praying for dinner

we're teaching jacob praying before dinner, to thank the Lord for the food. it is a very simple prayer, "Jesus, thank you for this food. Amen." he does so good, he repeats it word-by-word. it is the cutest thing to us, so we wanted to capture it on video and share it with family. unfortunately, jacob is a little too smart and saw the camera i was hiding, right as we were sitting down to pray...


and speaking of dinner... i started kate on rice cereal last week. i have only tried twice- this first time she did great, the second time was not so good. maybe i am starting too early, but i feel like she is not being sustained long enough with just milk. she has her 4 month check up tomorrow, so i will ask the dr what he thinks. anyway- some cute pictures jesse got from her first cereal experience.




also, kate is now in competition with isabel in "falling asleep in strange places". here she is after a session of bouncing in her bouncy seat.



and last but not least, jesse thought this was hilarious, and wanted me to blog about it. i told him our blog audience wouldn't appreciate it as much as we do. so, this is for you, honey. here is jackson, balancing coasters on paws. and another one jesse thought everyone should see, jackson sleeping with his tongue out....maybe it is time for jesse to start his own blog!

funny. Yeah, maybe you should start a whole other "Jackson" blog. Kate has changed in three weeks!

We got the ok from K's GI nurse to start giving him rice cereal. His first attempt turned out like Kate's second attempt. :o) So we started putting it in his bottle (Seth widened the tip of one of the nipples), and gave it to him that way, mainly at the evening/night feeds, hoping against hope that it would help him sleep longer. :o)

Kate looks more and more like Cydney--except for her nose. Not sure about that yet. Jackson...well, what is there to say exept, they've made a fool out of you! :) About the praying, Jacob's not going to let you slip anything by him anymore, is he? Love to all. Mom

Kids never seem to perform when the camera comes out. I've had so many moments over the years I've tried to capture and they notice the camera and I get something else. It's those moments that get to be special and cherished just for Mommies and Daddies. Kate is growing so fast; she's beautiful!
