The Blessing of Friendship

I mentioned before that there were going to be lots of new babies in our group of friends up here. Well all the babies have arrived healthy and beautiful. All new baby boys and one new baby girl.


It has been such a blessing to have such a great group of close friends. The Lord brought all of us together at our church, all newly married and now all new parents. I have been so encouraged by all of these couples and families. We have spent many times hanging out, laughing, playing games, praying, studying the Bible, and eating together. Our kids will have so much fun with so many playmates close in age. However our gathering will have to start earlier in the evening and will look very different going forward with so many little ones.


On the home frond things are going well. Neal is getting more and more animated each day. He loves to be on his back on his play mat. Tummy time is not a favorite of his but we are working on it. We have are good days and bad days but all in all Neal is a very low key baby with a mellow personality which allows me to keep up with housework somewhat.




This weekend I will be participating in a 5K heart walk with a few friends. We will be walking with the kiddos in the strollers so we hope the weather is clear and sunny. It is nice to finally be able to get out and exercise a little in the crisp spring air, and Neal loves to ride in the stroller.
