Part of what I love about the girls' names is that they were both popular 100 years ago and many people with those names are now great-grandmas. Both names evoke a vision for me of sweet old ladies rocking away together on a porch. I pray Ella and Sadie will live meaningful lives full of love and will be enjoying each other on a front porch somewhere many years from now.

Random Happenings

I haven't blogged in a while due to random illnesses and busyness when i was feeling good. Here are some things that have been going on.

Ella "napping" with her rock from the strawberry patch. She STILL loves it!

We got a train table at a yard sale (with all the trains and tracks) for $20!!! They're $150 at the store! I love it when God provides, even little things!

We had a little flour mishap while making banana bread :-)

Ella is into dress-up lately.

Chris fixed the dishwasher! We joke about how we're not "fixers" we're "callers." We're not "growers" we're "buyers". So, we were extra proud of ourselves for fixing this with only a little help from the internet :-) And yes, he really did need the head lamp to do it.

Ella really likes doing puzzles and is getting really good at them, and apparently at putting pieces between her toes.

    I'm glad to hear there's another "caller" in our midst. We like to invite "fixers" over to visit us for long weekends, though.

    And funny, other friends of ours just found a train table at a yard sale and their 2 1/2 year old is in love with it!
