We decided to bake cookies today. Stephen was quite the helper. He poured everything in the mixer and would lock it, but he was a little squirmish about actually turning it on. Then he helped knead the dough and (kinda) rolled it out, and he had a lot of fun using the cookie cutters (thank you Auntie Claire... no longer are they only used for bath toys!) Speaking of Auntie Claire, we thought of you and Isaac while we were cooking. As you can tell by the picture, Joseph and Isaac have quite a lot in common.

Quite the show...
Jerome put on a puppet show for us the other night. Low budget, as you can tell by the puppets. :) But, Joseph stole the show. Check it out....

Uncle Dave and Titi Laura come to visit
Tuesday, October 7, 2008
Kolbe Augustine Foss has arrived
Here's a little ditty that my mom made that sums it all up...
He made his debut on his own terms...
A SUNDAY baby he wanted to be!
Kolbe Augustine Foss has arrived
In a family of boys, he's three.
At 7 lbs, 6 ounces, he's a bit of a handful,
20 inches in length he stretches.
The pictures will give you a little look,
You can decided who he matches!
So October 5 will be the day
We celebrate each year...
Praise God for a beautiful baby boy,
I'm sure you'll agree, he's a "dear"!

Long time... no bloggy
Sorry... it's been a while since my last blog. It's not that I've been incredibly busy or anything, it's just that sleep definitely wins when put up against blogging. Kolbe is wearing me out these days! Although there was a time where I happily thought he might just come early, after going in for my checkup today, I think he'll be riiiiiiiight on time. (10-2-08) That's okay... really... it's good for him to cook as long as he can so everything can develop nicely... it's just that this last month of pregnancy is a bit challenging for me. Ah... it's good, though. The 5-6 times I wake up a night to go to the bathroom is only preparing me for those late night feedings, right?!?


We're just taking it easy these days... preparing for Kolbe's arrival. Here's a photo of the boys in the tupperware that previously held the 0-3 month clothes. We finally pulled them out for Kolbe...
Jerome is an amazing husband and has really been a huge help. He's started his semester, but he's made sure to make plenty of time for anything I need. And I can't say enough about Nannie and Poppie (Jerome's parents), too. I tell ya, when you have a mother-in-law that will come over and clean your bathrooms so that you don't have to bend over your big belly to scrub a tub... you've got a good thing going. And thankfully Nana (my mom) will be here soon to help out, too. Gosh, I am so blessed to have such a wonderful family! Thanks be to God!
Okay... my bed is now yelling at me to come sleep in it. We can't have that silly bed waking up the boys, so I must go. :) Hopefully there will be more blogging in near future...
Although not the most flattering of photos, here's a shot of the basketball, I mean Kolbe...
I gotta give you a couple pictures of the other two, too. So here's Joseph with Papa...
Papa came to visit us around Labor Day weekend. We unfortunately had a death in the family, so he came for the funeral. A bittersweet experience, only because of our hope in God. Surely, Fran is in Heaven, and so our grief is coupled with joy. We enjoyed our time with Papa, and we even went to Westfest with him. Stephen especially enjoyed the parade... Candy and tractors?!? Could life get much better?!?
