see my breakfast?

it goes in my mouth...

and now it's gone!

"yogurt, yogurt!"

we went to pick up some yogurt and he saw the yogurt drink. he pointed at it and said, "yogurt". he loves that yogurt from drinking it in the toddler room at HOPE. ha, ha, he recognized the packaging, how funny! baba was nice enough to buy him a package. the next morning, he was asking for it already.

too many toys!

too much food & excitement at church today!

i've been sick the last two sundays, so it was really nice to be back at HOPE. we thought we were a few minutes late, but we found out that we were 45 minutes late! why didn't anyone tell us that church was at 10:00 am today instead of 10:30?! yikes. well we were told that nj was helpful in the toddler room, helping to put everything away. ha, ha, yes, that's my boy! he got to see some old faces and friends... uncle jeff, uncle tom, auntie rae, judah, emiah, gideon, auntie katiana, gabby... he also ate quite a bit from the snack table too. must've been hungry like mama was. talking and catching up with everyone, i ended up crying a lot. once i started, i couldn't stop! it was one thing after another. haven't cried that much since last week in the hospital as an emotional wreck. funny how life happens and how God works. so much reality and raw emotions happening all at the same time.
