Happy Valentine's Day


Lily wants to wish a very Happy Valentine's Day to you! She was Daddy's valentine, though Dad wasn't feeling too well :( We had a wonderful day and continue to be blown away by this amazing love we have for this precious child, constantly pointing us to and amazing us even further by the love the Father has for us.

hangin' out and church

Check out the belly on this grouchy bird!

Today was Lily's first Haitian church service! We went to one of Matt's old student's church, where they had a special song dedicated and sung to her, but were all quite disappointed when she slept through it :) As she was introduced, she spontaneously waved one hand wildly in the air, which everyone thought was hilarious.It is still too rainy and cold to wear her dresses without longsleeves underneath, but it has still been a really nice weekend! It's wonderful to finally be on a schedule again, and to allow Lily to develop a loose schedule, too. She's only up once a night now to eat, which has been such a blessing to be getting 3-4 hours of uninterrupted sleep at a time, especially with a five week old! "She is a gift from God" everyone here says to us all of the time, and she truly is.

sleepy girl...just not at night!


Sleeping in her absolute favorite thing: a bouncy chair that vibrates with her favorite blanket!


Sleeping in her new Haitian bassinet that Gord and Doreen had woven for her!
