The past month...

Goodness! Where has the past month gone?! Packing, moving, unpacking, organizing, decorating, a garage sale... it's been quite chaotic around here but things are starting to settle down, Praise the Lord, and life is getting back to normal. Here are some pictures and a few videos from the past few weeks-Enjoy! Anna was a good helper when it came to packing boxes. She eagerly threw anything and everything in boxes. :-)
At our new house, she loves to run in our backyard. It's good sized and the trees provide good shade and a home for many birds and bunnies which we love to watch. We've even seen a raccoon prowling around back there.
We put her kitchen in our kitchen at our new house and she plays with it a lot more now. She's often cooking for her babies and feeding them. It's so fun to watch her play as she imitates us more and more each day. We don't even realize the things she notices us doing.
She LOVES to wear her sunglasses everywhere. It doesn't matter where we are, she wants them on!
Her first major boo-boo occured 2 weekends ago while we were sorting through boxes in the garage. She was playing on her John Deere tractor, riding around in the garage and before I knew it, I heard the wheels start spinning rather quickly and realized she was headed down the driveway. Our driveway is a bit steep so she pipcked up speed and away she went with her feet pulled up enjoying every minute of it until she got to the bottom of the drive and the tractor caught on the lip where the road starts and it through her off the tractor into the street. She loves to give us heart failure!! The Lord was watching over her and protecting her because it wasn't more than a minute after I got down there to get her that a car came flying around the corner and could've run over her had I not gotten her out of the road in time. Her eye was swollen shut for an entire day but it didn't seem to bother her. Thankfully her boo-boo has healed up very well with just a small red spot above her eye right now. It doesn't look like there will be a bad scar so that's a blessing as well.

I am so glad that Anna didn't get into a bigger accident - how scary! These things will happen with kids and all we can do is our best as a parent to protect them and trust God with the rest that is out of our control.
