Someone once told me that the Lord said make a joyful noise - he never said it had to be pretty. Our Kaity Bug is making quite the joyful noise :-)

This and That
Time is just flying by. Today Christine is 11 months old! I better get going on those birthday parties!
Christine has been changing a lot lately. She now has 5 teeth, and her verbal communication is improving. When she wants more of something, she says, "mow" and has started saying nanananana for bananas, and some other things too :-) Whenever she sees her Daddy she becomes so excited - she squeals, kicks her feet, and shouts, "Da! ah dada" Then reaches out for him. Our girls adore Sean. Well, the feeling is mutual. Christine isn't walking yet (phew) but is quite the climber. Yesterday I caught her with her knee on her high chair tray attempting another great escape in the minute I took to take the trash out. She's close to figuring out the whole walking thing, but I am content to wait.
Miss Kaitlyn is amazing us with everything she learns. She is beginning to identify the beginning letter of words by sound. That's a pretty advanced skill for her age. She also applies the Bible stories from preschool and sunday school to her imaginative play, and sometimes conversations with us. The other day, I asked her to put her plate on the counter. She said she was too busy, like Martha. (Luke 10:38 - 42) She also said the bath water was oil as she poured it over her feet, then Christine's. It's so amazing to see her grow in God's word. What a blessing the programs have been here.
We are starting to think about moving back as well, so things are a little nuts. Right now we're just waiting to find out where I'll be working, and what apartment we'll live in. We decided to live on campus for our final year.
Well, time for bed now!
