Peas & Carrots, and Veggie Burger YUM

Hi y'all!
Lillian is starting to use silverware and the other night I gave her a little fork for the first time.
As you can see, she spends most of her meals signing "eat" and "all done" and moving different handfuls of supper into the little sections on her tray.

Really love them.

Romans 12:9-21 (New Living Translation)
9 Don’t just pretend to love others. Really love them. Hate what is wrong. Hold tightly to what is good. 10 Love each other with genuine affection, and take delight in honoring each other.

11 Never be lazy, but work hard and serve the Lord enthusiastically. 12 Rejoice in our confident hope. Be patient in trouble, and keep on praying. 13 When God’s people are in need, be ready to help them. Always be eager to practice hospitality.

14 Bless those who persecute you. Don’t curse them; pray that God will bless them. 15 Be happy with those who are happy, and weep with those who weep. 16 Live in harmony with each other. Don’t be too proud to enjoy the company of ordinary people. And don’t think you know it all!

17 Never pay back evil with more evil. Do things in such a way that everyone can see you are honorable. 18 Do all that you can to live in peace with everyone.

19 Dear friends, never take revenge. Leave that to the righteous anger of God. For the Scriptures say,
“I will take revenge;
I will pay them back,”
says the Lord.

20 Instead, “If your enemies are hungry, feed them.
If they are thirsty, give them something to drink.
In doing this, you will heap
burning coals of shame on their heads.”

21 Don’t let evil conquer you, but conquer evil by doing good.

Let me not wander...

Psalm 119: 9-16
How can a young man keep his way pure?
By guarding it according to your word.
With my whole heart I seek you;
let me not wander from your commandments!
I have stored up your word in my heart,
that I might not sin against you.
Blessed are you, O LORD;
teach me your statutes!
With my lips I declare
all the rules of your mouth.
In the way of your testimonies I delight
as much as in all riches.
I will meditate on your precepts
and fix my eyes on your ways.
I will delight in your statutes;
I will not forget your word.

Snow, snow, snow











This morning Lew guesstimated that we got about 10"! As you can see, everything's buried and you can't even tell there's a lake out back. Look at the snow on the seat cushion by the garage door! You can tell Lillian enjoys the snow about as much as her mama does. ;) And she's much happier indoors having a snack.

Practice Makes Perfect

Lillian is learning how to eat with a spoon; as you can see, it'll be a while before we have this skill perfected.

Lillian is WALKING

The play room is a mess since the painter just finished, so please disregard the background. ;)
