An update

Pops and Honey had all of our pictures taken a few weeks ago.  The photographer, Maleigh Cannon, is great.  She lives in the cutest barn house that they built.  It is gorgeous and she has such a gift for decorating.  I wish I could put pictures here but I don't have permission.  So just imagine metal ceilings and wood plank ceilings and sliding barn doors.  Ahhh.

Drew and Charis turned three yesterday!  I don't have any more babies:(.  Do you want to hear the saddest thing ever?  My son has decided this week to give up his nap.  AHHHH.  I am so sad!!  I love nap time.  It is sacred.  But he takes a coon's age to go to sleep at night and the same amount of time to finally fall asleep for a nap.  I am teaching him to rest in his room for an hour and with prayers I hope he catches on quickly.  Charis still naps which is great but it is easier to have them on the same schedule.  

At three years old the kids are really funny and into lots of stuff.  Charis LOVES her babies.  She dresses, feeds, changes, and loves them all day.  Drew loves Buzz Lightyear and Cars, neither which has he seen, but he is a marketer's dream and wants every item with those pictures on it.  He also into tools.  Drew has been potty trained for a while and does great.  Charis is fully capable but completely unwilling.  She stays clean and dry at home but asks for a diaper when she needs to go and throws a fit when I try to persuade her to the toilet.  I have tried lots of incentives but nothing strikes her fancy.  I am not worried about it.  She is fine and I trust she will go when she is ready.  

In other exciting news besides our babies' birthday and Jesus' birthday this week Stephen and I will be celebrating 10 years of marriage!  Also exciting is that Pops and Honey will traveling to Israel this week!  Please pray for their safe travel and a wonderful experience.  That trip is on my bucket list.  I can't wait to hear about it.
