As Our Family Grows...

Zeke, the master Lego builder. He is always making something new and creative. He usually has a build request for me when I get home.

It's big news when you find a bear the same size as you. =-) Perfect for practicing your hugs.

My beautiful wife showing off our newest addition. Our youngest in mommies "waiting room." (at 16 weeks)

Zeke and Dawson having some good play time together. We often laugh at Zeke and the faces or poses he makes while sleeping, but this was picture worthy.

Here's daddy overhead dropping a parachute. If you look really hard you can just make it out right back from the tail (past the cloud) and just bit down.

This is the newest addition guard dog at the school, Annie. A Great Pyrenees, Anatolian Shepherd mix who is a very fun loving guard dog who keeps us safe. With a very throaty bark and only 6 months old she can stand on her back feet with her front paws on my shoulders easy. BIG dog. =-)

Zeke is almost there but still in the "potting training battle."

The apartment continues to progress, just not at the speed we might want. I continue to do what I can, when I can, with what we already have to work with, and it's coming along.

We would really like to move in by Christmas, or close to that time.

I wouldn't get much down without my partner. He loves to help, even if he can just have a hand in on whatever is going on, he's a part of it. We have fun together.

Oh, so often this is how we all feel, so sleepy from all that happens day to day. Feeling overwhelmed so many times with all that we have going on and still not feeling like we are getting ahead, but knowing that it's all in HIS time, and not ours.

We are so blessed each and every day, and very thankful for our training right now. Please continue to pray for strength each day, wisdom in tackling tasks, and knowledge to get them done.
