The Latest Headlines

Joseph Looses His First Tooth!
This was on April 18th.  He came into our room in the middle of the night to share the news. His front bottom teeth are a bit loose too, as well as the other top tooth.

Samuel Growing Fast!
At Samuel's 3wk appt, he was 8lbs 0.5oz and 21 inches (that a gain of more than 2lbs and 2 inches!)
He's now just over a month old.


I think he takes after Joseph.
Samuel is Baptized!
On April 13, 2013, Samuel Anthony was cleansed of original sin and received sanctifying grace!

Easter Blessings (Mixed)
We had a happy Easter with mixed blessings.  We were very happy and blessed to spend the afternoon with Daniel and Angela and Rachel, the three of whom also provided our Easter feast.  Clara, however, came down with a stomach bug the night before, throwing up several times and having a fever.  So we could not go to Mass together and poor little Clara was not feeling well.  She recovered over the course of the ensuing week and thankfully no one else in the family came down with that sickness.


St. Joseph's Day Celebration A Success!
Not only was March 19 a great day because Samuel was born, but the celebration for the Feast of St. Joseph that I had been helping to plan was a big success.  There were lots of people there, lots of food, everything looked great and hopefully we will continue to have such a great celebration every year!

  1. Samuel is such a handsome little bundle! I can't believe how much he has changed in a month. It was wonderful to read your updates. Thanks Sarah!
