January 31 and February 16, 2012

In a quieter month, I wonder why has it taken me so very long to write and post. I don't have an answer, but I have been enjoying a couple weeks without 'real world' obligations. We've booked a trip to Hawaii in April when Josh has a wedding. What better place to camp than a tropical island? Now if only I can plan our trip so that we stay only at campgrounds with showers... Enjoy and Happy Valentine's!

Tuesday. 12.20.11

It's only been a month...
A busy one at that! But Happy Christmas to all. Can't wait to celebrate with you, and here's a lot of recent happenings and ponderings. 




I forgot to add Simon's perception of the lost little boy. We know he doesn't grasp the fullness and gravity of the situation. Quite frankly, he was excited to see the policemen and their cruisers. But we started talking a long time ago about strangers and leaving home, and the safety of mom and dad. If only we could protect them from all the 'scary.' I know, they will have to experience it for themselves, just as Josh and I did on our own. Thanks, moms and dads, for raising and loving us well, so that we might now have the opportunity to raise our own small beings.

Friday, October 7


 A fall walk on October 1. Got to love a baby bunting!
Boy? Girl? Who's to say?

 You didn't know a four month old could sport pigtails. But Olive defies reality.


In confidence, please keep a mom and dad, Andi and Charles, in your prayers as they mourn the loss of baby Hudson Andrew Lucas, a little one who did not live to see a day outside his mother's womb.

Sunday, September 18

I'm pretty sure these can all fit.

Almost...

Really, they're good. Promise.

September 9, 2011

Sunday morning, rolling!

A simultaneous nap in Mimi's room. See Simon down on the floor?
This is how we spent a small part of labor day. Which I neglected to mention was the anniversary of baby news! We learned about a baby on the way!
