Seth's first soccer game

Seth had his first soccer game last week Wednesday. It was fun watching him. He had some fans come out and see him (Auntie Dani, Papa & Grandma, Mrs. Baker who is his JK teacher, Ethan and Mommy, Daddy had to work). He has never played soccer before, but had fun playing for 1/2 of the game. I think he got upset because he was trying to kick the ball, and someone from the other team kicked it instead. It is kinds of funny, since kids learn at home and at school to share and not take things away from others, and in soccer the whole idea is to get the ball away from the other team. I can see how confusing that would be for a 5 year old. We hope that he will get the hang of soccer and enjoy the season of playing. His coach happens to be our family dentist and her husband coaches as well. The following pictures are from the first game.

Ethan was trying to take a picture of Auntie Dani, he has the idea of what to do, just needs to learn to point the lense the other way.

Some exciting news! We are moving! We ended up listing our house on the market at the beginning of April. After 2 weeks of lots of showings and an open house, Paul's parents told us that they wanted to buy our house. Paul's mom has always loved our home. Since we had listed the house through our agents (who by the way are really awesome agents if you ever need one!, Check the post below for their name and number) we were bound by contract to stay with them for a period of time. Anyways, Paul's parents contacted them and put in an offer, and we accepted. So as of the end of July, we will be moving into our new home. We had put an offer on this home with condition that we sold our home. Things worked out so smoothly and you can see God's hand, timing and plan in this all. We are thankful and excited!!!

April pictures

Here are just some random photos taken in April. I haven't really thought to take many pictures lately, but still want to update my blog.

snuggling with Daddy in the morning

Seth knows how to pump himself on the swing, so any chance he can get, he is out there on the swing. It opens up a whole new world to him. Plus he also knows how to ride his bike with no training wheels. He is pretty proud of that. He worked on that during the March break. He is growing up fast!

And any chance that Ethan gets, he is in the sand box. He loves digging with the mighty machines and getting dirty, like little boys tend to do so often!

birthday post

For Ethan and my birthday party pictures, check out my sisters blog: http://danielle-godislove.blogspot.com/2009/04/happy-2nd-birthday-sweet-ethan0.html

Unfortunately, our camera's battery was charging and wasn't ready for taking pictures.

Wordless Wednesday

finally another post!

Sorry about the lack of blogging! I still like to blog and will be keeping it. Things have been crazy busy in our household! So enjoy!

I absolutely love the look of our kitchen!

Seth bought a pair of "cool" glasses at Play Store in JK. He walked around the house with is eyes closed because he couldn't see well without his glasses (the above picture). But once he found his glasses, it was all good! (the picture below)

And the pictues below are from Ethan's 2nd Birthday which he celebrated on Sunday.

Opening his gifts of books, DVD's and airplanes

Seth had the flu that day so here he is celebrating with Ethan, but not feeling or looking very well. He was sick for 3 days, and is finally feeling better.

Ethan does this funny look with his eyes, but it is so hard to get it in a picture, so this is as best as I could get it. He rolls his eyes and has this cute look.

having a cupcake, while eating it, he kept saying, "mmm...good"

Our sweet baby is 2 now. Oh, how the time goes by so quickly. And he is not really much of a baby anymore. Although I will probably think him as my baby, until God grants us another baby. He is a funny, mischievous, sweet little boy, but he can be very stubborn. He is a joy to all our lives and we can't imagine what it would be like without him.
