(Almost) Ready for Christmas!
First Introduction to the Christmas Tree We’ve really been having a lot of fun this year jumping wholeheartedly into the holiday spirit. We (yes, did you know David is an awesome kitchen assistant??… especially when it comes to cookies) baked seven dozen cookies for the women’s ministries cookie exchange, were Continue Reading
First Snow!
Finally! It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas! We had over 10 inches of snow on Sunday. We did venture out to do some Christmas shopping and Alexander was less than pleased when the blowing, biting wind plucked the blanket off his carrier and nipped his nose. (Though we Continue Reading
Babe to Bethlehem
The other day we took Alexander for little stroll through Bethlehem. Strangely enough it only took about 15 minutes to get there and there must have been something special going on in town because there were so many familiar faces everywhere we turned. It wasn’t until the gossiping salon lady Continue Reading
Merry First Christmas, Alexander

Often times- or maybe always- it gets to overshadow the simple, heart-sparkling joys that is really the essence of this whole new world of ‘motherhood.’ I thought I Continue Reading
Thank You, Grandma!
From time to time, Grandma Winkler comes down from Saginaw on her day off and gets to spend some time with her little grandson and give Nana Johnson an extra day off. They’re good days for all of us, and we’re happy Alexander gets so much love and care. This Continue Reading
Little Fruit Monster!
With two new top teeth to show off, Alexander has been delighting his bite with the tasting of “real people” fruits. Yummm! He’s enjoyed cherry (good but messy), banana (one his favorites from papa), apple, peeled grape, and raspberry (not a favorite). We are afraid that he is beginning to Continue Reading
