What happens in our day?

Shoes! We must put on our shoes first!

Ruthanne put the one shoe on all by herself! One problem - wrong foot! Then she tried putting a different shoe on the other. Mommy came to the rescue! Good try though!

Daddy taking pictures of me right away in the morning! Sleep is a necessary part of our day!

Smiling! We enjoy laughter. There is a lot of it around here! How can we not be happy! God takes care of us in sooo many ways!

One more smiley picture of Nathan!

Playtime! Playing outside is a highlight in Ruthanne's daily routine! She is off to play with her ball!

Nathan is scooting around while breakfast is getting ready!

Daddy is helping! He is cutting up the grapefruit! Thank you! Mommy loves Daddy's help. He is an excellent helper!

Transporting Brother!

 

Ruthanne was "helping Mommy" by bringing Nathan over for a diaper change. He really enjoyed it! 

Another Haircut!

Ruthanne's second haircut in her life!

Nathan is amused by the event!

No more hair in my eyes! Hurray!

Hi! Hopefully it is not too short!

Here is the back!

The Church Hospital

Ruthanne was playing "hospital" with her new friends last Saturday. They played this almost all morning. Do you need helpers Auntie Lydia?

David, Tirzah, and Acarith take care of the only patient. While Nurse Ruthanne surveys the patients rooms.

This is "Dr." Hardy.

Friends

We made it to Arizona!

Just a glance at one of the many beautiful views in Arizona.

 We live in Verde valley (meaning "green") which is surrounded by mountains!

Rimrock has a nice little park that is in the shade! This slide is steep and tall!

After going up with Daddy and Mommy about 5 times, Ruthanne was going up and down all by herself!

Nathan really enjoys slides too!

Daddy enjoyed "shocking" Mommy every time he landed!

Let's do it again!

She went all by herself with no help!

Brother and Sister time! This is the swing set by the church in Cottonwood which is where we are staying (in the prophet's chamber). We are staying for a couple weeks here.

Ruthanne already found a friend her age to play with.

She enjoyed the play-do from Grandma Sondergaard! Thank you!

Nathan has the whole fellowship hall to scoot around on! All of his onesies get black spots on the front! Lots of laundry.

Goodbye for now, Dear Family!

A big thank you to Dad and Mom Sondergaard, Brian, and Ron for letting us stay at their house for a month. We had some very special times.

The famous "flapjacks" and applesauce! All of the guys have atleast 6 each!
