It’s been while since we’ve posted due to our sudden move…but we’ve arrived!  We’re still settling in but we’re enjoying it very much.  We love the church, the people, our new home, and the most beautiful part has been God’s glorious creation that seems to be more untouched in these parts.  Here is a look back at the baby’s growth from the past couple months and also a few shots of what the upper penninsula looks like…

Baby’s still sucking his thumb and the rest of his fingers.  His first tooth was spotted by Auntie Kerri at the park on August 30th and his second tooth closely followed on September 12th. 

The baby still loves to eat!  He’s growing and is 29 inches long and
mostly likely weighs over 20 lbs.  I haven’t had a chance to weigh him
yet (but we carry him every day!!)

His least favorite food is green beans…but he’ll still eat it like an obedient child.  He’s getting used to it (since I try to feed it to him at least every other day).  I’m testing whether it is true that you can “train” your baby to like any food.  🙂

The baby loves carrots!!

Uncle Steve Conway came to visit with us for a week.  The baby especially enjoyed it when he got to babysit him at 5:30am when we had to go to the airport.  Of course he had to wake up soon after they left.

And Israel had the nerve to wonder where the baby got his grumpiness from!!

The baby picked up sucking his toes…

He’s going to miss his buddy, Hunter.  We lived next door but now we’re over 9 hours away…boohoo!

This is our new backyard!  On Sabbath morning, a doe came to eat some apples from one of our 2 apple trees.  We felt like we were in Heaven or something!

You can’t see it very well…but there’s an apple in his mouth.

Here is the Houghton Seventh-day Adventist Church.  It is walking distance to the beautiful Lake Superior.  We had a wonderful first Sabbath there and made many new friends!

And these last pictures were taken for his 6th month birthday by Uncle Daniel at his house.  (He can sit up by himself now!)

…and pianist  🙂

We hope you’ll come visit us in the UP!

Thank you for all of your prayers and love.  We hope to keep in touch!

Love,
