Caleb at Carole Beach-Adriatic Sea
Jacob Playing along the ice cold water of Lake Barcis, the water comes down the mountains.
Caleb deep in thought:)
Hello All!! You may have already accepted the fact that Blog entries are going to slow down, wiht 2 now its hard to find time to just sit and type as well as upload pics and such. I also started school again so when i am on the computer i am working like a mad woman to complete an assignment. I only have 5 classes left and hope to test out of 1, so close i can taste it:)
We have done alot over the 1st month of Caleb's Life, probably more then we should have but with a 2 year old we couldn't just lounge at home, we had playgroups to attend:) Jacob has enjoyed beign a big brother, we are tackling some hitting issues ( this i blame on a glimpse at Tom and Jerry) and sleeping problems but nothing that i could PINPOINT as being because we brought a baby home. He likes to help and tells us when Cadub is crying.
Caleb is doing awesome, at hsi 2 week appt he had gained 2 lbs, he loves to eat:)
We are having some gas issues, he hardly cries out but he grunts a groans non stop, its very hard to deal with. Mostly it begins at 4 am. We are still trying to figure out what to do and what will work to ease his gas pains.
Caleb has been to the beach, lake Barcis, Murano Island, the first two trips went well, murano island was hot and miserable, (almost anywhere is in Italy in the month of August) but Aunt Annie found beautiful jewels so i guess as a woman it was worth the trip.
We were hoping for a visit over Labor Day from our good friends in Germany with boys the same age as ours, however we will have to try for October neither of the guys were able to get a millage pass approved. DARN ARMY~ and with that we ares till waiting to hear what the future holds for us, it can go 3 different ways so we are hoping to know by this week what way it takes us. Praying it keeps us together.
The boys and i will begin Bible study on the 14th, I include them because Jacob will be in a more structured playing/teaching environment. There will plenty of free time however Jesus will be discussed and bible stories will be taught. I have agreed to be the assistant director for the childcare during the weekly bible study. so along with my own study i will just help manage the program for the children. I already feel Jacob has a passion in his heart, some days he is the first at meal time to ask for Grace to be said, he closes his hands and his eyes and mumbles as daddy says our blessing, again at bedtime he will ask for Jesus and name all the people he wants to pray for, recently he added Caleb on his own, Josh about cried, it;s so awesome to know just by living Gods word we can influence our babies.
Murano Island-famous for their glass.
Jacob with his friend Charlie, they kept watching this farmer, He took Jacob for a short ride however, as soon as he couldn't see daddy Jacob broke down.
Just love this pic of my boys:) they grow too fast!!
Another fav. of my boys:) the outfit Caleb is wearing was Josh's.
