Peanut Butter Birdseed Feeder

Dipping in the birdseed box

Doesn't he look so proud.


Getting ready to put it on the fence.









Noah got birdseed all in the peanut butter jar, so this is designated as the birds' peanut butter from now on.

Making another one. He gets so w excited now anytime the toliet paper, or paper towel rolls are almost finished. He knows he gets to make another one.

Just playing now.

Sometimes when it rains we are at a loss as to what to do. We can not play outside (well techinically we could as I was reminded by some friends, to let them get dirty and play in the rain/ although this is a stretch for this Momma who doesn't really like dirt), and I really didn't want to let Noah watch TV all day. So I asked for suggestions. And this idea was my favorite. One because Noah loves feeding the birds and refilling the bird feeders we have anyway. I tell him that God uses us to feed the birds, it reminds me of that verse:

Look at the birds of the air, that they do not sow, nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not worth much more than they?
Matthew 6:25-27

And when he looks out the window and sees them eating he says "Thank you Noah." That is what I tell him the birds are thinking as they eat their lunch. I love how the Lord provides for the birds and for us daily. This afternoon, the sun came out, we got to making bird feeders, after they were set out Noah played in the yard, Luke in his exersaucer (nawing away), and Momma got to soak up the warmth of the sun after the storm and take some pictures. Today was a good day.

Looking good

I love Sunday mornings where I can dress Luke in his cute clothes and see the little gentleman that he is growing to be. He bucks at the idea of putting on shoes but is sure wanting to stand up and have you hold him these days. I just love a sweater vest on a baby boy. Especially mine.

Friday at the Park

Jan 21 2012

We spent the morning at park with our boys letting them play and soaking up the time that we get to spend together. I love these moments in life when you can not think of anything better. I love these boys that God has given me and am so proud to be their Momma.

Home from school for Christmas, Jeremy finally had to go back. He has one more year until he graduates from Grad School. We sure do miss him while he his gone though. But I think Noah misses him the most. He loves playing with his Uncle J.

6 month shots :(

Luke's 6 month appt went well. He was so much more active that the last time he went. He was sitting up well and found that the paper was his best friend. He measured 17 1/2 lbs. (43rd %), 28 inches (89th %), and head circumference 17 inches (78th %). He has now had rice cereal, sweet potatoes, avacado, banana, carrots, peaches, pears, butternut squash, yogurt, and well if there is anything else I can not remember right now. He has no teeth as of now, but I suspect they are coming soon. He can stand beside a toy and hold on to play for 10 or so minutes, sit and play, but has not rolled over from his back to stomach yet (it is like he just skipped that step), he loves to jump in his door way jumper, is pretty tired of his exersaucer, but love to be outside ( I can not wait for warmer weather/ sit out on a blanket in the yard weather/ strolling weather). Poor guy got 4 shots today. The nurse pretty much lit him up. He just cried silently and we ended up having to blow in his face so he would take a breath. He is never the less sore today but is pretty happy considering.

After we drove in from AR. We hurriedly went outside to the backyard to enjoy the Fabulous weather and spend a little out of the car time until we had to get back in the car and head to small group. I just love when my Drew loves on my Luke
