Can you sleep standing up?

Case can!!

He was upstairs in the playroom playing with his tractors and watching "All about John Deere" when I thought it sure was too quiet for him... So, I decided I needed to run up and check up on him only to find him sleeping standing up behind the couch cushion!!


Of course I ran to get my camera, snapped a few pictures for the Kodak moment, then laid him down on the couch to sleep comfortably. Case has fallen asleep in odd places before...but never standing up!!


Isn't this just too cute?

Bubbles of FUN

Well I guess you can tell from the pictures that Case added just a wee bit to much bubble bath!!

But he had tons of fun playing in the tub with the outcome-bubbles galore!! Of course we laughed and laughed watching him have so much FUN!!

BTW...This is the first time that he recognized that his fingers get wrinkled when stays in the water for too LONG!! That was fun explaining that predicament after he inquisitively asks "what happen to my singers (fingers)?"

Truly Thankful...and Truly Blessed!!

Case is growing up so FAST!!

I often wonder where the time has gone...it seems like just yesterday we brought his tiny little newborn self home!! I look back at pictures from that wonderful time in our lives and it reminds me how truly blessed we are!! There are times I have to make myself remember our life before him. Case has a way of wrapping his heart around yours. He is just so darn LOVEABLE!! He has always had such a wonderful personality and dispostion. There is not a person we have yet to encounter that doesn't notice how loving of a child he is. It makes me proud to know that he has blessed so many people with his smiles, his hugs and his kisses!!

As Thanksgiving quickly approaches, this time of year gets more and more special to me. I guess I am getting a little sentimental in my "old" age, but I really think that life could not get much better than this!! Trace and I have so much to truly be thankful for...our faith, our families, our health, our jobs...but most of all CASE!!

You see...God truly answered our prayers by blessing us with Case and without J and J's love and sacrifice, Case would not be a part of our lives and we could not enjoy the wondeful blessing of being his parents!!

So for that we are truly thankful, and because of it we are truly BLESSED!!
