This year has already started out with a few changes, and we are only 20 days into it. First of all our beautiful Ashley turned 12 AND got braces. (More on that in another post). We have also been blessed to have found us a church home and joined Jan.17th. Trinity Fellowship is what we know call "our Church". We have been going to their Saturday night service for 6 mo. now and Henry and I both, along with the kids have really enjoyed it. They have great Kid and Youth programs for the kids. Charlie LOVES going to Heroland and Ashley LOVES going to Xtreme. That was very important to us. We wanted a church that the kids liked and wanted to get involved in. I am so thankful that we have found a place to call home.
So why did I take a picture of this bag? Well, inside it is 2 Bibles, 2 pens, and 2 note pads....Why? you ask. Well, not only did we join Trinity, Henry and I also joined our very first Life Group. Last night was our first night, and let me just say that I thought of a million different reasons NOT to go. I think I might have even had a slight anxiety attack on the way to the church. Most of you know that neither myself or Henry do well in groups. HAHA Henry just kept saying it'll be good we need to go.....so we went. AND....We enjoyed it. AND....we look forward to going back next week. So there ya go. Congratulations to us!
And on to another change in our house...Charlie has finally decided that the frog potty chair needs to leave the house. He says, "take it away and give it to the babies". FINALLY we are free from cleaning that little green toe stubber. Those of you who have cleaned on know what I'm talking about. YUCK. Ashley never used one, she always used the "big potty". So I put it in my rather large trash pile for H to dispose of this week. Yay.
Now on to the post I mentioned last week or so. PILLOW! Now look at this little guy He really LOVES these two pillows.
This little brownish thing that he is snuggled up to is his #1 all time favorite thing. Believe it or not, it IS clean. It has been washed numerous times in bleach, but this is just about as good as it gets. It is often referred to by Henry as "frankenpillow" because it has had numerous holes repaired by Grandmother or Nanny. He absolutely refused to put a pillow case in it...ever. Now he doesn't lay his head on this beauty, he puts it on top of his head when he goes to bed. Seriously cute and funny.
Now this is his beloved BOPPY. Aunt Jerilynn bought this for us when I was expecting Charlie. It at one point had pretty light yellow cover with sheep on it. It has since had to be recovered due to holes and the stuffing coming out. Now when he was tiny we would lay him in the hole in the middle on a blanket and he slept really good. It has been onboard during several hospital stays also. He puts his little head on it everynight and loves it.

And the brownish colored one even got to go INSIDE Magic Kingdom, Downtown Disney and Hollywood Studios. Yep...stuffed in the bottom of a stroller. I have bigh HOPES that pillow and boppy will retire as easy as frog potty.....BUT I WON'T HOLD MY BREATH!
