Andrew is quickly learning that he can pull himself up and stand next to just about anything.

Learning Folk Songs

Adrie has been learning songs at preschool the past couple weeks. Today, when she was playing with some of her dolls, I heard her saying, (with an exasperated tone) "All the live-long day, girls."

. . . and making a fast break for the front door.

Andrew had his 6-month check up yesterday. (yes, I'm a little behind) He weighs 19 lbs 12 oz, and is 27 1/2 inches long. Both being 50-75%. And of course, he sca-reeeeeeeeamed when he got his 3 shots.

Adding Insult to Injury

Andy has a little scratch on his nose that he won't leave alone. I wanted to cover it up, but unfortunately, these were the only bandaids I had in the cupboard. Would someone please get the boy some spiderman bandaids?

First Day of Pre-School

Adrie LOVED her first day of pre-school! She gave me a kiss goodbye, and never looked back.

So I went to the mall and bought myself a new outfit! :)

Adrie's First Garage Sale

Here's a picture of Adrie's first garage sale "find."
She paid 10 cents for it . . . quite a steal!

Adrie: "Mom . . . you know my friend Jacob?"
Me: "No . . . I don't remember him."
Adrie: "I mean my friend Jacob . . . from South Ork."
Me: "Oh."
Adrie: "Yep, and I think I'll move to South Ork too."

Proverbs 18:10

The name of the LORD is a strong tower;
the righteous run to it and are safe.

We had a great time on our final vacation of the summer. We went to Yakima for the opening of Dove hunting season, but mostly we sat around the pool in the sun.

Adrie (walking down the hallway of our hotel): "Mommy, do you know what I'm good at?"

Mommy: "What are you good at?"

Adrie: "Sticking my finger in my nose and getting all the boogers out."
