Gifts

When Jackson opened his birthday card from Great Grandma Mathusek he pulled out the money and said "this is my cash."

He LOVED his baseball cards (my home is now covered with them)! He was so excited to have them - thanks Fagersten Uncles and Grandparents.

Jackson loves presents and he enjoyed looking for his hidden presents. He wants to wear his cars swim trunks now.

Lindsay talking with Bishop Volk

Lindsay and Bishop are talking about Jackson's superman coloring book. There are other conversations going on (sorry). Lindsay and Jackson love Bishop Volk and Sister Volk, and Megan and Jacob (Lindsay has even called Jake before). Bishop Volk reminds me of how my dad is with the kids - he just plays with them. The Lord fills the 'gap' of distance with other wonderful people - thank you Volk Family!

Jackson turned 4

We celebrated Jackson's birthday with our friends the Volks and the Websters. Jackson asked for both families to be there. We all had a great time!! Thank you Volk family for supplying the home!

Funny things they say and do...

The other day we were eating dinner together and Lindsay kept saying something and we didn’t understand what she was saying. I asked her, ‘did you say, I have boogers’ and Jackson without missing a beat said, ‘she said, bob the builder.’

Lindsay loves to sing. Her latest song has been “Oh Tom the Toad.” You can’t help but smile every time you hear it out of her little voice.

We had just finished breakfast and Jackson was asking for a snack so I told him our ‘plan’ for the day, “ here’s the plan, we are going to get dressed, play and then we’ll have a snack.” He looked and me and said, “Oh, mom, that just breaks my heart.” He then proceeded to go off and get dressed, play and then have his snack.

Lindsay goes to the bathroom most of the time in the potty. If she doesn’t I find diapers all over the house that she has taken off after going one time.

The cutest kids in Maryland


These are pictures from the fall but I thought they were really cute.
Jackson looks the same, Lindsay has more hair now.
