A random post

Hello all!!! Have I mentioned how much I love Saturdays? We made it through the first week without having help here and though it was stressful, we survived. Somehow it's possible to survive if you sleep in by the end of the week!!!

So...as for your update on Peaches (Gabrielle), she has gained a pound and a half and has grown half an inch! Yes, she is starting to get a little bit chubbier:) That's a good thing Bri:) (another nickname for Gabrielle). So, you are in fact wondering where in the world the name "Peaches" came from. Noah actually was the mastermind behind this great name:D He felt her head and decided it was like a peach(fuzzy and round I guess). So...now we like to call her Peaches every once in a while. Oh, and she smiled the other day!!! At Mom! No one else saw it so as to whether it was a real smile, well we don't know. God knows, though. As He does about every little detail. He is so amazing!

So I have found my new two favorite songs. The first is "What do I know of holy" by Addison Road and the second is "The house you're building" by Audrey Assaud. I think that's how you spell her last name. Anyway, I've listened to them a countless number of times on my ipod. Well, maybe not countless, but you know what I mean. Especially those of you who know how much I listen to a song when I like it. My poor friends are always forced to listen to my favorite songs:)

Well, school is going great! I am having so much fun! I say that on a day there is no school:) Kidding, I really am enjoying school.

Love,
Alex

New Camera!!!

Hello everyone!!! Aren't Saturdays wonderful? After a week of school especially:)

So, as the title of this post states, I have a new camera!!! The latter one was broken. I would show you pictures from my new camera if I actually made the time to download them!

Gabrielle is doing great! She grows cuter each and every day! There are so many babies being born now! We just heard our dear friends' blessing arrived not too long ago!!!
Well, that all for now folks!LOL

Love,
Alex

What a blessing!!!

Hello all!!! School went well today. We discovered we need a better map (after the frustration with my geography today):)

I was delighted to see a brand new follower of my blog! I'm always happy to know people are reading my blog!!! Even though it was off to a rocky start!!!

I'd just like to say what a blessing Gran and Papa have been being here! I don't know what we would do without them! They have been such a big help with the laundry, cooking, cleaning, little boys, etc. Thank y'all so much!!! Also, to all the wonderful people who have brought meals!!! Thank you so much!!!

Presley just came in telling me how spectacular his first essay will be. Well at least he's confident in his first essay:D I, for one, am not excited to write about "My Many Virtues". But I'm reminded that "I can do all things through Him who strengthens me" (Phil. 4:13)

Well, lots of fun stuff awaits me to do around this wonderful house. I feel so blessed to have such a wonderful amazing family with fun, loving brothers and God-fearing, loving parents! Oh, and the best sister on the face of the earth!!!

School is back

Hello all!!! Well, the school year has started up again. It's going pretty well I guess. I'm enjoying it. We're getting back into all of our outside of the home activities also. But it seems like getting back into the school year makes me more frustrated than anything (my gosh, besides hitting the wrong keys, good grief!!!) I thought I'd give you one of my favorite verses for dealing with frustration.


"Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God."
-Hebrews 12:1-2


I like to read that verse when I'm frustrated because it reminds me to keep going and look unto Jesus. Somehow when I read that I can get through the day much easier:) Especially school. Thinking of the end result:D

Well, the boys are waiting very patiently for me to come play with them. I feel so loved:)

Sweet girl. Can you believe she's already here? Seems like yesterday mom and Dad told us mom was going to have a baby!!! I prayed for so long for a sister, and now she's here!!! She's the best sister I could ever ask for!!!




Joshua, isn't this great? She's home! What did you say? He's trying to tell me something...



Oh, I see! Thanks for telling me. Pizza!!! A good way to celebrate, no?



Beautiful flowers. Gran was so sweet to get these on her trip to the store!!!



Welcome home baby girl!!!

Thank you all for waiting so patiently for me to get pictures on here!!! I think it's the fastest I've ever gotten pictures on from an event!!! Well, bye for now. I assure you, there will be more pictures. A lot more.
