Dancing Princess and the Turtle

When I went to pick up the kids from the sitters today I was welcomed by Havi in full princess ballerina gear! She had a purple satin scarf, double strand of pearls around her neck, a red and gold sparkling tutu, and other beautiful decorations fit for royalty. She greeted me with a up and down jump of "I'm a princess mommy. I dancing princess!" Well I was led into the living room for a private performances of two toe taps with each foot, a full spin and a very thoughtful curtsy. She had a hard time keeping her balance for the bow:) What a cutie.

We also have a empty turtle shell in our living room. It is made out of the last of our moving boxes. Owen and Kevin started the sawing and cutting and it evolved from a head hole to a full blown turtle shell complete with arm holes, leg holes, tail and the markings of a brown and green shell. I think the greatest part was seeing Kevin trying to demonstrate how exactly Owen should move across the floor like a turtle. I guess it is a one size fits all shell:)

As usual Liam is just chillin' like a villain, sitting up, falling over, and crawling for anything he can get into his mouth. He loves Havilah's hair and blankie. Of all the things he could pick he picked the ones she screams the most about. Owen can still get him to light up like no other. He is starting to look like a British rock star again, his hair grows so quick.
Kevin has also been wooing me. We have been able to have breakfast out together and tomorrow we go to our new favorite Mexican restaurant call Jose Peppers. Yum Yum . We are doing well but there are still a lot of life things to sort through as we adjust to a new life and ministry here in Kansas. We miss so many of you! We also leave in less than a week for CANADA!!!!!

Hey-
Oh my word Havi's little Princess Dance was ssssooooo cute.

That's funny that Kevin demonstrated a turtle with his one size fits all turtle shell.

Liam is way cute. He's such a rolly polly, it's adorable. I still really wish I could've taken him home with me. He did so well just sitting on my lap.

Miss you guys again already-
Jenny
