First Haircut

This face did not last long at all!It's unbelievable how a hair cut makes him seem SO much older.

Funny story about Isaiah: Yesterday I was talking to Maddie and called her babe, Isaiah turned around to me and with a very confused look said, "I not your babe." He thought I was talking to him! I never knew a 2 year old could be so opinionated!

Just a few days ago, Antaun and I were meeting with someone from Drumm Farm talking, not paying attention to Isaiah. I looked over only to see him jumping off the little kid table saying, "I buzightyeor, and beyond" it was complete with a landing noise as he hit the floor! I laughed so hard, it was hilarious.

I LOVE THIS LITTLE BOY!!!!!

Well most of you all know that Antaun and I agreed I get to have Isaiah's hair the way I like it for the first 2 years. It's funny to admit but I had actually been feeling truly sad about parting with his curls. It took a little bit but I decided I like it. Antaun was gracious and did not shave it. I'm fairly certain he knew that would not be a good idea!

Human

Lately this song gets stuck in my head, makes me smile and know I am right where I'm supposed to be.

I'm so thankful for music.


Every life has a choice
to rise up to fill the void
Every heart has a mission
And we are called to be human.

We gotta do better than this cuz
we only have one chance to make a difference
We gotta do better than this cuz
we only have one life that we've been given
A little love, a little kindness, a little light in this time of darkness
It'll be what makes us different
It'll be what makes us human
I'm human, you're human, we are human.

We are marked with His image
And we are scarred with indifference
Maybe now we should listen
Hear the cry of God's children

Look who's two!

Our Birthday Boy, who LOVES pider man!!
Uncle Seth hooked him up with a MWSU jersey

Isaiah with one of his favorite people

I did a very bad job at taking pictures of everyone at the party. We had a great time, Isaiah loved it all. He was so excited for his pider man, motocycle cake! A few nights before the boy woke me up at 4:00 in the morning. I could NOT get him to go back to sleep so of course naturally I lay him beside me (I now take care of 10 children and I wanted some sleep) as I drift off to sleep I hear, "Hey mommy (in this deep little voice) I want my pider man cake." He went on to talk about his birthday party for a few minutes. It was funny in the morning!

We are so thankful for our little boy. He makes me laugh every day. My favorite lately was when I asked him if he pooped and he replied, "no it just gas!"

Maddie goes to Preschool

Maddie busting a move before we left!
Love this smile
Isaiah was sad after Maddie left and kept asking for her with a sad face so I tried to make him laugh and he started making this silly smile! He kept saying , "where my sider mayon (spider man) backpack?"

So I have had the world's WORST day ever!!!!!! Like the kind of day that makes you want to give up. I was sitting thinking about what would help get my mind off of many different things and sometimes it just helps to blog and read other blogs.

I told Antaun this week that having my baby go to preschool and having my other baby turn 2 is WAY too much for a mama in one week!!! On a happy note, Maddie LOVED school, did not cry and asked if she could go back the next day.

Fun on the Farm

It makes me sad I can't put pictures of the kids on here so I am trying to be creative!! It's been a good week. I think life here gets easier and easier everyday it's still hard but getting better! Antaun had a blast today playing football with all the boys in the other houses. We went to church this morning and then a sweet lady took us out to lunch. So blessed and thankful for life.
