some nuggets from maggie

nugget #1
a while ago i taught maggie that "baptize" means "to dip."  (thank you dr. bell=) she didn't say much more about it until the other day.  she explained to me that sometimes she "baptizes" her cheese toastie when she dips it in her ketchup.  i guess that means she got it?
nugget #2
i don't usually compliment maggie on her appearance but today when i was cutting her hair i couldn't help but tell her that i think she is so cute.  this lead to a discussion about prov. 31:30 which she has memorized and i asked her what is more important than beauty. to this she replied "being praised!" 
i have some more work to do here.

the bunnies

this is what i found when i walked in to the girls' room the other day. the girls were playing somewhere else in the house. i guess bunnies need some rest time, too!

quick visit from our resident photographers

Yusdi and Jessica were in our neck of the woods recently and came for our sunday morning service and lunch (abbie's incredible chicken enchiladas and fresh salsa!)  jessica has posted a few of her fabulous photos on her blog.  enjoy!

just for fun!

encouragement

this was very encouraging to me.

a new look

well, i finally made some changes on the blog.  "baby on board" was mostly created to keep our friends and family updated while we traveled on deputation.  now that we are here, i wanted a title that captured a little more than that.  and a blog that communicated a little more than cute photos of the kids.  so here it is.

S is for Snowman!

last friday was "S" day and so we watched "The Snowman" (which i had never seen until coming here) and made banana snowmen. i think this was our best craft yet-mostly because we could eat it-also because our new friend joan was there.
