Words to live by...

From the fullness of His grace we have received one blessing after
another

Remember who you are and you will walk through life blessed and beautiful

When you reach the heart of life you shall find beauty in all things

Children are a gift from God

Never underestimate the power of prayer

Mission Accomplished!



Jackson has finally mastered eating baby food!!! We've been working with him on this off and on for the past 2 months. He began trying baby cereal at 6mths (the same time he was diagnosed with a double ear infection - his first one). This didn't go too well as he didn't like taking an antibiotic and had so much drainage from the ear infections down the back of his throat (would you like food on top of all that?). So, we backed off the solids for a bit and then tried once the antibiotic was done - well, no success as he developed a cold (with extra phlegm). This then developed into another single ear infection and just before turning 8mths old he had another double ear infection. We decided to skip the baby cereal and head straight for the fruits/veggies stage 1. Needless to say, he's a HUGE fan of the orange veggies so far!!! He's actually doing well keeping them down and prefers veggies over fruits (is this MY child?). Any of you remember the picture of Lucas and the carrots at Jackson's age? (read: pile of ABC (already been chewed) carrots lying next to Lucas in the crib). Thank goodness Jackson's stay in his belly (and diaper for the most part :)

I apologize in my lack of posting - life just gets busy and time goes by...........here are a few recent pix of happenings in the Meyers' household. Enjoy!

Hey- will you send me your copy of the pic of all of us girls? i think it's better (clearer and we might all be looking at the same camera- what a feat!) than the one Katie sent me? (But, K8s, thanks for sending, just the same!)
