Micah newest acheivement

This week Micah started rolling over! He rolls from his back to his stomach and once he gets there he can't get back so he just starts crying! He seems so young to me to be rolling over but I guess it's just because I'm not ready for him to be growing up at all. He also shows interest in table food but I am NOT going to start him on solids yet!

Carrots!

I was given 15 lbs of baby carrots that were close to their expiration date. They are a great blessing but I wasn't sure what to DO with that many carrots. I spent some time online and found out how to freeze carrots. Then I spent all afternoon Saturday chopping, blanching and packing up my carrots. It is such a good feeling to get them all done and know that they are there in my freezer when I need them.

Summer Fun!

Last week was very warm, over 90 most days so I decided to let the kids run in the sprinkler. :-) They had so much fun!!! Josiah was by far the most adventurous, even trying to stop the sprinkler with his feet! Monkey see, monkey do, once he did that then Elijah and Emmaline had to try it too. Jeremiah stayed at the perimeter and was fine so long as he did not get water on his face. They have all been asking every day since when they can do it again, but unfortunately we are now in a "cold snap", overnight it went from 90 + to mid 50's! It has been raining a lot too so it will probably be awhile before they can.
