Happy 9th Birthday, Bud-bud!

A lot of catching up to do, so let me start with the main event of today... who knew that Jordan would be born on a Wednesday night during a blizzard, two and one half months before he was supposed to arrive? Certainly not Dr. Leland or myself, especially after I had just been in to see him that morning, and, given that Jordan had tried to come six weeks before, we both were thrilled with the thought that Jordan had settled down for the final ten weeks. I guess he couldn't wait for Christmas!

I decided to post only more current pictures of him, because I still get misty eyed looking at how tiny he was in the past. Today, he's just a busy, talkative boy, who plays video games, gets on his brother's nerves, and is one of the biggest lights in our family.

WE LOVE YOU, BUDDERS!

HAPPY 24TH BIRTHDAY, BUG!

Happy birthday to our 'resident drama queen,' also known as 'Hurricane Lauren.' Chris named her that years ago, due to her ability to dramatically blow into a room, usually greeting us with "You'll never BELIEVE what happened!" We love you, Yah-Yah!

Harley Man!

Our next door neighbor has a 'really awesome' (Jordan's words) Harley Davidson, and he asked Jordan today if he'd like to sit on it for a minute. After asking me with a grin that stretched from ear to shining ear, Mr. Don helped him on, and showed him everything on it. Jordan obviously liked it -- A LOT!

Check this out!!!!!!

HAPPY 21ST BIRTHDAY, PEANUT!!

Lena was born on an extremely hot day during a record hot summer. She entered this world with a couple of health issues, and God miraculously healed them. Our little "Peanut" is the tallest female in our family (not that she had far to go)!

Good thing I watch the noon news...

They gave a heads-up early in the newscast about the once-a-century time/date alignment. I was able to take this picture and send it to Jordan's siblings, as well as the news station (Channel 7). Maybe they'll show it on the later newscast... who knows??

Two Tiny Tigers!

(I guess two posts in one evening means I'm making up for way lost time...) This morning, Keith Hafner's Karate (Chris' karate school) held its annual 'Tiny Tigers' class, an introduction VERY basic karate, for kids ages three to eight. Jordan attended last year, and again today. Also in attendance was my niece Zarinne, who totally enjoyed herself. They got cool t-shirts, headbands, and a certificate, as well as learned a basic stance, block, kick, and punch. They finished it off with a cute obstacle course, and met Leonard, the KHK school mascot. We are so thankful for the time that the staff puts into this, and for Master Terry for his love and patience in working with young children.

Exploration Station

On Thursday, April 23, our church Friday School group went to the Health Exploration Station at St. Joseph Mercy Health System's Canton Center. The kids and adults had a great time learning about the different ways our bodies work. The human body has to be one of God's most magnificent and complex creations!

HAPPY 14TH BIRTHDAY, OOGIE!

Got things back up just in time to post some pictures for 'Bruce Lee-Roy's' birthday. Chris, just when you have us thinking that you are extremely deep for your age, you give us a sense of joy and relief by doing something goofy, dorky, and totally 'Chris-like.' We love you! Thank you for being who you are,whoever that is :)
