When Nana Came to Town

Everett's Nana (my mom) flew in this weekend. It was so nice to see her and we had so much fun! Our weekend was full of shopping, eating, playing....Everett grows so fast, so I love showing our family his new "tricks" each time we get to visit. My mom left last night and I can't believe it but today Everett started to "army crawl." He is on his way to full on crawling! Also, he has a new facial expression where he wrinkles up his nose. We call it his "cheesy" grin. I have tried to capture it on camera, but you know how that goes. I will keep trying. Overall, a very fun weekend.
On a very different note, please join me in praying for the Mcclenahan family. I love reading blogs and I ran across this blog tonight that really touched my heart. This family just yesterday lost their 10 month old daughter to cancer. She was diagnosed just 3 weeks ago. As I read their story I was blessed by their testimony and their incredible faith in the Lord. I cried over what they are going through right now and it made me truly appreciate the little life that is sleeping in the room next door. In fact, I snuck into Everett's room just to look at him sleeping in his crib. It is so easy to take life for granted. He gives and He takes away. Blessed be His name. Everett with his Nana

This is by far to date the cutest picture of Eric and Ev.
