So much has been going on with us lately. This week was drama week at Prospect, and Aaron played the role of Jesus again. He did a wonderful job, and I'm always so proud of him and the job he does in this role each year. This is one of my favorite pictures of Aaron from the drama. If you'd like to see some pictures of the drama you can check here.
Today Beth headed to THAILAND! I am so proud of her and the sacrifice she is making to serve others in this world who need to see Jesus in others. I know she is super excited about what all God is going to do during her stay. While she is there she will be celebrating Christmas with all the girls and delivering their Christmas boxes from their sponsor families. Please be in prayer for her as she ministers at the House of Grace over the next 12 days.
P.S. Isn't she AMAZING?
And I almost forgot, but Levi is now 18 months old! I can't believe it! He is growing up SO fast. He has his 18 month appointment next week, so I'll post his stats and such then, but for now here is what he is up to...
- He is talking so much these days. He says: papa, mama, ball, basketball, dodger, baby, Jesus, uh oh, juice, set, go, two, three, and a few more. Some he says more than others. He also understands tons more words like waffle, help, milk, and simple commands, but hasn't said them yet.
- He knows his ears, nose, fingers, bellybutton, toes, mouth, and eyes (sometimes).
- He's pooped in the potty once. He's just starting the training, but we are so proud of him anyway.
- He smiles really big when you say "Cheese."
- He loves balloons, cars, VeggieTales, Christmas lights (thanks Ky for your yard), his doggie, and sticks.
- He eats most anything - and sometimes eats me out of house and home.
- He still signs 'please' and 'all done,' but hasn't used any other signs on a continuous basis.
- He is very friendly and always waves hi and bye to everyone we meet.
- He is a ham! He loves being the center of attention and laughing.
- He loves playing. He will play by himself, but loves when other play with him especially if they chase him.
- He has his first ear infection last week, but is doing much better.
- He has 16 teeth!! His i-teeth are finishing coming in, and that gives him 16 total. He is a champ at teething and hardly ever complains.
- He loves to throw things - sometimes good and bad - and he has a real strong arm.
- He loves outside and would spend all day out there if I would let him.
- He hates the car and would rather play than ride.
- He loves to read - anything. His favorite books right now are Here Come the Firefighters, Jane's Flying Expedition (both are pop-up books), and anything Dr. Seuss.
