"Blob-site"?!?

I was showing Isaac how to navigate on the Internet through what I have tabbed as "my favorites". He read down the list and found all his aunties' sites and some of the teachers' sites. Then, he came across this site and shouted out, "Alice's blog!" I was feeling quite computer savvy in explaining to him that I now have a blog site and how I have posted different things on it, until I heard Abby snickering near by. I promptly paused my explanation to Isaac and asked Abby what was so funny. She said, "Mommy, I just think it's funny that you call your computer a BLOB..."

Hmmm, how do you talk yourself out of that one???

Happy Birthday, Princess!

Four years ago, you came into our lives and changed every rule in the book! When the ultrasound technician told me that you are a girl, I was convinced that she was wrong. "I don't make girls," I told her. I'm so thankful that she was right! So thankful that I didn't have to put the "just in case" blue outfit that I packed for you to take you home in :) Your daddy prayed for a girly girl... and you are the definition of that, plus more! Abby, we are so thankful that God loaned you to us to be a part of our family! I love that you come and snuggle with me in bed in the morning. I love hearing your little girly voice and your endless questions each day. I love that you sing with your whole heart and wiggle your little hips all around (only for now!). I love your big hugs-with-legs and all the butterfly kisses and Eskimo kisses. You are such a special joy to us, our precious little daughter. I pray that you will grow to love God at an early age and serve Him with all your being. I pray that one day (a long time from now), God will bring into your life a Godly man that will love you as much as we love you!

Happy 4 year old birthday, Abigail!
We love you!!!

All I want for Chrifmaf if my two front teef...

Now that he is 8, Isaac is finally loosing his teeth!!! How precious that his school picture this year captures this special time in his young life! He has lost 4 of his teeth the last couple of months -- that brings the count to a grand total of 6! The loss of teeth has really affected Isaac's pronounciation of things... and for a long time, I thought people were just making fun of kids with no front teeth!

Harvest Round-Up!

Cowboy Seth & Cowgirl Abby

Abby's 1st milking experience :)

Today was Seth and Abby's Harvest Round-Up. Instead of uniforms, the kids were allowed to wear "Western wear". I had signed up to volunteer in the playground to assist with games, set-up and clean-up. So, when I was getting ready this morning, I thought out loud, "Maybe I should dress Western too...". Matthew heard me and commented, "In case you forgot, you are Asian. You are as Far Eastern as they get!" So, I decided on some denims... my everyday wear :)

Look at how cute the kids are... looking Western and having a good 'ol time :) I even braided Abby's hair into french braid pig tails... is there such a thing???
