Updated Aine Pictures - She's Truly a Toddler Now

You'll notice that alot of the pictures we take of Aine are when she is sitting in her chair. This isn't really because she is eating all the time, but because this is the only time we can get her to sit still long enough for a picture. :)




We got free "longboard" popsicles with our dinner from Costa Vida and we silly parents decided to let Aine eat her whole popsicle by herself. This picture doesn't quite do it justice because she had already taken and eaten a big bite out of it before we could get this shot. By the time she was done eating it her hands were all red and she was shaking. I don't know if that was from all the sugar or because she was cold. I threw her straight into a nice warm bath and the shakes stopped. But she was running around like crazy after the bath. *Sigh*
Aine loves the phone and she has started to say more understandable words and phrases. Just this week she has transitioned from saying "Hi" to "Hel-l-lo".

Notice the scratches and bruises. Aine is still playing harder than her poor little 18 month old body should have to take. When they told me we are having a baby boy I thought, "You know, having a boy can't be rougher than Aine." But maybe that's just asking for trouble! :) We love you Aine, you are more entertaining than anything else!

God is Good

Spencer has began his internship with Miller Motor Sports Park that will give him some experience in his field. It will also give him the hours he will need to graduate with his associates degree next spring. Today, I received the go ahead to be able to do most of my job from home when I go on maternity leave. So, we may actually financially make it through my leave. We'll see how juggling everything goes. One thing I know for sure is that God's hands were in all of this and I've got to trust that He will help to make everything else okay.
