Jonathan with the pastors who attended. Our nephew Wyatt carried the cross. My dad (on left) participated. Jonathan's grandma and mom embroidered his stole. I think they did an amazing job!<br />

Islwyn's class went on the last field trip of the year. I got to go along. We walked over to the Botanical Gardens to see the butterfly exhibit. Islwyn loved trying to get butterflies on his finger. You have grown up so much this year Islwyn. 1st grade is just around the corner!</div>

At the Fort Wayne Zoo an entire section of the zoo is called "The Australian Adventure." Here are Amund and Elijah. We found where we will be living on the map. Kind of to the left of where Amund is standing. The climate is classified as semi-arid. Average highs range from 56-87 (depending on winter or summer) and average lows range from 37-54.<br />

We still have a lot to do. And we still don't know when we will be moving. We have to wait on our visa and then get everything packed up and shipped over. I'll try and be better about updating what is going on with us.</div>

He goes straight to the most dangerous spot in the house or outside as quickly as possible. He loves getting into the bathroom and playing in the toilet....so we have to keep the door closed at all times. He also goes straight for the steps so we have keep the gate up at all times. His other favorite thing to do is play with dada's stereo by pulling all the knobs off. When we go outside he crawls as fast as he can down the sidewalk. He is also just figuring out how to walk. Once he is steady on his feet we're going to be in for even more trouble I think. <br />

I haven't been super great about posting stuff lately. So I wanted to catch up.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
One day Jonathan took Islwyn and Amund to the zoo. I guess they really liked the turtle.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-DE7qRYNZHpQ/T6VFxbgQs4I/AAAAAAAAEzU/eOnRaax8nUo/s1600/IMG_0236.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-DE7qRYNZHpQ/T6VFxbgQs4I/AAAAAAAAEzU/eOnRaax8nUo/s320/IMG_0236.jpg" width="240" /></a></div>
Here's Elijah showing off his cool new shirt some special friends made for him.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

All the boys in bed together one night. Hmmmm.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Amund really likes going to this grocery store with me because he gets to push the cart around himself. He is such a good helper.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-4wfisC61u0E/T6VGBoazgdI/AAAAAAAAEzs/gCMVtY95sGo/s1600/IMG_0247.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-4wfisC61u0E/T6VGBoazgdI/AAAAAAAAEzs/gCMVtY95sGo/s320/IMG_0247.jpg" width="240" /></a></div>
We never thought this day would come! That Islwyn would ride his bike. He rides it all the time now.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-BRyyGSO0ykA/T6VGLyF-EpI/AAAAAAAAEz0/XX4VE9HhKN4/s1600/IMG_0248.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-BRyyGSO0ykA/T6VGLyF-EpI/AAAAAAAAEz0/XX4VE9HhKN4/s320/IMG_0248.jpg" width="240" /></a></div>
And the whole reason I had kids--so they could do the house work!! Just kidding. But Amund likes to mop and Islwyn likes to vacuum.<br />

I had to take some new pictures of the big boy Elijah who is 6 months old already. I can't believe it. He is over 16 pounds. Not bad --gaining 10 pounds in his first 6 months.<br />

He is getting so big these days. He has started sleeping in his own room too! He took his first airplane ride a couple of weeks ago and did great. He also can prop himself up really well when he is on his tummy, and when he is laying down he scoots himself all over the place. He has started really enjoying playing with his toys and loves looking at his hands.Sarahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05463715546449526804noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6328014924101074782.post-24086547106094119732012-01-20T07:45:00.000-08:002012-01-20T07:50:47.494-08:0060 degrees yesterday<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Rp2WI4ZUnuo/TxmNQ4sSuwI/AAAAAAAAEJc/Dk-473n2qbs/s1600/IMG_0054.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Rp2WI4ZUnuo/TxmNQ4sSuwI/AAAAAAAAEJc/Dk-473n2qbs/s400/IMG_0054.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5699742124649659138" /></a><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-2y0ePDmIg8Q/TxmNAHGsIrI/AAAAAAAAEJQ/9cVhoHBTjlE/s1600/IMG_0053.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-2y0ePDmIg8Q/TxmNAHGsIrI/AAAAAAAAEJQ/9cVhoHBTjlE/s400/IMG_0053.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5699741836460696242" /></a><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-za7YxqDscIw/TxmM_VyO6CI/AAAAAAAAEJE/fDZOqDcvr6M/s1600/IMG_0049.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-za7YxqDscIw/TxmM_VyO6CI/AAAAAAAAEJE/fDZOqDcvr6M/s400/IMG_0049.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5699741823221557282" /></a><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-XPxb18h0WA0/TxmM_D6wJCI/AAAAAAAAEI4/7_mAX3WNh48/s1600/IMG_0046.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-XPxb18h0WA0/TxmM_D6wJCI/AAAAAAAAEI4/7_mAX3WNh48/s400/IMG_0046.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5699741818425451554" /></a><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-R_UFNocEx8U/TxmM-rShJnI/AAAAAAAAEIs/9f7jBGsPPxY/s1600/IMG_0021.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-R_UFNocEx8U/TxmM-rShJnI/AAAAAAAAEIs/9f7jBGsPPxY/s400/IMG_0021.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5699741811814246002" /></a><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-_prpm1nr-a4/TxmM-YFcWZI/AAAAAAAAEIg/-ZeceNCM4v4/s1600/IMG_0004.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-_prpm1nr-a4/TxmM-YFcWZI/AAAAAAAAEIg/-ZeceNCM4v4/s400/IMG_0004.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5699741806659131794" /></a>Sarahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05463715546449526804noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6328014924101074782.post-84858697662204022582012-01-10T07:57:00.000-08:002012-01-10T07:58:00.380-08:00story time<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-lpuB6TuwNVo/Twxf-XrqfKI/AAAAAAAAEIQ/RAcrDDlbEIQ/s1600/DSC_0001.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-lpuB6TuwNVo/Twxf-XrqfKI/AAAAAAAAEIQ/RAcrDDlbEIQ/s400/DSC_0001.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5696033153830517922" /></a>Sarahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05463715546449526804noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6328014924101074782.post-12684281833358855222011-12-16T07:50:00.000-08:002011-12-16T07:53:08.854-08:00Christmas Stuff<div>The boys have hung their stockings by the chimney.</div><div><br /></div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-w3f6BpPta9c/TutpD1moj1I/AAAAAAAAEIA/_kuWOMm9RG8/s1600/DSC_0034.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 268px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-w3f6BpPta9c/TutpD1moj1I/AAAAAAAAEIA/_kuWOMm9RG8/s400/DSC_0034.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5686754469135028050" /></a>Islwyn during his Christmas program at school.
