Nothing new and exciting to report...we are just doing our thing out here. Steven has been in a LOT of pain with his rheumatoid arthritis so keep him in your prayers. We celebrated our 5th anniversary on 10/4! We're still decorating the house, little by little.
Autumn is slowly but surely making its way down south. Its still in the 70s but the leaves are falling and the foliage is amazing! Here is a pic of the leaves on the tree outside our house...
And our little harvest decor...
The kids are doing great! Josiah has been working on writing his letters and can write most of them. He knows how to write his own name too. He loves to color and he is really into pretending...so he pretends he's at the drive thru, or at the atm, or getting us something to eat. He plays with his stuffed animals as if they are his friends, and never gets tired of harassing Ella (I think big brothers have that wired in their DNA haha). He cracks us up with the things he says like the other day I was getting him a drink...I passed it to him and he responds with "Thank you, my love." hahaha lover boy in the making!
Ella is just as crazy as ever. This little girl is the sweetest thing and loves to makes friends with total strangers. I can just picture her introducing Josiah to all of her friends, since he is so shy. SHe has a temper as well and if you cross her, watch out! I guess its that spanish blood...yikes! Her new favorite word is "stop!" and she says it all the time! Her new tricks are climbing up the stairs (we only knew when she escaped one day and in a matter of 30 seconds was on the 3rd floor!) and attempting to eat with a spoon. Her hair is starting to get long enough for me to play with and I gave her her first pair of pigtails the other day! This is going to be so much fun!
