Aunt Chris called it. Mr. Max is turning into quite the lady killer.

I see it.....



Natasha here:

People have been telling me how much Max looks like Jim, and honestly I didn't see it. Until... Today. I snapped this picture today of Max and of course checked it out immediately on the LCD on the camera. I was like there it is. I finally see it.
I guess the UPS man is in the clear ;)

Job 23:12

I have not departed from the commands of his lips; I have treasured the words of his mouth more than my daily bread.

Fourth of July

I was 2 months old on the fourth.



Unfortunately, I don't remember much of the day.

Living Life on the Edge

Tonight we lived life on the edge...half way into our trip to Meijer we (Natasha) realized we (Jim) had forgotten some essential items for our outing. No not Max...but his diaper bag, pacifier, and blanket for the 40 degree dairy isle. All we had for him was the car seat he was sitting in and the Onesie he was wearing. No props if things went wrong or essentials if things got messy. Living life dangerously.

Now for me, and probably most men, there comes a point where you can't go back for something you forgot...for me it's the river, the river is a 1/2 mile from our house. My theory is if I've made it that far with out something I don't need it for where ever I am going. I don't think Natasha really bought into that logic of mine tonight...the rolling eyes gave that away. I tried to assure nothing could go wrong in our 30 minute outing to Meijer. What could go wrong in 30 minutes...45 at most.

As we entered Meijer we were met by the shrilling screams of a child who was not happy...I assumed his parents brought to many props to entertain him and he was overstimulated. I made eye contact with our angel of a son and gave him the "don't ever do that look", he was nodding off to sleep with the look of, yeah right dad, on his face.

I am happy to report there were no problems in our outing. No fussing, screaming, crying, or diaper dirtying. Just one content son making his dad look like a genius as they lived life on the edge.

A beautiful day



What a beautiful morning...what a beautiful weekend. I was able to go golfing this morning by myself. It was wonderful to be the first on the course and to see the sun begin to clear the trees at 7am. Blue skies, wispy clouds, and a cool breeze.

I have been polishing up some verses that I learned a year ago but it has been a while since I've reviewed them. Today while chasing around a little white ball I recommitted :

Hebrews 10: 24-25 - And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds. Let us not give up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but let us encourage one another and all the more as you see the day approaching.

1 John 1:3 - We proclaim to you what we have seen and heard so that you also may have fellowship with us. And our fellowship is with our Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ.
