cute video

I thought Arwen might want to watch this one…


Baby Talk

Two thoughts: one, this video is sure to make Arwen smile. And two: somedays, I think this is what I sound like to my boys. (in the words of the Talking Heads: you’re talking a lot, but you’re not saying anything.) But these babies, they are saying something!


Double the Fun!

Watch and enjoy

This video is for Arwen and also my friend K. and all you other ladies out there who are pregnant with twin boys! (Are there a lot of you out there? Tell us who you are!)


Very Hungry Caterpillar Cake

http://cococakecupcakes.blogspot.com/

This is for Arwen, and for those of you who contributed to her posts on children’s literature.

There’s a cake for almost everything you loved—and hated—here.

I think Moishe from Where the Wild Things Are is my favorite. Yours?

(If you go exploring the hilarious Cakewrecks site, be warned that not everything’s PG-rated.)


For Arwen, On Her Special Day

Because today is your special day, Arwen, and because no one sings it quite like New Kids On The Block, this is for you. Groove along with me now ...

We love you, Arwen! Hope your day is filled with sweetness and special blessings!


Guess Who Came to Dinner?

Hooray for the Beans getting to meet Arwen and her family!
Camilla and Gabby share a smile

This morning, Daniel got out of his bed, came downstairs, and squinted at me.

“Where are my friends?” he asked.

He was disappointed when I told him that Arwen and Bryan, Camilla and Blaise left last night.

We were so excited when Arwen emailed earlier this week to let us know she and her family would be coming to New Hampshire and had some time they could spend with us. They stopped by yesterday afternoon... READ MORE 


A Special Mom's Special Day

Happy Birthday Arwen!

Happy day! Our very own Arwen is celebrating her birthday today. Won’t you join me in wishing her happiness and blessings?

Arwen, we are so blessed to have you blogging with us here at Faith & Family. The unique combination of down to earth honesty and faith-filled love that emanates from all that you share with us here encourages, refreshes, and inspires us all.

Thank you for always giving so freely of yourself for the benefit of others. May God bless your generosity and thoughtfulness.

Happy Birthday, Arwen! We love you!
