Our long-awaited Lincoln Gage Westcott is here!! Born on Thursday, March 11th, he weighed in at 9 lbs. 12 oz. and is quite the handsome young man. Lisa, Michael, Mason and baby Lincoln are doing well.
Family Focus: This year seems so different for me than any other year. I'm not sure why, but God's been testing me these last several weeks. Between Mom's illness, our kitchen turned upside down since before Labor Day weekend, and personal family losses...this year has drastically changed my viewpoint.
You can read more about this in my update on the blog!
Brienna's News: Brienna has taken my breathe away with her learning abilities. She's recognizes places we go...a couple blocks from teh house, she says "We're going home, Mommy!" She knows our church, MeMaw's house in Landis, and my office.
She's also learned to read - well sort of. She made a book in play school before she and Ellie were taken out at the end of summer. Today, she still sits down with the book and "reads" it to me. "Brown bear, brown bear, what do you see? I see a red bird looking at me." There are about 13 pages and she's got them all memorized.
Ellie's News: Ellie is right in toe with her big sister. Everywhere they go, they play together VERY well. Ellie loves to pick out movies, play on her letter pad, look at books (pretending to read). She's even gotten into babydolls. That child can turn ANYTHING into a babydoll! LOL
Her vocabulary is just way out there - she's learned alot from her sister. And when you tell her she can't do something - watch out! She'll tell "Yes, I can" and prove you wrong!
