Kristin's new house

our friends, the Waterman's, gave us this cute little house for kristin. she loves to play in it out on the porch.

she is talking quite a bit these days. she has added many words and partial sentences to her vocabulary. although, at almost 2, her favorite word is "NO!"

and, drum roll please... she peed in the potty for the first time a week ago. she hasn't done it since, but it won't be long!!!!

halloween #2

this year, kristin was a care bear! ha! ha! she was NOT in the mood for it.

kristin's first time trick-or-treating. we have a great neighborhood with extremely friendly neighbors.

kristin wasn't too happy about this bear costume! Happy Halloween!

Hello from the USA!

well, we made it to the usa!!! we are very sorry that we haven't been able to blog until now. our computer was broken in the pcs. also, i have no idea why my words are being underlined, but it's very annoying!
anyway... we really miss our friends back in oki. this has been a difficult pcs for us, but we are certain that God is going to use us where we are.

kristin has adjusted well. we have a great house that is big enough for her to run around in. she and i spend lots of time here and we are only too happy when daddy comes home from work.

we think we've found a church. you might have heard of max lucado. we have been going to the saturday night service at his church. they have a great children's program, and since it's on saturday, jonathan and i can worship together.

God has really been teaching me to "cast all my cares on Him." i'm not sure that the lesson is over yet, but i do know that He is a loving teacher.

we'll keep you all posted on what's going on in our lives. i'll blog more once we get our computer up and running again. until then, please email me and l
