Life with the 5 of us

On Sunday, Jan 11 we baptized Micah Alan. It was a wonderful day where we promised to bring Micah up to know Jesus! What a beautiful covenant God has made to protect and love our little Micah. A few family members were able to make it down for the big day, thanks to everyone who came to help us celebrate! :0)




Hanging out with the Huisman clan at their hotel the night before! Lotsa fun! Ann came with the twins: it was pretty cute to see them splashing around. Tina came up with the boys and Dad and Rita as well. My parents came up Sunday am.

Looking a little startled to be with his grandparents.

Not too bad for self-taken pics eh? This is what I do on long days at home by myself with the kids. :0)

He's grown into his hands a bit

Out cold on Mom


Matching boys!

Hiya dad

Sisterly love


MOM, Brookie's bugging me again!

Little man

Can there be ANY more love?

Almost a smile! He's a very content little dude, but SOOO stingy with the smiles still. Hopefully he'll be a little more generous with em cause they're pretty cute. Geneva claims he smiled at her 7 times last week.... but I've only seen 3 or 4 - in his life - total!

Ready for the Arctic weather!

So hard to believe Micah is 6 1/2 weeks already. He was 10 lbs exactly at the midwife's on Tues. Getting big, lot at those great cheekers!

Andrea and Derek: What a special day it was to see Micah baptised and know that you will raise him up to love God. We as grandparents promise to support you in any way we can in that.
I think you might have a future in photography An, your pictures are so unique!

Hello you five! We're loving and missing you here in Michigan, but the pictures are great. Eli's looking forward to seeing his drinking buddy again soon!
