Yikes.

I haven't blogged in so long that I'm not sure where to start.

Lots of new pics of our busy life on my Facebook. CLICK HERE for a link to "Mommy's Paisley Faye Album III" -- the most current one.

Paisley is coming up on 6 months old! Her life is full of rolling across the living room, cooing, gasping, and squealing, smiling with her whole little body, playing with toys, reading books with Mommy, going on walks with Daddy, going shopping, lots of eating and sleeping and growing, getting hugs and kisses from her family nearby and receiving lots of love from her family far away...she's a busy little girl! Her current favorite pastimes include smiling at the girl in the mirror, talking to and feeling all the clothes in Mommy & Daddy's closet, and riding in the Moby Wrap. She dislikes being hungry and being boring. (She won't sit with me at the computer unless she's watching a little something in the corner of the screen...)

Half a year as a family of three and life has never been better! God has been so good to us and we are so very blessed. He's held our hands and taken us through some pretty difficult times as of late, but oh-so-victorious through His grace!

Andrew is currently working for the Oregon National Guard. His full-time orders expire end of September, at which time his NG duties will narrow down to just one drill weekend a month, leaving him free to pursue other vocational options. We're excited about some new ideas we have and are waiting to see if God swings those doors open, or redirects us in some other way.

Well, my girl's up and Andrew just got home from work, so onward to the family part of the day...my favorite!

Until next time.
