Our Amazing Creator

One of the things that amazes me each time we have a child is what they are born with. They are all born with a sin nature (Psalm 51). As much as I hate to admit it, each one of my "angels" sin pretty much from the get-go. They are selfish and not once have I had to teach them to say "NO" when they don't get their way. Another thing that amazes me is the way each one has been uniquely knit together (Psalm 139)!From their eyes and hair to their completely different personalities. It has been a joy to see how different our children look and act form each other. We NEVER would have guessed we would have two blue-eyed children! Our God is SO creative!! The thing that caused amazement for me once again this morning though, was how early our boys acted like boys and our girls acted like girls. I always say Caleb was born with a ball in his hand! Jake has pushed a car and made noises with it before he could walk. Aly, well there's no doubt she's ALL girl. And Anna has loved shoes since she started moving around. This morning our youngest "mommy" was taking care of her baby and I watched in wonder as she lovingly carried her baby and talked to her in a sweet voice and changed her diaper. How early they start modelling the roles God has set up for them.

If you listen closely at the beginning, Anna says "changey diapey." :)

Cock-a-doodle-doo!!!

Jake has made quite a bit of progress in his speech. He still speaks his own language, but it's getting to be a little less of that and a little more of English. He really enjoys playing with his farm animals and has learned several of their names. I especially like how he says rooster.

One of our January highlights was getting to see our very good friends, the Hulls (we missed Jordan) and the Ogdens!! They came from Missouri to spend some time with us! We have been so blessed by our relationship with them. This time, we were especially excited to see sweet baby Landry. We hadn't seen him since right after he was born, in the hospital, so he had really changed!

Thanks so much for coming!! Thanks so much for EVERYTHING!!! We love you!

Hello Again

Wow. It's been a while since I've written. I guess you could say I've been suffering from a bit of "blogger's block." I haven't even taken any pictures this month. I kept waiting for a good snow (since it was the month of January) and one never came!! In fact we have been having 70 degree weather here lately!! Not my idea of winter weather but the kids sure have enjoyed playing outside. Soooo I guess it's time to catch you up a little in the life of the Lamberts. I will have to write bits at a time, but I will try to be better about updating.
