Thomas is anxiously waiting for Talia to crawl. Sometimes he even tries to help her while she is on her tummy time.
The second video always makes my heart stop. No one was hurt in the filming of it. Watch at your own risk. We have enjoyed this month. SO much to look forward to and lots of things happening. We are quickly getting ready for summer and there is no slowing down! These pictures were taken when we got back from Chicago up until last night. Sorry no caption. Leave a comment and I will get back to you. Enjoy my cutie pies. They are growing too fast.
We are finally here! Packing was horrible, and so was unpacking, but we are finally here and praising God. The day we arrived Thomas had a fever! What a welcome. Then he developed an ear infection. On top of all that he got two of his last four molars in. Boy was it hard transition because the rest of the family got sick as well. Poor Thomas didn't want to stay in our new home, but he didn't know where to go. He just kept saying, "go, go, go."
He is tons better now. He loves that he has a gym to play in and an auditorium. Life is good for him now. While we were at the middle school basket ball tournament earlier tonight, he made a bunch of new friends. Last Sunday he went to children's church all by himself. I am so thankful he is feeling better. Talia is growing and happy and loving life. Everyone here in UNK has taken good care of us. I am so thankful for everyone who helped us out, cleaned our apartment, brought us our stuff from the hanger, sent us food, brought us food, made us food. God is good! We are getting ready to move once again. Our house is maybe 60% packed already. I am getting excited to move. It will be a bittersweet move. We will be leaving soem great friends but moving to the bush is always where our hearts are.
Besides moving, I have been enjoying every second with my little ones. They sure keep me busy. Talia is just learning to smile when she sees us. I am sure that she will be giggling real soon. She just had her 2 month check up and she weighs in at 13 lb 8 ounces. She is alot heavier than Thomas at this age. Thomas' vocabulary is increasing everyday. His favorite words are uh-oh, oh-no, go, no, mom, Tigger, woo-hoo, who-who (for train), dog, kiika (which means more in Inupiaq). He is very sweet and feel in love with Talia early on. The first time he held her he pulled down on her little ears and started making monkey noises. Yesterday I caught him trying to hold Talia without adult supervision. Good thing I was just in the kitchen watching him. He is also a super helpful big brother. Since fall I have joined a mother's group at our local church. We get together every other Wednesday and have fellowship with our little kids and we are also reading The Mission of Motherhood together. I am also in a ladies Bible study. We are studying prayer together. I have been blessed by both. |
