Better Rest for Elijah

I don’t know how much I’ve blogged about our little man’s sleep issues lately, but let me just say- HE’S BEEN SLEEPING TERRIBLY!!! He has been waking up EARLY (before 5am) and not napping well at all. Not to mention he has been waking up crying at least once a night. Anyway, [...]

A BIG surprise!

La Paz Waterfall Gardens was AWESOME! We saw waterfalls, monkeys, exotic birds, tons of butterflies, rare frogs and a plethora of snakes! It was beautiful! We enjoyed two great meals too! Because it rained, combined with the extra altitude, we were definitely chilly. Still, it was GREAT!
Okay, now for [...]

Going to La Paz

Tomorrow we will be leaving at 6:30am and going to La Paz Waterfall Gardens to see the waterfalls, butterflies, snakes and more.  We are getting in on a trip that another group that is going and it will not cost us as much as normal.  The trip even includes breakfast and lunch.

Kat’s Here!!!

Thanks for praying- Kat got here safely late last night!  She got here and after visiting for a little while (and looking thru Christmas gifts!) we went to sleep at 1:30am.  The boys were up by 5:30am and we have had a BLAST this morning seeing all the gifts that Kat and Jen’s sisters sent.  [...]

Technology helps the Holidays

Yesterday was a wonderful for us to spend together as a family and with some missionary friends.  I was amazed to see how helpful technology was in helping us reconnect with loved ones back home.  Thanks to email and my blog, we were able to communicate with a ton of people yesterday that just a [...]

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Merry Christmas!!! This is the first of at least two “Christmas Posts”.  I know that probably no one other than my family will check my blog today but they are the ones who are probably missing us the most.
MERRY CHRISTMAS FAMILY AND FRIENDS!
The kids are still asleep (it’s 5:30am our time) and I am feeling [...]

Sick again

Well, I’m sick again.  I don’t know what it is but I have a fever, sore throat, etc…  I would appreciate you praying that I get well quickly- I don’t want to be a drag on Christmas.  Also, I’m in charge of leading a Christmas Eve service tomorrow night at chapel.  Oh, remember Jenny too.  [...]

Touching Base

I’m only posting a couple sentences today-  I have a cold and didn’t beat the boys out of bed this morning.  While they gave me the time to read my Bible, posting was not a possibility until nap time.   Our morning has been okay- we’re all a bit tired because Elijah isn’t sleeping too well [...]

The goose is getting Fat

“Christmas is coming, the goose is getting fat!”  Indeed, the figurative duck is getting fat at our house!  In leading up to Christmas, we have finished all our Christmas shopping (other than a bit of shopping that we’re planning to do this afternoon).  The boys gifts are all purchased and we’re both excited about what [...]
