Gracie is growing too fast!

I can't believe that Gracie is already a little over 5 months old!  Her baby hair has fallen out and new hair is growing in. It's spiky like mine used to be. I'm excited about that. She has started eating rice cereal and peas so far. She LOVES her food. She gets really excited, kicks a lot and reaches for the food.  She is such a great baby. We love her so much. Having a baby is such an incredible joy. Definitely extremely challenging but more rewarding than I can describe. It truly gives me an entirely new perspective on how God loves us. 

Dean

Dean let me know recently that, though he is confident he will experience glory and enjoy God the way we were all made to...the story of his life and death is the story of a God who came to love, save, and redeem a fallen man.

We have alot of reasons to laud Dean.  Let's not forget that all good things are the result of a God who loves us.

Sorry we haven't updated lately.  Life with a baby leaves little time for recreation/blogging/yard art/personal hygiene/etc.

But some new photos are up on Sarah's flickr.com site.

For Uncle Jake

Here is the enormous bulldog that is outside the Citadel football stadium. Gracie is posing with it to show Uncle Jake how big it is compared to her.

Sweet times with Daddy

It is so sweet to see Gracie and Patrick napping together. They are both so happy and relaxed.
What a precious time for the two of them.
