Guildy Turns 4!

We now have a real live 4-year-old living at our house! We had a little BBQ on Saturday to celebrate the event. The wind was blowing too hard to keep candles going, so she had to pretend to blow them out:o)
Ever since we left Honduras, Guildy has bemoaned the loss of the slip-and-slide she had there. So now that the weather is a little warmer, Josh made one for her birthday. Great grandma Pearl had a good time helping the girls slide!Uncle Lee and Great Grandma PearlAunt Charity with the birthday girlEsther and GuildyWe're thankful to have such a vibrant, healthy, smart little girl and we trust God to turn each of her strengths and weaknesses into something glorifying to Him. Happy Birthday Guildy!

Such a Big Girl!

Hadley is turning into such a toddler and not so much a baby anymore. She decided to be potty trained a couple weeks ago. She must have been carefully studying Guildy's bathroom habits for quite sometime, because I hardly had to do a thing! The day I gave the cloth diapers one final washing was an event worthy of photographic documentation! Hadley is thoroughly enjoying the new-found freedom from clothes afforded by summer potty training!After her photo with the diapers, she rummaged through the laundry basket, chose a dress, and toodled over to enjoy the flowers.And last but not least, here is a quick video of one of Hadley's favorite activities!
