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.

Silas is 1!!

Chris' older brother and his wife Ping have an adorable son who just turned one! This week we got to celebrate at his birthday party plus we got to have him over to play one morning. We also found out this week that Ping's mom got a visa and will be able to visit from China for the birth of their second child in a couple months! An exciting week for that branch of the family and we're thrilled for them :-) Bring on cousin #4!

Each object represents a career and whatever Silas plays with the longest will be his career! The results: an athlete! He really might be an NBA star if he takes after his dad's height-he already weighs only 3lbs less than Ella and they are THREE years apart in age!!

Believe it or not, this was the best pic from our playdate :-)

Isn't he adorable??
