Brotherly Love

We had a little photo shoot of the brothers yesterday (the first successful one). I just adore these two!

Not the best of Caleb, but look at J's face!

J's not sure what he thinks

I think they look so alike here

I couldn't resist taking a two minute break from reading books to snap a few of the three of us:

Caleb was supposed to be making a "surprised face" but mine was just too mesmerizing

JD takes an elbow to the nose, thus ending our little photo session

And a couple more just because I like them:

Tummy time. I could eat those cheeks

Chowin' down on his favorite pizza while reppin' the TC hat like dad
(which stands for Traverse City if you ask my side of the family)

The Name Explained

Introducing our NEW NAME (10/20/12): You may notice that the name of our blog has changed. You see, I've been trying to come up with a more snazzy name for our blog for quite some time, and it was actually Tim who came up with "Marching to a New Beat". I must say though that it's exactly what I was going for and for several reasons. Most obviously, it includes our last name (duh). Secondly (and more importantly), it reflects the newness of the stage we're in as parents and as a family. Everything we are going through right now is brand spankin' new. From giving birth, to changing diapers, to baby proofing our home, we really have no idea what we're doing since we've never done anything like it before... it's all SO new. That's not all though. There's yet another layer to this little onion of a name... I recently joined a weekly bible study called Bible Study Fellowship and we are going through Genesis. Additionally, our small group is reading a book called Forgotten God (by Francis Chan). In both of these studies, I have been repeatedly struck by how we shed our old sinful selves and take on a new being through Christ's death and ressurection. Our lives should reflect this newness, and while we often fail in this endeavor, we are called to march on (with God's help, of course).

And so there you have it... Marching to a New Beat. That's what we're doing everyday, and as often as I have time and relevant content, we'll share this newness with you and hope you enjoy each moment with us.
