Baby dedication

Today was baby dedication day at NW. So we made our pledge and got a plaque and Miranda's first bible. Wish I had access to a camera so I could send pics.
We were all very tire that day as we were all very excited and could not sleep well the night before.
Everyone here is doing well and looking forward to another new week to start (not). Hope that all is well with everyone else. Take care and I will try to post more often!

Well hello again sorry it has been a couple of days since posting anything, but having a new baby in the house makes for odd hours and snippets of sleep. Miranda is now 10 lbs. and has grown an inch and a half for a total of 21.5 inches. She smiles a lot, but mostly grunts and snorts, just today she held her first rattle toy, I don't think that she liked it as she hit herself in the head and cried ...it was my fault for pushing her.
Loree is doing ok she has not really expressed a desire to go to work yet. But I know that any day now she will start to get cabin fever.
Matthew had to be pushed to get caught up on his home work which meant that certain privlages were taken away (video games, visiting friends ) but he managed to buckle down and get it all done in one night.
Me I learned to play the "Boogie Woogie" on my guitar along with a 12 bar blues scale in E, C, and A m. Not quite ready to go on the road yet but I am enjoying it. Someone gave me C.S. Lewis's Mere Christianity which is an excelent read. I had just recently finished reading his science fiction trilogy The Silent Planet , Perlandria, This Hideous Strength which I found to be enlightening and entertaining.
O.K. so enough for rambling and such I just thought that I would do a little catching up. Hope to here from you soon.

My first blog

Well welcome first of all. Forgive me if this is not what you expected. But like the title says this is my first blog. I started this to share things about my family with friends and relatives. Somehow I think that it will be easyer to communicate across the world and neiborhoods with those I care about. Unfortunately it will be awhile before I will be able to put up pictures but know that they will be forthcomeing.
