Apparently, I didn’t take a single picture in January. I think the only thing that we started was Dan teaching Bible at HCA (private Christian middle school here in Hannibal). Oh, and evidently we put together the bus that Grandma LuAnn and Grandpa Frank generously sent along with the Jumperoo. In February, Dinah turned 26 months and Sophie turned 7 months.
Here are a couple of Christmas shots including Grandpa Bob attempting to read the Christmas story with a squirmy 2 year old on his lap and Dinah enjoying Aunt Jana playing with a pom-pom on her head. Good times!
Dinah really loves to play in everyone’s shoes, but especially Mommy’s high heels. This was last December, so she’s almost 2 in these shots.
Dinah was almost 2. Sophie was 5.5 months. It seems like so long ago!
To blogging, that is. Hopefully. We’ll see. I’d advise you against any breath-holding.
It’s been a year since we moved to Hannibal, MO from Kentucky and has brought gobs of changes. We’ve been in our first house for a year, existed as a one-car family as a year, had Sophie for a year (we love you, So!), Dan’s been pastoring for a year and teaching Bible at a private middle school for a semester, and I’ve been living without an appendix for about 9 months (I haven’t missed it, in case you were wondering). Crazy, crazy, crazy! Well, my hope is that I’ll be better about keeping this thing updated, especially with pictures of Jujubee1 and Jujubee2. I’m going to go ahead and reward my faithful readers (including those I text to say that I finally updated our blog) with some pictures from last December. That’s right, last December. There are more to come. And I might update our About page. Happy Trails!
Grandma LuAnn sent some super-cute red outfits and we did a little photo shoot of them back in late November. Thanks, Grandma!!
So I had my appendix out on November 12. My mother graciously came and helped us out. We had a great time! Mom also got the super-fun experience of being the “Box Monster,” one of Dinah’s favorite things in the entire world. Thank you so much for coming to see us!
Be sure to check out how Dinah is rockin’ some pigtails 
Here are some pictures of some Bumbo fun we had with Sophie mid-November.
Dinah was the most awesome pirate ever for Halloween! We had a great time Trick or Treating with friends from church.
