**Funny Story's of the month (I remembered to write down)**
So we were driving down the road and Jack was in the car seat and randomly asked "What's Jen and Scott's babies name?" I told him that his name is Baby Aiden and he is going to be here really soon but he's in Jenn's belly still. And then he said "his number is zero he doesn't have a number yet."
Until next time....here are some photos from life lately! So we were driving down the road and Jack was in the car seat and randomly asked "What's Jen and Scott's babies name?" I told him that his name is Baby Aiden and he is going to be here really soon but he's in Jenn's belly still. And then he said "his number is zero he doesn't have a number yet."
#Jackamadeus - BIG BROTHER update!
- Favorite color - dark blue

- Favorite food - Pancakes
- Favorite hobby - Play with his friends he says.
- Favorite song - We are still enjoying the same songs from last month (A LOT!) Come People of the Risen King by the Gettys and He's Got the Whole World. We also are singing a lot of Christmas music for some reason...specifically Away in a Manger.
- Funny quote - "Hey Dad did you have a good day at church?"
- He's a genius - We have no idea what is working and what is not working you know. Sometimes we encourage him to memorize bible verses and say them to us and he does it for a reward. The other day we were going down the road and I heard him saying Psalm 95. I stopped and realized that is not one of the verses we have worked on....he has been in service every Sunday morning and he sits and listens to us recite that at the beginning of each service. We had no idea and were completely blown away!
- Highlight - had her first real boo-boo this month on 7/4 she fell on our pavement and scratched her nose pretty bad.
- Her words - Hi, Bye, Mama, Dada, Jah (for Jack), and LaLa (for Lucy), Water, Hello, Whoa, book, baby, all done, and tons more
- Sleep - Great sleeper still.
- Clothes - She is in 12-18 months clothes. She wears size 4 shoes.
- Diapers - Size 4 diapers!
- Food - She has been a great eater pretty much this month. She kind of is on the way out of eating baby food.
- Skills - One of her favorite things to do is the yoga position "downward dog". Its quite funny she will just randomly do it at the funniest places and time.
- Crying - Still wants her mama a whole lot.

Pondering Thoughts
- Outside my window...My beautiful backyard
- I am thinking...about how I stayed up wayyy to late last night!
- I am thankful for...my home
- I am wearing...Madewell Tshirt and the most comfortable pants in the world from Anthro.
- I am remembering...all the things we are separately and together doing this week in our family
- I am going...to try to pull from my strengths and work hard and also find some time to play hard and rest!
- I am reading...The Royal We and The Soul of Shame
- I am hoping...that I can handle all that I have committed to this Fall.
- On my mind...in doing this exercise I realize how much my thinking time is consumed by financial and organizational stuff. I am a future thinking person and so I am always thinking about the next step and the process to getting there most efficiently.
- Noticing that..I need to choose joy and practice joy.
- Pondering these words...contentment.
- From the kitchen...well this morning it was a juice I made and coffee. Think I need another cup and something else to hold me over till lunch!
- Around the house...its mostly clean and picked up and I think thats a great start to a Monday morning!
- One of my favorite things...quiet time in some amount each day! Gotta have it!
