Sophia is going through a growth spurt (or as Jill used to call it when she was little - "growth spirit"). She eats ALL the time. She never gets full. Here she is in her high chair, mouth stuffed full of goulosh and signing "MORE!" We sing a song Jill and Adam made up - "You must chew what you have, chew what you have, chew what you have, you must chew what you have, you must chew what you have!"

Hannah is often in her own little world. She got in my pantry and got out my cupcake baking cups and lined them all up into a l-o-n-g snake.

My brother, Doug drove from Pennsylvania to visit his son, Brandon, and also our brother, Dave, in Kansas City. Then he came down to Newton to see our parents and me. Mom invited us, Mindy, and Jill's family over for a delicious sukiyaki supper. We love Japanese food!! (Adam does NOT like sushii or fish of any kind though!)

Doug spent the night. The next day we ate at the Bread Basket for lunch. Mom suggested we go to church so we did. I showed him around, and in particular, the nursery -since I'm the nursery director. I LOVE those little ones at Grace!

You may have noticed that my brothers names start with the letter D. Our third brother is Dan. The folks named us all with the letter D and our middle names are A, B, C, D. I'm the C being the third child. Any guesses as to what my middle name is?
