Monday Musings

Like many other Oklahomans, what's on my mind today is the weather. What's up with overnight freezing temps, earthquakes, tornadoes, and flooding? And all within less than a week? What's up with Oklahoma having earthquakes at all? That's like the one advantage to put up with all the tornadoes is that at least there aren't earthquakes. Not that the earthquakes have been bad around here. We felt a couple of them, but the worst one shook the blinds in our living room. We had no idea what had happened until later.

30 Days of Thankfulness: Day 7

Freezing and earthquakes and tornadoes! Oh My!

What a bizarre last 7 days! Who would think you could have all of that in a week? Or earthquakes in Oklahoma at all? Today I am thankful that we are all ok. God watches over us through everything we endure, good and bad.

I'm baaaaaccckkk...

Ok. I've been a total slacker. I really enjoy blogging, but it seems life has just gotten in the way the last couple of months. I'm determined to keep it up from now on. (We'll see) In stead of going on and on, I'll be brief and put up a few months' pictures in review a little later.
Well, we've all been ok, aside from Jason's gout and some stupid Oklahoma (or Snowklahoma as it has been renamed) weather. Thanksgiving was great, Christmas was wonderful too although stretched out due to a blizzard. Emma will be 7 months old tomorrow and is just so much fun! She's babbling almost constantly now, has been sitting up on her own for almost 3 months now and has pulled herself up on furniture for a couple of weeks now. She has tried many different fruits and vegetables and a couple of different meats. She loves trying to grab my food off my plate, but doesn't have any teeth yet so she doesn't get much.
I've been watching Jason's cousin's two kids- Rebecca who is nearly 4 and Cullen, 3 1/2 who have been having a blast playing with Emma everyday!
Pictures to come soon and I promise to be better about updating so come back soon!
