoo Sports.com! That alone was very exciting for me. I had fun. Thanks Exegeters for inviting me!

Chain Quiz

So I wasn't going to do this quiz, tagged or not-but then I got tagged, 3 times! I was tagged by Morgan, Amanda and Heather. THANKS. So instead of finding this annoying, I am choosing to think that at least those three people wondered what I would put as answers to this quiz. Now you all suffer. ;)

Yearn Lyrics

Yearn

by Shane and Shane

~

Holy design

This place in time

That I might seek and find

My God, my God

~

Lord, I want to yearn for You

I want to burn with passion

Over You, and only You

~

Lord, I want to yearn for You

I want to burn with passion

Over You, and only You

Lord, I want to yearn

~

Your joy is mine

Yet why am I fine?

With all my singing and bringing grain

In lights of Him

~

Lord, I want to yearn for You

I want to burn with passion

Over You, and only You

~

Lord, I want to yearn for You

I want to burn with passion

Over You, and only You

~

Oh, You give life and breath

And in You we live and move

That's why i sing

~

Lord, I want to yearn for You

I want to burn with passion

Over You, and only You

~

Lord, I want to yearn for You

I want to burn with passion

Over You, and only You

Lord, I want to yearn

~

Lord, I want to yearn for You

I want to burn with passion

Over You, and only You

~

Lord, I want to yearn for You

I want to burn with passion

Over You, and only You

Lord, I want to yearn

~

(Acts 17:25-28, Hebrews 12:28-29)

Nice.

Recorded, brief moment of genius on my part:
...you see, Luke cannot twist open the door knobs yet, and it would be nice if he could.

So this is my rigging to make that possible.
The door silently closes and opens without that pesky door knob needed to twist!

haha-hope you enjoyed!

Now when you come over to my house you won't need an explanation. :D

Tre, lately

Some recent pics of Tre:
Sitting with his Jenkins' Grandparents' dog, and note the use of the finger:

What a smile!

Ninja/Rambo Boy!!

He looks like he is having fun! Cute kid, that nephew of mine.

Computer savvy

He's a big kid now.

Luke's new table and chairs in his room, which he loves!

Eating his snack:
How it looks in his "Big-boy room"

Note the big boy bed, and table and chairs...he is growing so fast!

At the table

Progressing on with our Big Boy, we have moved out of the high chair as well as the crib! But instead of getting a booster seat, we saw this chair booster and really liked it. Now Luke can sit at the table with us in a big chair, it is a great height. Unless you look down, it isn't noticeable (say for company) and he can't really outgrow it, until he is ready to sit in the chair without it! So its pretty cool. And it is portable. The legs collapse up against each other, it comes with a case, fits on any chair with four legs and literally took 3 minutes to put together. So good product, we have really liked it so far. He can't climb into it, but it does make the chair sturdier. So, good plug by me. :)

And do you see my kid eating like such a big boy?! A place mat, a plate, silverware ("plasticware")! Its great. And when he is finished he says, "All done." and "Thank you." Then he can get down and play. Yeah Luke!
