A day at the mall...



A day at the mall turned into a photo session at The Picture People.

Continuous motion...


This girl is constantly doing something. Whichever room we go in, she brings ALL her toys. For example, as I was checking email this morning, she brought all her toys from the living room, one by one, into the doorway of the office. Sara is in continuous motion!

All settled in our new home!






Life has really been busy. In consistent weeks I've had final exams and papers, graduation, our move to Wake Forest, and Vacation Bible School at church, and in the midst of it all, several people in the hospital and one funeral! Wow, but God gives me strength and through various trials, He is refining me and preparing us for great things ahead. Sara is exploring and loving her new home. She has more room to play and there are always kids outside to play with. Ingrid is beginning to get some baby fat and is really growing. She has her one month doctor visit coming up at our new pediatrician in Wake Forest and we are excited about getting to develop a relationship with them. And Giovanna is just awesome! She goes from one child to the next, taking care of all of our needs. She really is a gift from God. We love our new apartment, our new neighbors, and our new home town, but most of all, we love King Jesus and are excited about the opportunities and challenges that are before us as we seek to serve and glorify Him!

My college graduation!!





My graduation from Bible College was a wonderful experience. It is nice to have that stage behind me so I can move on and focus on the next chapter, completing my Master's Degree. This was a wonderful day spent in celebration with my family and also some people from church. Glory to God!!

Sara loves her sister!

Time for cloth diapers



The last week of April I started Sara wearing cloth diapers. Andrea, the lady who took our pictures recommend me this brand BumGenius cloth diapers. They are supposed to last me two years, I will see. They are one size that you can adjust according to the baby size and comes with inserts. They are working good for me so far. I am saving money on disposable diapers. I decided to do this since my second baby is coming and I couldn't imagine to spend double money in disposable diapers. They come in different colors and if you are interested you can find their website at http://www.bumgenius.com/

Amazing Grace





This past week, Tuesday March 18 to be exact, God blessed our family with the wonderful opportunity to be photographed by one of His very gifted servants, Andrea Wood. Giovanna met her at a ministers wives retreat this past October. Andrea has an amazing eye for capturing the heart and soul in her photographs. Sara was so beautiful in her dress her Grandma Carter bought her and Giovanna just got her braces off and her beautiful smile brightened up every scene. Here are a few samples!
