AFTER

Surprise! Oops my camera cord is broken and I can not download anything right now, I know I got all of really excited for this after picture. Sorry. I am now finishing my reading my awesome chapter of shalom filled relationships for my bible study tonight. This is the most wonderful book, I am enjoying the read and the ladies in the group. God is gracious. Someone in the group with wisdom said "We are so fortunate to be reading this book now in our "younger years" I do feel that God has reavealed this to me and thankful to him in his mercy and grace he bestows on me each and every day. I am that Wretch, that the Hymn refers to, and so was our kitchen before we fixed it up. HA

Kruddy Kitchen

Here is a pic of our kitchen when we first moved in it took two gallons of "krud Kutter" to get through the grime! I know this is nasty, however, all has been sanitized and this is now a safe place to consume food and beverage!

My Son shine


It Fits!

Ellie is wearing a hand me down from baby Elijah and baby Noah, and it fits Great! GO CARDS! Dewey from Malcom in the Middle believes that there should be hand me ups. And I think maybe John Clubb may feel that way too someday.

A Modest Moment or not

We are starting to train Noah to use the big potty. However he did want to remain modest in this picture and is giving me a look like Mommy, what are you doing-get out of here!

Todays Toddlers

During our day, through the tears, and the toddler fits, and the teaching, and Elijah saying "Mommy take a deep breath". We still have fun, loving, cuddly moments. These boys truly love another, and it is my fervent prayer that they will continue to do so forever. (That is toothpaste all over Noah's mouth, I used a scare tactic and showed the boys a picture of rotten teeth online and now they love to brush their teeth)

Spiderman


Here is Ellie on the Spiderman chair. This is the coolest seat in our house. It's where Elijah and Noah like to sit the most. Ellie was trying it out too. However, they don't always end up sitting in this chair, they have to sit in another chair quite often -but only for a couple of minutes. Ha!
