praise: landon has been praying at night and at every meal for some extra money to do something special that doesn't fit into our budget. we were able to see some answer to prayer as we had a portion of the needed amount come in. he was very excited.
awhile back, i posted that we had qualified for the county's weatherization process. they began the work this past thursday and will complete it on monday. so far, we've had insulation blown into our outer walls and insulation put in our basement around the perimeter of the house above the cinderblocks. they peeled back some siding, drilled holes between the studs, blew the insulation in, plugged the hole with fiberglass insulation, then put the siding back. picture is at the end of this post.
prayer: amber's dad is having either triple or quadruple bypass surgery early next week. please pray for the surgery to be successful and his recovery to be quick.
dalton's first 2 teeth are just about to break through. he's sleeping fitfully during this (although he has slept through the night 3 times this week). please pray that they come through and the pain subsides.
playfulness: i asked dave to design me a picture for above our kitchen sink that i could frame. i wanted a verse that helps me stay focused on the picture. here's what he did-isn't it WONDERFUL!!!
i ordered it this afternoon, and it should be in by the end of next week. i need to find the perfect frame now. (for those of you who haven't been to my house-my kitchen is done in grapes.)
for those of you who have been in our living room-you know that we have black and whites of the kids for our decoration. i decided that we needed to update them to include dalton. here are samples of what will be up.
those are the ones that will be used. here are some other cute ones of the boys.
dalton attacked one of his toys yesterday.
landon asked me to put together his wood bird that he received from sunday school.
the kids and i dipped our sliced apples in peanut butter-i love the fall! (well, almost.)
after auburn ate hers, she said she had a goatee (like daddy.)
landon had a mustache.
