To celebrate Nate's birthday we began a new family tradition: twinkie cake. Yep....a cake made purely of twinkies (18ish), whip cream and strawberries. Wow. It was so yummy. So, we had fun celebrating with a homemade steak dinner and cake.
Mattias'(his mom, Diana, watches Faith) first birthday party was this past Saturday. As you can see by the pics below, he also enjoyed his cake :) It was icecream which he loves. Faith had so much fun playing with him and all the other kids. She gets really excited when she sees other babies/toddlers. To express her excitement she shrieks. And I'm not exaggerating...it really is a shriek. It's pretty cute unless you happen to be holding her : ) Then it's still cute, but a little painful :)
Faith continues to move around more each day. She's now getting op on her knees and rocking a little bit. She can "crawl"/slide backwards, and she keeps working on forward. Regardless, she pretty much finds a way to get to where she wants to go....we're in the process of baby-proofing.
Nate has parent teacher conferences soon, so he's getting ready for that--putting files together and all that fun stuff :) My practicum is going well. I'm really enjoying hospice, and could see myself doing it after I graduate which is exciting. It's good to really be able to spend time with people at a hard time in their life.
Otherwise we enjoyed the warm weather yesterday and not so much the rain today :) We hope you're all doing well!!!!

Did we mention he loves icecream? Notice the spot on the floor where he dropped a little :)

She's a free bird! And...who knew socks could be so much fun?
Awww...Faith and daddy taking a nap. Her top teeth are coming in and it's a painful process for her.
