tatum, a.k.a. "stinky britches", has recently begun standing up on her own (2nd picture) but only when she doesn't mean to, like when she's watching avery or the dogs and forgets that she's on her own two feet. it's funny when you see your own kid every day you don't notice how grown up she is, but looking at these pictures, especially the first one with her long legs, i can't believe she's so big! she's already eating table food, she can "gimme five", and her laugh cracks me up every time... it's the best laugh i've ever heard!so avery & i made easter cookies a few days ago... yes i know easter was two weeks ago. anyway, we've been saying "Jesus is alive.... Hallelujah" alot and avery's version is "Jesus is live...how-lu-la." she's usually very articulate and pronunciates her words so precisely that we make fun of her, so it's really interesting to me that no matter how many times i pronounce "hallelujah" for her, it still comes out "how-lu-la". we've also been memorizing ephesians 6:1 (children, obey your parents.....) with her and she can say the verse perfectly but the "ephesians" comes out "feseesions". does this type of bible verse brainwashing work? we don't know but we thought it was worth a try. :)

what cuties the girls are!
avery has looked like brian from day one, and tatum is YOU. how fun is that?!
i'm excited to get to keep up with you. i've loved blogging about our family for the sake of family and friends i don't see, but have recently enjoyed the outlet for sharing what God is doing in my life.
i'm actually considering a third blog.... i've got the fever. :)
have a wonderful weekend!
I agree with cristina on Tatum is YOU! No doubt about it.
Yes, the Bible verse brainwashing does work. Several times now when the subject of work, why work, people not working, etc comes up...Parker boldy tells everyone, "if you don't work...you don't eat!" Then I'll say, "lazy hands" then he'll finish with "make a man poor but diligent hands bring wealth!" So...keep it up they absorb it. Talk soon...everyone's crazy here.
