Pals, Projects, & Pirates

We’ve had a week filled with piano, pals, projects (some with paint), and pirates (yes, pirates!). On Thursday one of my piano and voice students came over for her lessons. Cayti has Down’s Syndrome and had the opportunity to go to a special bike riding class last week, but it was during her regularly scheduled lesson at Main Street School of Music. The bike class was on UTA campus (right across the street from us) so I worked it out with Cayti’s mom for her to come to our apartment for her lessons before bike class. Cayti’s mom watched Becca during the lesson and brought us dinner. It worked out great for all.

Friday  Micah, Anna, and Adam Martin came over for dinner. Adam was born exactly 3 weeks after Isaiah. It was neat to see the two boys together. I told Isaiah it was his first time to have a friend over.

 

Saturday Josh took Becca to Home Depot for a free kids workshop, something Home Depot sponsors on the 1st Saturday of every month. This month’s project was a cork board that Josh helped Becca put together and then Becca painted it. They both had a good time. While they were gone, I worked on reorganizing a closet. In keeping with the paint theme, Becca and I had done some finger painting earlier in the week . . . then we turned the extra paint into body paint.

Sunday afternoon Becca went to Ahana’s 5th birthday party at Pump it Up, a bounce house place; the part’s theme was pirates and princesses. We all got to play in the bounce houses (except Isaiah who wasn’t too impressed with the party.)

Monday John and Shawn Lutz came over for dinner. We enjoyed our evening with them. Becca kept both Shawn and John busy playing in her room and reading to her.

Tuesday morning the Hsu family (piano students) came over to meet Isaiah. They brought two containers of ice cream and ice cream cones for a snack. Becca enjoyed playing with the boys in her room while Missy and I visited together.

Wednesday was just a normal day with library in the morning and piano lessons in the evening.

  1. So many pictures this week. Loved it! Miss you all. You must be exhausted after that week.

  2. Looks like a very busy but fun week – glad you work to have fellowship with lots of friends. So good to see pictures of Anna and new baby Adam. Congrats!! Also good to see the John and Shawn – you’re only 3/4ths the man you used to be John – congrats!!! Becca is so cute with her daddy and her Home Depot apron. Great outing! Both kids get cuter all the time – parents, too. Love all the smiles on you all! Happy and healthy!

  3. Isaiah is ADORABLE. I wish I could hold him and kiss his chubby cheeks. Becca’s project at Home Depot looks like it was a lot of fun. I should check our Home Depot–that would be a fun thing for David to do with Bella. Hope you have a lovely day!

  4. I loved seeing Isaiah with his little friend Adam!! When I was at NLBC right after Isaiah’s birth, the ladies were setting up for Anna’s baby shower! What an adorable baby she has!! Thanks for sharing your week with us, the day by day run down was great fun to read! We are leaving on Monday for Long Beach Island, we’ll be at Harvey Cedars Bible Conference for the week. Maybe someday you can come with us!!
