"Cereal" Killer

Welcome to solid foods, Josephine Marie.

Here's a few photos of our girl getting her first tastes of oatmeal cereal. I expected her to be shocked and reject it like her big brother....but she was loving it. She even reached for the bowl and pulled the spoon to her mouth - what a champ! Jack loved that Josie was eating cereal like him, but wasn't thrilled with sharing his highchair. Things are getting interesting around here......

Two by Two

Our lives can be told in a short story of twos.

In exactly 2 weeks, our little boy will be 2 years old!

We have been living in Grand Prairie in our little house for almost 2 years.

Our 2 little blessings, Jack and Jo, are 2 peas in a pod - making each other laugh like no one else can.

We have been serving at Grand Prairie Bible Church with an amazing family of believers for two sweet years.

So, today, on the 22nd day of the 2nd month, I thank God for our little family, our little house, and our sweet church.

Christmas in February

To celebrate Clif and Kat's (and baby Clay) Texas homecoming, the Kennedy and Davis families had Christmas in February! Mom and Dad prepared a huge steak dinner and we swapped gifts. What fun....hope Jack doesn't always expect 2 Christmases each year! Here a few photos from our time together.

Five Months of Jo-Jo

We celebrated Josie's 5-month birthday by dedicating her to the Lord this Sunday at church. It was so special to have her cousin Clay dedicated with her as well. Will spoke blessings upon both of them and Pastor Bill challenged and encouraged the church, family and friends to come alongside us as parents to raise these children in the ways of the Lord. Our prayer for Josie is that she will know Christ intimately at a young age and grow in the knowledge of Him all through her days.

She continues to bless us as she delights in her days. She is very sweet (most of the time) and loves her Mom and Dad. In fact, during her dedication, each time Will would say her name, she would beam at him. She is even more fond of her hands and toys this month, adding the exersaucer and Johnny Jump-up to her lineup of "stations." Some of her favorite things are her pink silky blanket, taking baths with Jack, rolling side to side, and being tickled. Some of her dislikes are antibiotics and strangers with loud voices!

We think our Jo-Jo fits perfectly into this family. Here are a few pics from her 5th month.

Mi casa es su casa

While the dads were away, the Davis and Starr families headed to Doc's farm for the weekend. Jack gave Ethan the tour of the cows, chickens, and dogs. Josie bundled up and loved watching the boys play. The moms enjoyed some fellowship, good food and scrapbooking. Thanks Doc and Mam for providing everyone's "home away from home."

Happy February!

Looks like someone is feeling better!
