The original plan for Halloween this year was for us to go up to Knoxville for an award that was being given to a friend.  We wanted to be there to congratulate her and a lot of our friends up there haven’t seen Ginny ever and we’ve been wanting to catchup with folks.
That plan got [...]

ginny at 13 months

Ginny at 13 months is….
delightful.
She giggles, she pretends to read (and turns pages really well), she loves to romp and wrestle and dance and clap.  Her new favorite food is cheese toast.  oh wow does this girl like cheese toast.  I think she would live on it if we would let her.
Words so far are [...]

God knows what he is doing.  I have a good story from this weekend in my head, and until it gets committed to paper (or pixels) it will continue to percolate at the front of my mind.  God knows this about me and He knows that I needed to keep those highlights from the weekend [...]

Enjoy this slide show.  I had fun putting it together.  This year has been an amazing journey.
Adoption match, meeting and loving Ginny’s birth parents, birth by C-section, trip home from Kansas, overwhelming baby shower from our church, constant care from friends and family, the month of RSV treatments, first tooth, first solid foods, first words, [...]

hither, thither and yon

Ginny is 10 months old today.
wow.
She has a single tooth coming through her upper gums.  She has waved bye-bye, said  “a-done” when she was done with her lunch one day, and she is starting to really understand hugs as being different from someone just holding her.
Her favorite game is let me hold your hands and [...]

This weekend I get to go to Atlanta Fest.  A Christian Music festival held in a park near my hometown.
Go here if you want to know more.
There’s a great line-up of musicians and speakers.
But I’m not going for that.
It will be a great day out in the sun, praising Jesus through loud music.
While that is [...]

summer fun 2009

technically this doesn’t count as Ginny’s first swimming experience.  It was just a water/playmat thing.  You hook up a hose to it and water sprinkles out in all kind of neat ways that Ginny loved playing with.  It belongs to our neighbor who invited us over to hang out in the yard.
