Duncan's 7th Birthday

Duncan has grown so much this past year physically and mentally. I have been so proud of him. I have noticed what a big heart he has. Just a couple days ago, Duncan out of nowhere comes out of his room and gives Dad a card. On the front of his card he has him and his dad holding hands and on the inside he writes, " Dad you are the best dad ever. I love you so much." You might expect this kind of card to be given on a birthday or another holiday. Duncan does these unexpected things all the time like I said he has a big heart. I am also proud of how well he is doing in school. Duncan did not like to read until just recently. He always would fight me when I would try and make him read. I don't know what happened but he one day started reading and just now always has a book in his hand. I always find him in a corner reading. He tells me how exciting books are to him and how much he loves them. We love Duncan and can't wait to see what this year will bring for him. Happy Birthday!!!

Nash's Christmas Program

Christmas 2009

Every year we have all the kids make a gingerbread house out of graham crackers. They love decorating and eating the candy while they decorate. It was loads of fun and sure to be a tradition in our family for years to come.

1st Dentist Trip

Nash loved going to the dentist. He had a ton of cavities but he was a trooper when they filled them all. I used to be so good at making sure my kids ate the right foods and brushed their teeth all the time. Four kids later I am not so good with what goes into their mouths and how many times I brush their teeth every day. I am happy with at least once a day brushing their teeth. I am going to have to get used to more cavities until I can get my act together.

Nash's 4th Birthday

Nash is one of a kind!! He is our most outgoing child and has such a loving and sensitive side to him. He always has a smile on his face even when he is getting in trouble. Lately, his prayers are all about giving thanks for things we might not think about for example he will say, " I am so thankful for the waves of the sea" or " I am thankful for the dirt". He is so thoughtful and loves when his mom or dad gives him attention. He will watch what the other boys do to get attention and then he will turn around and do the exact same thing and wait for our reaction. We have caught on to this and we make sure and give him tons of attention. We love our little guy so much!! What would the Lawrence Family be like without Nash, it sure would quiet around here.

Halloween 2009

I know it has been forever since I last posted. We have moved to a different home and ever since, it has been a little crazy around here. I have a lot of catching up to do. I am going to try and keep up with my busy family. This blog is my only source of a family album/journal.
