Lara’s faux-hawk when she woke up from her nap.

Lara just being happy; Ethan playing around the house and in his new play hut.

What’s new on our end???  Well, we turned around today and found Lara sitting up on her own.  We both thought the other other one had put her up to sitting.  She’s still not doing a true crawl yet.  She will take a few small “crawls” before she reverts to her low crawl.  Ethan never stops talking.  He just talks and talks.  He tells us what everything is as we go by it…tree, bird, flowers, bee, shoes, foot, toes, nose, eyes…you get the idea.  

Bryan was supposed to have his eye surgery, but didn’t b/c the clinic messed up or gave us wrong information or something.  So, we’re still waiting.  We’re leaving to go camping with our church this Friday out at their campgrounds they own, so we’re excited.  It should be a fun time.  Charlie’s getting to go as well.  We’ve gone to the dog park several times (Ethan and Lara both love getting to meet new dogs) and let Charlie make some new friends.  We have new neighbors who have a boxer, so Charlie is so excited to get to have a playmate next door.  Bryan and I are going to help another young couple from church teach the youth group.  We’ll then split them guys and girls and have discussion.  I know Bryan and I are both excited to get to work with a great group of kids.

 Other than that, we’re just staying busy!
