Too many children?


"How can you have too many children? That's like saying there are too
many flowers"

3 months...and rolling!!

Shylie turned 3 months today! I can't believe how quick these months have gone by. She is such a sweetie and we all adore her. She loves to smile and has the best dimples. She rolled over yesterday afternoon for the first time but we didn't catch it on camera. Tonight she did it again and we caught it! Both times we got to excited and our cheering scared her.

Happy 3 month birthday "Smiley" Shylie! (who's not so smiley in this video!)

More Lolly lovin'

We just can't keep Lolly away from Shylie. She just adores her and from Shylie's big dimples as she watches Lolly, I think the feeling is mutual!

God says they're gifts

People look at my children and smile,
"Don't you know where they come from?", they say.
I say, "Yes, they're from heaven,
if there's one or eleven,
I'll receive them, 'cause they're heaven's best.
And if God says they're gifts, then I'm blessed."

Children are gifts from the Lord,
the fruit of the womb's His reward.
Some say that they're trouble,
then I've asked for double.
How could I refuse heaven's best?
'cause if God says they're gifts, then I'm blessed.

If God says He'll meet all our needs,
why is it so hard to believe?
If He sends more than two, He'll provide for them too,
or else He'd not give them to me.
The world may not understand,
but I'd rather be part of God's plan.
It may take lots of faith,
but He gives the grace,
as I place everything in His hands.
By His power, He'll help me to stand.

Though times may have changed,
His Word's still the same.
So in His wisdom and strength I will rest.
'Cause if God says they're gifts, then I'm blessed.
Yes, if God says they're gifts, then I'm blessed.
Either he is Lord of all or not Lord at all!

Girly girl hair do

Poppet and Lolly found some of the girls rollers sitting out on their bathroom counter and decided that they wanted to be "girly girls" and have rollers in their hair.






Poppet ended up wanting hers out but Lolly wanted to leave hers. Here's the end results!


Oh, my!!
