Wow. Has it really been that long?

I didn't realize how long it had been since I blogged. My Mom didn't tell me... and she usually does!

Well, we've been fairly busy in the Parrish Family. We survived Evan's second birthday and Emma's dedication at church (Dec. 20th). We had a small disaster with Evan's birthday cake, but after a small meltdown (by me), we just bought one at the grocery store. In retrospect, it was no big deal. I'll prepare better next year.


Emma is growing like crazy (and so is Evan, actually). She started smiling really big about a month ago, I guess, and today (January 7), she laughed for the first time. I missed it. I was at work. I'm bummed by that... a lot.


Evan is 2. Yes, he definitely is. He has extreme moments of sweetness. And then there's the other stuff. Yep. He's 2. He is talking up a storm, which is SO much fun. It's amazing how much of a cute little person he is. He has an amazing personality, and we couldn't love him any more if we tried.

On the general family side... we're still praying for some financial miracle. We had a few months of reprieve from desperation, but that time is running out. Please join us in praying for a solution. We truly believe that God has something big planned and we know his timing is perfect... it's just REALLY hard to not totally freak out.
So, prayers are very much appreciated.

Here are some photos of Emma and one of Evan! I'll get more Evan photos up asap!

My sweet girl in her overalls!




Our little Christmas present!




We like to call her... Emma Clause.



C'mon... how sweet is this?
