Maryn spout sighting ...

The say a picture says a thousand words. Someday, we'll tell the true story, but now it's your turn to tell us what you think happened.

Update from the Dominican Republic

For those that didn't know, Josh and I are in the Dominican Republic with his Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA) Baseball team. Here's a picture of Josh today in the middle of a very hot game. If you'd like to know more as we're on this trip, please go to the blog for the team http://fcapowerbaseball.blogspot.com.

Meet Winston

We've added a new family member over the weekend, Winston. Josh and Caleb have wanted a puppy for a long time and Maryn has loved every dog she sees. We were surprised that she loves dogs the way she does because the orphanage told us she was afraid of small furry animals. Winston is a Shih-Chon, a mix between a Shih-Tzu and Bichon. He is little and will only be about 8-10 pounds fully grown. He has been great, only one accident so far. He even endures Maryn "loving" on him! She loves to hold him!

Happy Mother's Day

One of the things I love to do is play with videos. Here's a little clip that Maryn and I put together for Mommy for Mommy's Day. As you'll see, there's no lack of personality.

Peek a boo!

These pictures don't even need words!

Big Brother and Little Sister

While Josh was away on his two band trips, Maryn's only playmate was Caleb and the two really had some fun together. It is so wonderful to see how Maryn has bonded with us and the love between these two is evident, even in these pictures. These are moments that I'll treasure for life!

A Girl and Her Stuff

Maryn definitely takes after her mom when it comes to "needing" her stuff. This day she went to great lengths to get all her stuff into her arms...quite a lot...a box of raisins, her juice cup and her baby doll. It was comical to watch, but the joy in her face when she succeeded was priceless!
