Life at Apartment 236

I realized the other day that it's been, well a long time since I've done a post. I've tried to figure out if we've been super busy or if life as just been happening. I'm pretty sure it's just that life keeps moving on, not only for us but for everyone. So I thought I'd take a few minutes to just give you an update about what's happening at NTBI's Apartment 236.

Our kids are growing every day. They're always coming up with funny new sayings. Last week, I asked Grace what she was thinking about, her response, "Mmmmm, I'm thinking about Eggnog." As you can see, she's full of life and energy!

What I love about these days, is that there's plenty of time to cuddle my kids. If I'm not careful, the busyness of life will come and rob this from me. However, when I am intentional I have a lot of very precious moments with my kids. As much as Grady will let me, I pull him up onto my lap and just hold him. The day will come when he'll want to get down and not stop to rest with his mommy.

Grace is still enjoying hanging out with her friends. They enjoy taking their babies to the gym and playing with them.

As you can see, Grady still loves his footie jammies as much as he did the day I introduced them to him. He thinks it's hilarious to take his four stuffed animals and zip them up inside his jammies. I have to admit, I think it's pretty funny too!

Grace is really enjoys writing and coloring. I was making a grocery list the other day and she thought it would be a good idea to make one as well. Somehow I didn't get a red head, but I did get a leftie.

 Grady and Grace still love to dress up. This is one of the best dress up pictures. Grace is pretending to be a princess pirate and Grady is leading the ship.

 



In the mist of children, school work, housework, and SWP, Kent and I are making the time to be together.

 

Classes here are going well. Someone told me we only have six weeks of classes to go, and then we'll head home for the summer. It's really overwhelming to think that we're almost done with our first year at NTBI. We've been learning about the life of Christ and who Christ is. Next week, we're starting to study of the book of Acts. We've also been learning practical things about everyday life. Like how important relationships are and being able to communicate well in those relationships.

I hope this finds you all well, living your lives as they continue to march on just as ours does.
