Old Age..

SOOOO..nevermind that whole moving thing..it'll be about another year before that can happen..just not God's timing right now.

This is going to be a short entry..just long enough to let everyone know that The Brown's have officially gotten old. We go to bed by 9:30 on Friday and Saturday nights, and were up by 7am this morning playing with blocks on the floor..which was awesome by the way. Then, because of Lili's ear infection and the crazy winds outside, we moved the family walk to the mall tonight. Wow..we're old.

But..the most exciting thing that happened today..LILI BLEW KISSES!!

More tomorrow and an update on Eric's half-marathon..

Movin' on up..

We've decided that it is time for our family to move to a new home. Eric and I purchased our house almost 3 years ago, knowing that this would not be our forever home. We knew that this house was to be our start, and for just the two of us (and the dogs), it's been wonderful, and we brought our first child home to this little house. We've decided that it's time for us to think of baby girl, and to find the home that she'll grow up in. I want a neighborhood where we can walk down the street and play at the park, where we can spend hours drawing on the front sidewalk with chalk, where I can feel safe knowing that my little girl is playing with her friends outside..and so the search begins. In the next couple of weeks, things will get very busy as we prepare our house to go on the market so that it can provide a new family with their start..

We'll keep you all posted!

Monday Memories

There's not a whole lot of new news in the Brown household. Eric's almost completely over the illness of last week, but it seems like mine is just beginning. I'll get through it, I just pray that little Miss Lili will remain as happy, healthy, and unaffected as she has to this point.

I thought that for this Monday I would share a "Monday Memory". This is one of the first photos taken of Lili and I in the hospital. That day was such a blessing in our family's lives. Lili brings so much joy to everyone that she meets. I hope that this post finds all of my readers well (both of you!).

What a Week...

I haven't had much time this week to post about what's going on in our lives because Eric's been super sick. He came down with the flu and strep throat simultaneously. It's been a week filled with temperature taking, ramen noodle cooking, medicine giving, and diaper changing. He even missed 3 and a half days of work with this stuff--you know it was bad!! Sadly, I'm afraid that I'm getting it now.

In other big news, my big girl took to her sippy cup full time this week!! I'll try to post a pic of her and her sippy later. She also cut her first molars without even making Mommy suspect teething. I found them by accident. What a good girl!!
