Charlie's First Mohawk!





He's Reaching!


We have to make sure that all items are out of Charlie's reach now. He has thrown his sippy cup to the wayside a couple of times. Feeding times have proven to be a battle zone trying to maintain Charlie's attention. He spends the entire time looking around and seeing what he can get into. If he's not looking as far away as possible, his little hands are reaching as far as possible for whatever is available! Our little man just keeps on growing and growing.

Where Everybody Knows Your Name

Every now and then, my husband and I will splurge and eat at the Hickory Inn. We look forward to these evenings. During previous jobs when I would have a moment of being so stressed, I longed to be a waitress in a small café. I day dreamt of knowing every costumers name and them knowing mine as well. We would chat about the happenings in our lives. I would stand with my apron on, my hair pulled back and pad and pen in my hand. I would wave my pen around as I shared in the conversation. After taking their order, I would smile and get back to work. The bells would ring on the door as another customer walked in. Everyone would take a brief moment to pause and see who their next friend was to arrive. Then, the conversations would resume.
During our recent outing, I took a moment to smile to myself. As my family and I walked through the door of the Hickory Inn, everyone took a brief moment to pause and see who we were. We greeted each other with a smile. We sat at a large table and soon two ladies joined us. My heart was warmed with their company. Soon others would sit near us and we would all join in each other’s conversations. We took turns chatting about the happenings in our lives. Sound familiar?
During our meal, I realized I was partaking in another Vega treasure. I was in the comfort of people who cared about my life. They took turns adoring our son, sharing their plans for the weekend, and listening to ours as well. Our Creator designed us to enjoy fellowship with others. After all, who doesn’t want to be where everybody knows your name?

I love these prints!


Charlie loves being held up to the mirror and patting it with his hands. He gets so excited. I grabbed the windex today to clean our mirror, but I couldn't bring myself to get rid of these precious prints!

A Good Snow!

Rosy Cheeks!


Our little one has had a case of the coughs and sniffles this week. I took him to the doctor just for extra measure. They said our home treatment was right and gave us some baby cough medicine for prn use. It sure has helped him sleep better at night. He never ran a fever, but his little cheeks sure got rosy!

Strapped In!



After finding Charlie in his bouncer like this, we ALWAYS strap him in now!


Cute PJ's

I chose this slideshow because it is snowing here again. Not too much though. We welcome any kind of precipitation! We are warm and cozy in our home. Thank you Lord for providing for us!

Bug's Blessing

Though the mountains be shaken and the hills be removed, yet my unfailing love for you will not be shaken..." Isaiah 54:10

I pray that in this ever changing world, when promises are broken and plans fall through, you will take comfort in these words. Our Father's love for us is greater than anything we could imagine. No matter what we do, He is waiting, cheering us on to make the right choices that will lead us nestled in His great care.

Don't bee afraid, honey, God is with you!
