More pictures from my new camera.

2 Beautiful Boys!

I have been playing around with my new camera ( today) ,I just got for my birthday. I took Siah and Joel outside to test it and try to figure it out. I call these the solomn pictures. I love pictures of a child when they are in their natural expressions. It shows off their beautiful faces.
Here are Siah's:

Not that happy to be taking pictures at all!

Now that is a sweet face!

"Come On Mom!!!"

"Ok maybe one sorta smile but that is it!"

Now Joel:

Isn't that a sweet face!!!!!!!This boy always wants his picture made...

And its hard for him not to smile!

What do you all think about my new camera? I have plenty more kids to try it out on so stay tuned......

Look what I found in my laundry room. Lilee was looking for our baby bunnies in our yard. She is balancing on a 1 inch piece of plastic. EEEK!

My mom is back in the hospital again !

Her body is rejecting all the wires in her chest from her by-pass back in April. She still had 6-8 wires that they removed today. She is allergic to the wires that are made from stanless steel.
She will be in the hospital until Wed at least with a vac put back in her chest , once they get the infection out then they might be able to sew her back up. Please keep praying for her!! And that she can get medical help with all these bills, since she has no insurance. This is the 4th hosptial stay since April.

New post on my ministry blog!

Happy 11 Months Lilee!

Lilee has been home with us 11 months today!

Wordless Wednesday!

Update on my mom!

She got out of the hospital today. They are letting her incision heal from the inside out so her chest is still open. Please pray this will fix her this time so she can start healing and getting better.
