Hospitality

I can't wait to open presents!!!

I can get pretty loud, wanna hear?

We had a fantastic Christmas and New Year's Eve. Truitt and I spent the entire time in Decatur, TX with Josh's family. Miraculously the gifts all fit in our car and we arrived back home in Houston safe and sound. Some highlights of the trip were seeing Truitt on his first Christmas, watching cousin Jed sing and clap to "Shout Hallelujah", Malaya's new talents and stories, B and Papa, our Christmas Eve game, catching up with Adrienne, sweet tea and FUDGE! I am so thankful to be part of a family that loves me so much, even though I'm not a blood relative. Thank you for your hospitality Bev and Rick. I love you so much and can't imagine life without you. Enjoy the pictures. - Kayci

Merry Christmas and the ER

This is a picture of Truitt enjoying his Christmas gift from us, a high chair. He loves to eat!

We've had some drama at our house in the last 48 hours. Truitt crawled right off our bed before we could catch him and hurt his collar bone. We visited the ER Friday night, realized that the wait was 4 1/2 hours, left and then went back to the doctor and hospital for x-rays Saturday morning. Whew! All that to say, Truitt has a badly bruised left collar bone and we are thankful it's not broken. He should be back to normal in a week or less. Praise God!

Merry Christmas to everyone that sees this blog. You are loved by a God that gives hope and truth. He's crazy about you!

Mary's song:

"My soul glorifies the Lord and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior, for he has been mindful of the humble state of his servant. From now on all generations will call me blessed, for the Mighty one has done great things for me- holy is his name." - Luke 1:46-49

growing up

He's pulling up

How clever is that?

Truitt is growing up way to fast! He recently had his two bottom front teeth break through! I know it seams like just yesterday... but how do you make it stop??? I'm cherishing these moments while I have them. Every stage has its blessings. I plan to treasure them in my heart like Mary, the mother of Jesus. I love him SO much. I can't imagine life without him. : ) Thank you Lord for allowing me this joy! - Kayci

I'm crawling!

7 months old - teething and crawling!

I can't believe it, yep he's crawling! He's now 7 months and a week and he started crawling last night. I caught him in action on the video camera and I'll get it on the blog just as soon as I figure it out. I was loading the washing machine while Josh was watching him in the living room and all of a sudden I heard Josh yelling "Kayci... calling!" so I yelled back, it's OK, I'll call them back in a minute! He kept yelling "calling... calling!" and I'm thinking, Josh, relax I'll call them back! I strolled into the living room and Josh is pointing in disbelief - "He crawling!" Oh, CRAWLING! I grabbed my video camera and started filming right away. He's so cute! I realize now that my job just got a LOT harder! Hooray for Truitt!! - Kayci

So sorry this has taken so long. I've tried several times to post new pictures, but every time I do the work of creating a new post it tells me it cannot perform the task at the time. So, here are some more pictures... finally!

We went to good ol' Louisiana to meet half- way for our whole family to get together for the holiday. It was such a nice little resort. It rained quite a bit, but the time with family was outstanding. I am so THANKFUL to be part of this family. God has truly been good to me!
