I couldn't believe how expressive David was! At only a few weeks old!? He was cracking me up. Maybe he's this smiley because there's so much fun stuff to look at in his room. His Momma used to design displays for Eddie Bauer, and Phil and Heather have been missionaries in Latin America for most of the last several years, so they've got all kinds of amazing treasures worked into his room:
This blanket (above) was made by a mutual friend of Heather's and mine, and it is UH. MAZE. ING!!! When it was passed around at the Shower, there were several of us who were plotting how we could sneak it home to keep for ourselves... ;0) Sorry, David.
Remember this storyboard (below) from Heather's Maternity Session?
Those were pretty much the only "boy" toys they had at the time, and I thought it would be fun to incorporate them again:
(Heather: Don't lose those toys! I'm thinking it could be really cool to incorporate them down the road, too... ;0) )
I'm in love with Heather's childhood stuffed puppy:
Another fun face:
Heather and I had a good laugh over this one:
Despite the fact that David is their 3rd, she still went and got all these parenting books just before he came. Hee hee! That's so me, too. (As a side note, I HIGHLY recommend Shepherding a Child's Heart, and the Parent's Handbook. Corey and I are leading a study based off of them on Wednesday nights at church right now, and I'm reading/working through them for about the 3rd time... GOOD stuff!!!) We pass a lot of books back and forth with the O Fam. (One other I'll mention is Treasuring God in our Traditions by Noel Piper. If you're looking for some inspiration for keeping your, and your kids', focus on the real meanings of the upcoming holidays, you'll love this book! The Os loaned it to us, and had to pry it back out of my hands after I had borrowed it for waaaay too long... he he.)
David, we're SO glad you're here!!!!!
