1 Year

It has been an eventful month for us since Easter. I'll hit the high points with pictures.
First, Georgia's interests often remind us of things Christian was interested in as a baby:

reorganizing our DVD's

Below, Christian liked that, too.

Christian used to take it a step further. I think he was a little older in this photo.

I graduated from the Seminary Wives Institute on May 13th & got to participate in the Boyce College graduation ceremony. I'm on the far right of the stage in this shot.

Mrs. Moore was the leader of one of my favorite SWI classes, Discipleship, where I made some AMAZING friends...

like Jaclyn, who also graduated & moved to Texas 2 days later to head up a year-round camp ministry with her hubby.

We've enjoyed some days at the zoo.

And Christian got a new bike!
Thank you, PaPa!

Sweet Allison & Daniel came to visit for a weekend & left behind a b-day present for Georgia
& a new bubble blower for Christian!

On to birthday pictures!

My mom & Dwight came up to help us celebrate the birthday & host a party. Mom & I made the peach colored paper flowers. The shirt was given to Georgia almost a year ago by my cousin's wife, Anna.

My awesome friend Amanda made Georgia's peach cupcakes!

And another incredible friend Jessica helped me reserve the clubhouse at her apartment complex for the party.

No bows, Mommy! It's my day!

I like this cupcake & this cupcake likes me!

No hats either, Mommy!

I give up. Who's going to push me?

My big bro is funny...sometimes.

2. pulls up on furniture
   
3. can stand unsupported (for maybe 30 seconds)
4. shares a room with her brother very well
5. has no teeth
6. has fallen head first into the bathtub trying to reach one of Christian's toys while he was showering (don't worry--no injury & no crying occurred)
7. LOVES to walk holding onto someone's fingers

5 things you didn't know about Christian:

1. He can spell "left, fox, happy, off, out", & maybe a few others when he's in the mood
2. wants to pet the lion at the zoo
3. LOVES Veggie Tales videos & music
4. has discovered my Just Dance 2 Wii game & wants to play it all the time
5. likes to aggravate his little sister. I have SOOO much to learn about brother-sister dynamics.

Sometimes they laugh together & at each other & it's so cute & other times Christian is trying to wrestle with her & she's screaming (not cuz he hurts her, but because she's so frustrated). Oh goodness.

More adventures to come...
