A Fun Day at the Zoo

We had a great day at the zoo! Aubrey loved it all. She played her little heart out. What was really impressive was how much fun Aidan had. He especially enjoyed feeding the goats. Also he did awesome using his standing legs to play in the hands on pool feeling sea stars, sea slugs, anemone and more. He probably would have done it longer, but his legs were getting tired and so was my back! But it was neat that he got to participate in that. I was so proud of him standing so nicely. Way to go Aidan!

Sibling Love

Aubrey is developing a real soft spot for Aidan, and Aidan adores his sister!

We had such a great time with our cousins at the beach in Seaside, Oregon. It was great seeing the kids have fun chasing the waves, getting filthy in the sand, and loving on each other. Hopefully they will remember this trip when they grow up.

Precious Girl

Every day it's something new with this girl. Here are a few more precious things Aubrey has said lately.

- We were driving in the car and she says, "I'm sad." I ask her why and she says, "Because Gabe isn't here anymore." She prays about Gabe and Danielle's cat, Marcella (who has gone missing) every night.

- Susan was here watching the kids today. Justin came to take Aubrey to the park and as they were leaving Aubrey says to Susan, "Do you need anything?" Susan replies, "I just need you to have a great time." Aubrey says, "Ok, but if you need anything, you let me know."

- Tonight as I was tucking her in she pulls my face really close to her with both hands and says, "You're gorgeous."

Thank you God, for such a precious girl. She lights up our lives.
