Karate Kid

This was taken February 11th, right after Noah passes his yellow belt karate test! This is a serious picture but he was all smiles in the car on the way home. Congratulations Noah!!

Happy Boy

This is how VJ looks most days when he is having fun. It's often hard to catch it on camera though! He happens to be watching a light on the camera while Daddy is taking pictures.

VJ is almost 21 months, and needless to say, has plenty of teeth!

Roller Skating!

Katy had her guitar recital/rollerskating party last Monday night. Katy played The First Noel beautifully, and Raf video taped it, but he thinks it's to long to post... Anyways, this was to be the Christmas recital(obviously) but a little late due to scheduling problems. I think it was an awesome idea to have it at a skating rink! Katy and Noah had a blast skating while I chased VJ around on the sidelines. The photo of VJ in the stroller was only so I could feed him some pizza. The rest of the time he was running around. You might be able to tell where he bumped his head last week, and on the day of the skate he bumped his lip at home. He didn't get any bumps at the skating rink but he does have pizza and chocolate chip cookie crumbs on his face!

All the kids slept well that night! And, don't tell VJ, but next year he won't be going to the recital/skate. I'm leaving him with a sitter so I can skate.

Recent Cute One Liners from Katy and Noah

Here are some recent precious sayings from our dear Katy and Noah:

"Time flies when you're in your own imagination!" - Katy

"What is sin? Sin is a lack of confederacy to or transgression of the law of God." - Katy
(This is one of the questions in the Westminster Catechism, which is a summary of what the Bible teaches. The correct answer to the above question is, "Sin is a lack of conformity to or transgression of the law of God.")

"I am brown for the promised land." - Noah
(This is his understanding of a song entitled, "I am bound for the promised land.")

"I understand what he's saying but I can't get the hang of it." - Noah
(Noah here is talking about one of our church pastor's sermons!)

Aren't kids precious?
