Roo Wuz Here

This is toddler tagging in these parts.

while you were NOT sleeping

Naptime was not a resounding success today.

This video was taken about an hour into the slumberless party. The camera is set to Roo's crib, but Em is easy to hear, too.

McWeekend

The McGrandparents came to visit this weekend.


Which allowed J and I to attend an out-of-town wedding.

Thank you Grandpa and Marmee!

The RGs had an outstanding time and have been asking after G'Pa and Mamee quite a lot.

Saints' Prayers

There are quite a few people on the girls' prayer docket each evening. Most are family and dear friends. But over the last 2 years, we've had some special requests make appearances. They are all babies. Born and unborn. In need of miracles. We have been there. We. Are. Here.

Join us, today, in covering these two children, Sarah and Stellan, with prayer.



And celebrate in the answered prayers for these children, and these, and these, and this child.

Screaming Eaglets

Last night J was on the phone with customer service. I was getting dinner ready for the girls. Roo and Em were well into the grumpy zone and there was much vocalization. It was plain for the customer service rep to hear over the phone.

At one point, Roo yelled/screeched/screamed so loud that it obliterated J's phone conversation.

rep: Sir. Would it be possible for you to step away from your bird?

J: (silence)...Uh? ...What?

rep: Your. Bird. Sir. Can you step away from your bird so I can hear you?

J: (spit-take, uproarious laughing) That is not a bird. (wheezing laughter) It's my daughter!"
