my little singer...

...and the song singing continues.

Z really loves singing. His eyes really light up and it's especially awesome to see God at work in such a young heart. He was singing this while putting together his USA puzzle.

God is a great God. if you just put your HOPE and trust in Him, He will bless the socks off of you. Little Z learned this song once at grammie and g-dad's house and it just stuck. listening to or immersing yourself with God's goodness in all sorts of ways will, no doubt, shine on the inside and out! it's true...there is joy joy joy joy down in my little man's heart!



we love you Z! you bring such joy and HOPE to us!

wow...so this weekend was really great. the weather was great. being with family was great. mini church was great...and training was great!
on saturday, dad and i biked 10 miles and then proceeded to run 1 mile.
on sunday, we decided to go the distance and bike 20 miles.
all i can say is, that evening, i was exhausted! everything about me was tired...so i know it was a good weekend of working out!
this is me...after everything! :)



it was well worth it but training is definitely challenging! i know the end is in sight and i know good is coming from all of this BUT along the way...it does get tough some days! i'm hanging in there...and so is my friend noelle. with God's help, we will finish the race! :)

Mr. Showoff & his sidekick

Z doesn't get to watch a lot of tv so today was a very special day. He chose Dora and when this song came up, I was quick to get my camera because I knew he'd sing right along with her. Boy, am I glad I captured this moment...and little L...he moved right along with the music. Love those boys of mine!

Tubby Time!

I just don't think there is anything cuter than 2 little boys having fun in a bath tub together. Z & L were having a blast splashing and singing and being crazy in the tub. Best part about it? They were having fun together and came out smelling nice and clean!

"Cheese!"

My eldest boy has finally mastered how to smile on cue. He learned how to smile while at preschool and posing for his first ever school class picture. He came home from school and just couldn't stop saying "cheese" so I had to see for myself...



well? what do you think? He's got a great smile, doesn't he?

On the other hand, my youngest boy has no problem giggling or smiling...especially when held by Papa...



case in point.

my boys are true gems from God and smile or not - they are precious in HIS sight and in mine as well!
