April Hope is 10 months

On the 25th, April turned 10 months old! Only 2 more months until her first birthday!!


Last week, she learned to crawl and hasn't stayed in the same place since :) Sometimes she gets a little lazy (usually when she's on the wood floor upstairs) and chooses to just slide her knees around instead of picking them up to crawl, but it doesn't slow her down too much! She pulls up on things and likes to "walk" with the help of Mom or Dad!


She has switched over to having formula (except in the morning when she still nurses with me) and has had no problem changing over to bottles - there is no denying that she loves them! We go next week to the doctors for her weight check and I'm sure there will be improvement!! She favors fruits to vegetables and has started eating more solids this month. She likes cheese, grapes, bananas, bread/cheerios...but she'll spit out peas and corn....going to have to work on this!


April continues to be a happy happy baby - bringing others around her joy. She dances to any kind of music or beat by rocking back and forth while sitting. She will play with most anything and is starting to like to look at books (instead of just trying to eat them!)


Strangers in the store will comment on how beautiful April's eyes are ~ still as blue as can be :) Her hair seems to be coming in a little bit too so maybe we'll have enough for a big bow on her birthday ;)

We love you April and are happy to watch you become a little girl! Looking forward to the months ahead! :)

A dear friend

I'm leading the study tomorrow at my Bible Study. We're reading a book called Crazy Love by Francis Chan and the chapter I'm in 'charge of' of real life examples of people who are living completely for Christ. I've come up with an example from my own life to talk about and I thought I'd let my blog readers in on what I'm going to share tomorrow. Enjoy! I met Mrs. Hohman on a hot July afternoon after mistakenly knocking on her neighbor’s door. I stood on her front porch with my mom, nervously waiting to meet the woman I planned on living with for my first year at Grove City . I felt like I was towering over her short frame as she showed me the 3 rd floor and barked the rules of “no swearing, no smoking, no boys”. I handed over my rent check and moved to her house in late August. September came and a fellow freshman had a mental breakdown and her bed was now available to me…… So, after 3 weeks of living with Mrs. Hohman I moved out....

More Bloopers

These pictures just make me laugh ~ especially the last two. I have a feeling that Aunt Laura, in particular, will think those last two are funny also. :)
