Meeting Colette Momper...

Chris's good friend Joel Momper and his wife Erica had their first little one about a month after Mark was born.  We got to meet precious Colette on our way back from New Jersey.  She is a beauty!!






Mark is already 2 months old!!

The past 2 months have flown by!  I cannot believe little Mark is already 2 months old!!  He's coo-ing, smiling, and laughing more and more very day.  He had his first smile on April 14th (more than a month ago now!).  The past few days I've noticed him batting at his toys that dangle from his play mat--- you would have thought he'd conquered world peace--- I got out the video camera, tried to call Chris and we've told pretty much everyone we've come in contact with since!!  He's had a lot of "firsts" during the month of May.... I'm going to try to document several of them in the following pictures....

1 month Photo - "Serious"
We had a great time setting up a photo shoot for Mark's 1 month pictures.  We are certainly loving our new camera!!

1 month photo - "Fun"

First "silly face" -- This picture is especially for Mark's cousins, Olivia, Annabella and Calvin.  When Mark gets a bit older, he'll be able to do silly faces with you on the webcam :-)


First time sleeping on Papa's chest

Why the name "Drinking From Our Saucer"?

The full phrase is "I'm drinking from my saucer because my cup is overflowing." It came from Chris's grandmother who would say it when she would get overwhelmed with her blessings. Through the years the phrase has been shortened to "I'm drinking from my saucer!" We thought it was a perfect fit for a blog that documented God's many blessings to us.
