Eric Gets His MD
Can I take a minute to say how much I admire my husband? He works so hard for us. I am so grateful to him that he can wield such an incredible work ethic with his left hand but still use his right hand to give his best to our family and church.
And, dang, he's hot.
"So somewhere in my youth or childhood, I must have done something good."

Haven is 1!
Happy, happy birthday to our sweet Haven! What a fun year for our family. And a total blur! The first year after having a new child is always such a whirlwind. A whirlwind of love and craziness and precious memories. How happy Haven has made us!!
Right now in Haven's life, she:
~Says hi in her little baby talk to everyone she sees, usually prompting a surprised and delighted response.
~Waves hi with her arm held as straight and high as she can make it while her eyes stare you down. Unwaveringly.
~Gets comments of, "She's so social" and "She has such beautiful blue eyes!" several times a day.
~Constantly says, "Oh!" and "Wow!" to everything around her.
~Tries to make a snort (like a pig noise through her nose) all the time after doing it once by accident and laughing hysterically.
~LOVES balls. She loves playing catch. She'll sit there and throw and catch longer than she'll do anything else. And she has a GREAT arm. Really good aim.
~Gives lots of kisses and hugs--sometimes as her own idea. =)
~Copies words I say out of the blue, such as: buckle, did it, all done, hi, bird.
~Tries to put the grossest thing in her mouth she can possibly fine and then crawls away at a crawl-sprint.
~Immediately starts shaking her hips when she hears a song or any kind of beat.
~Sings along with me.
~LOVES baby genius and will sit there and watch almost the entire thing.
~Is incredibly good at standing up and sitting down with nothing to lean on. She'll stand up in the middle of the room, walk a few steps, and then gracefully sit back down.
~Is VERY ticklish.
~Is an extraordinarily beautiful baby. But I might be biased.
~Is extremely active! She won't sit still with me anywhere. She's quite a workout at church.
~Is the most delightful and interactive little one year old. She smiles and talks to you and wants to have a meaningful conversation. =)
~Has an adorable fake laugh she'll whip out just to make you laugh at her. Or, she'll use it to laugh along when she hears someone else laughing.
~Is loved immensely.
