Post #14 of Personal Project 52 weeks. * He’s walking! Officially, finally. 14 months & 1 week. We thought for sure he’d be walking by 1 year. But he surprised us. Going at his own pace. Content to crawl for a while longer. * It wasn’t until I zoomed in with the camera that I…
Post #13 of Personal Project 52 weeks. Weekly post. A day late. Again. Sometimes you just have to put family first. And work. And house. And other commitments. * Mattias loves to lay his weary head on pillows. Often accompanied by “nigh-nigh”. He sure is letting himself be known lately. He has a loud strong…

once again….great pics! I smiled about the forts, just today the kids had quilts and blankets all over the playroom building forts for themselves and all the animal stuffies…Noah was in there like a dirty shirt! Good to see the progress on Art’s hands…small steps hey 🙂 And Mattias…what a cutie!ReplyCancel
Post #11 of Personal Project 52 weeks. * Car line-ups. A boy thing. A 3-year old thing. Or 2-year old thing (because that’s when it began). The line-ups are getting more and more elaborate. Sometimes even arranged by color. Often all facing the same direction… except the grader because he always thinks the back is…

LOVE the car lineup!! Joel did the exact same thing, in fact it’s ALL he did. We just needed his bucket of cars and he was happy. I used cars to potty train him too. I bought a 24 pack of cars and every time he pooped in the potty he got a new car. Worked for him but every kid is different too. Hope it gets better for you!!ReplyCancel

Once again, love these pictures! I know I’ve said it before…but that picture of the cars line up brought me back to when Cody was 3, sigh! wish I had taken these types of pictures! Love the pics of boys….beautiful shots in great moments. I’ll say it again…the tears are not worth it Karin! I’m coming from experience with my son, it will happen in due time! (I know, easier said than done) Hang in there!ReplyCancel
Post #10 of Personal Project 52 weeks. Okay a wee bit of warning. If you are squeamish, don’t look at the top right photo. It’s in black & white to soften the blow. * I always thought that by default any child of mine would love technology. As if technology-loving is a predisposition. Inherited. And…

Okay – that rice dish looks positively yummy. I’ll bet I’m the only one in my family who would love it. So therefore I can never make it. Cause I usually only make what my kids will eat. 🙂 You’ll get there …. haha
Pic of Art’s hand? Cool. But that’s the nurse in me. However, it does look painful. I don’t blame you for taking pics. When Braden was in the hospital last year, we took pics of him too. With chest leads and everything. 🙂ReplyCancel
Post #9 of Personal Project 52 weeks. It has been quite a week. Mattias started the week sick and puking. Noah was sick and puking by Thursday night and all day Friday. For once, I was spared. God knew that I would need my strength for something different. Art sustained a work injury on Wednesday….

Hey you! Thinking of you guys through this all. I think Al actually gasped when he heard in church 🙂 Too close for comfort. I hope you have the same hand surgeon as Al did in Langley. He apparently is the best of the best we’ve been told by many other medical professionals. Wishing you both much strength and patience through the long wait for the best possible recovery and outcome of this. Take care… thanks for posting.ReplyCancel
Audrey - your little guys are so beyond cute!
Lisa - I love the first photo of your boys! Sooooo adorable!
