If anything important happens, I find out about it. <br />I've got too much other stuff going on to keep me sidetracked as it is... I don't need to find time to check fb too. :-)<br /><br />Such great photos...and so very much to be thankful for. <br /><br />Blessings to you~Lori N from MNhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04613550121245331000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7056332983367489033.post-38697096690063908592012-07-28T17:17:08.074-05:002012-07-28T17:17:08.074-05:00So much to be thankful for, thanks for sharing!!! ...So much to be thankful for, thanks for sharing!!!

He has still only lost one baby tooth, but that's because he grinds his teeth into his head. He has some pretty major developmental issues that are an everyday challenge for us, but God blessed us with a special child because he knew we could handle it! I have to remember that during these awful potty training days...lol.Scoobyloves2004https://www.blogger.com/profile/03282484197204359911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7056332983367489033.post-88499790958464629472012-07-27T11:28:28.867-05:002012-07-27T11:28:28.867-05:00LOL, mine isn't until 2016, but that's not...LOL, mine isn't until 2016, but that's not too far away, gosh I feel old.

Yes, Simeon likes to grab the spoon, he really doesn't eat more than like 3-4 bites though...I keep telling myself, he's got a tiny tummy...the others ate so much more!<br /><br />The 2nd part of the Baptism is done because it's a public thing, bringing a child into the church community....it was beautiful and done throughout the whole Mass. It included the part where the priest blesses him with the beautiful smelling prism oil....<br /><br />The mailman gave the kiddos like 4 bucks and filled a big jug he had with him and said if he had more cash he would have given them more...nice guy! The girls were like "he wouldn't take it for free!" Those construction workers, how inspirational!! I'm sure that made their day for sure!! I read a long time ago, somewhere that if you see a child's lemonade stand to always stop. I agree!<br /><br />God bless you too!Jamie Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17678469484585027738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7056332983367489033.post-20464718253891291772012-07-27T10:00:03.643-05:002012-07-27T10:00:03.643-05:00Oh, Odie, you always make me smile!

When he had his first steps eval they told me he was a little late and if he didn't sit up by 9 months they'd give him a pt session once a week. One day it just clicked and then he was crawling and he walked at 13 months! Now he climbs on everything ;)Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08146718549061898275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7056332983367489033.post-16245001011879015562012-07-27T08:59:15.769-05:002012-07-27T08:59:15.769-05:00So so much to be thankful for. !!

I didn't know there was a second part of the baptism when a child is baptized in an emergency, but how wonderful! it must have been a beautiful event--Love Simeon's baptism dress! the last photo really shows the beauty of Simeon's eyes (beautiful blue like his momma's). oh I just joined facebook too, I think in June. You're right: it's just one more thing to take us away from Our Lord's purposes for us in life. I have been staying away from it (I actually love blogging much better than facebooking). I definitely would have stopped at your children's lemonade stand! it's something ya gotta do! we had one in our neighborhood a couple months ago, and there was a house being built down the street and the construction workers all stopped for the little boys' stand, and tried their lemonade, and one gave him a $10 bill. oh he was so happy. It's a little things that can make a child's day! Happy birthday to your Rosie and to your grandmother -- how truly wonderful that your children know their great grandmother.
