Zoe's 1st Birthday!

Am I making up for my recent lack of posts?

Babylegs!
This doesn't really show off her mad walking skills, but she is quite the pro now!

"I'm not a talker..." Give me a shout out via a comment if you are viewer and would like to see more regular updates. I love to post pictures and I would like to do some actual blogging to share with you what's new in our day to day. I know that I quite easily run the risk of becoming a mommy-blogger (oversharing poop stories, food tramas, sleeping issues, referring to myself as mommy...you get the idea). Anyway, stay tuned for some actual blogging.

What we've been up to in 2008...so far.

Wow--is that actually a picture of me? on my [Zoe-filled]camera?

This was New Year's Eve...we celebrated at a friend's house among many friends. We look forward to what 2008 will bring! We are so blessed!

We went to the Zoo with Trisha (& Soren and Addy). Zoe was only 4 months old last time we went--she enjoyed it a lot more this time (Hint, hint Zoo membership makes a great Birthday gift...ha)

ZZZ... We had to wake Zoe up at 8:00 Christmas morning!'m sure that there will soon come a day where we are lucky to get to sleep 'til 7!

Finally a posting!!

Here's a picture of the fam at our Christmas Eve service at which Paul had the opportunity to preach. He did a great job--God has really gifted Paul in sharing the Word. Did I mention that he is going to China this summer--For 3 Weeks! Please pray for the preparation for his journey.

We were truly blessed to share Christmas with lots of family! Paul's parents, My mom and Bill, and grandma arrived on Christmas Eve. We enjoyed several days with a housefull!
