Happy St. Patrick's Day

A semester's worth of post updates are soon on their way but until then, here's today--
Jack has his pinching fingers ready for anyone NOT wearing green!! John already left for school before we took this picture, but you better believe he was wearing a green shirt as well :-)
Hailey (John's sister living with us) made us an AWESOME St. Patty's breakfast consisting of green waffles, green cool whip, and green milk. It was delicious :-)
Jonah's first steps!! He's been walking the past few days. The most he's done is 3... then he makes this face as he's falling!! He gets WAY too excited. His birthday is 2 weeks from today. I can NOT believe it's been an entire year. Where has time gone??


Jack of course is a BIG helper in Jonah's walking attempts.
Life is wonderful, we are happy and healthy and excited about graduation (but not about leaving Durham)! We are very blessed and have a lot to look forward to. I'm SO ready for spring to be here and have enjoyed playing baseball in the backyard with my boys on the few sunny days we have had. Simply stated: we live a charmed life :-)
