You can’t see Elias very well but I like the sounds. 

This is Lucy and Zoe.

I was recently given an itunes gift card and want to make the most of the money!  So tell me what you all have been listening to these days.

BTW thanks Justin for this great gift!

I did buy this and really like it.

Tea Parties

Lucy has been having lots of tea parties in her room latley.  It’s pretty fun.  The other day she came running into my room and said Mom come quick.  This is what I found.

Summer Update

Filed under: What I'm into — by Kellie @ 6:05 pm

This summer has just been flying by and I have been so bad at blogging I don’t even know where to start.

So what have I been doing this summer? 

Mainly chasing the 2 kiddos!  And I don’t think chasing is too much of an exaggeration.  Elias is all over the place.  He started crawling in June or maybe before- it’s all a blur.  In no time he was up steps and pulling himself up to everything!  He spends most of his time crying – either he’s hurt or frustrated that I won’t let him do something that will make him hurt!  I love the little sweetie though.  He also says maa, ma, maum now too.  He means it about pretty much anything he wants – so it is directed at me at times!

Lucy is doing soccer this summer and loving it.  I’m really glad we signed her up- it’s a fun way to get her exercise.  She also just did swimming lessons this past week in Algona with her cousin Zoe. 

We have been to Iowa several times- once celebrating my brother in laws 40th- we had a great weekend at Lake Okoboji.  Another time visiting Dustin’s family and seeing his sister’s new house.  And this past week seeing dear friends, visiting more family and Dustin preached at my brother’s church.  He preached from the book of Jonah- maybe I’ll share more about that in another post! 

Between all the traveling I have also been spending time with dear Syrian friends who are helping me with Arabic most Thursday afternoons! 

On top of all that we are preparing for our big move in the fall.  It feels full but I am grateful to God for all the people he has put in our life!

I think she would do everything for Elias if I let her.
