A visit from Tia Veronica


We enjoyed a visit with Tia Veronica. He's 4 months November 20th and he's weighing in a hearty 18lb. 6 ounces last week. (He's currently off the charts on both weight and height!) I thank God for his health. We've been praying all along that God will make him strong in mind and body and He's definitely answered that prayer. Pastor Rick and Diane gave us a Toddlers Bible for him that he's already started enjoying.

Baby Buddy Times



Nothing like having a baby...and then enjoying friends who have babies too! Amy and her daughter Shaylee Rose are on the left, Gretchen and her daughter Aylaa are on the right. Phoenix is outnumbered by girls...but as you can tell; I don't think he minds.

Reading time with "Uncle" Tim


Already beginning his University level education Phoenix reviews current artwork with Uncle (and Professor!) Tim.

brought to you by Abuela Nini




Abuela (Grandma) Nini has introduced Phoenix to a whole new world of exersaucer's and toy cars! Phoenix has been hilarious to watch as he studies his new toys...his drool and stare shows onlookers how very serious he is about playing!
