"BUT MARY TREASURED UP ALL THESE THINGS AND PONDERED THEM IN HER HEART." LUKE 2:19

~ things i love with a capital P ~

PERSPECTIVE, pottery barn patio furniture displays, practically all track jackets, putting my hope in Christ alone, photography, pistachio nuts, parenting as a privilege, pairs of cute sunglasses, painful times deepening friendships, pink bubblegum ice cream (by the pint), perseverance, practical jokes, people, people i can trust, plumeria flowers, pearl earrings that were my grandma's, pantene smooth vitality conditioner, plopping clutter into the trash, pigtails all messed up after naptime on my girls, purel hand sanitizer, painting walls with color, pouring into people's lives, plush blankets, prioritizing, polished nails, pharmacies with 24hr drive-thrus, places where palm trees survive winter, packing away my 2009 "calendar", pacific northwest mountains & rivers, pie plates with fluted edges, purpose, puppies named bronson, preferring the word pacing vs. procrastinating, people who love to say i'm sorry more than they love to hear it, pocket-sized butterfingers, phone calls with special friends, piano music, patterned scarves, practicing not to presume things, planting flowers in pots, passion, penne pasta, panda bears reminding me of my love for HK & japan, pillows that are just right, praise & worship freeing people of pride & insecurities, paying for starbucks coffee with gift cards, putting on my running shoes, pomegranate mixed drinks, putting off dishes till company leaves, purses filled with lipgloss, people who can be vulnerable, parties for every occasion, politeness, plane rides to far away places, popcorn that's air-popped, paul marrying stephanie, pedicures, peaceful homes, price tags with a clearance sticker on them, pre-recorded tv watching, poverty prompting compassion, pieces of angel food cake & strawberries for breakfast, peeking in on my girls while they sleep, products from bath-n-body works, packs of trident spearmint gum, people who can laugh & be witty when life gets hard, paper plates in bulk, papa murphys garlic spinach chicken artichoke de-lite pizza, pretending my girls and i wrote 'put your arms around me' by natasha bedingfield for each other & singing/dancing to it each night after work to remind me to put grace & humor in EVERYTHING (towards myself & them) or it will feel like a really long work week, a very short life, and an inevitable amount of colorful language exposure that i couldn't possibly blame all on the playground...............

Our 1st cousin is here!

December 7th, 2009
(Notice it's the same date as Eden's Party)
And yes, I did stay awake at the hospital all night to get to meet him...I ended up watching him be born(After 4hrs. of pushing Morgan lost all sense of privacy!!LOL) and no he wasn't born until after 5am
*********************
So Eden and sissy were very willing to share the party balloons with Conner at Auntie's bedside and left the Birthday cupcakes in Auntie's room in honor of this "birth-day" celebration day! Luckily they weren't actually born on the same day since Eden's is the 23rd, but we have always celebrated hers the first Sunday in December to have a break between the Holidays is how this happened!
*******************************
Hallé getting to hold her cousin Conner Joseph for the first time

Eden's first time holding...she said her favorite was his feet and cute blue hat!
Hooray....I'm finally an Auntie; can you tell I'm excited and obviously had a very large Carmel Frappacino w/ vanilla and extra carmel on top from Starbucks!

Happy Birthday Baby Conner!
You are perfect...We are so glad you are here

1 minute old.....amazing

In the NICU...30min. old
"I love you auntie sarah..!" :) ..."I love you too pretty little baby"

Justin and Morgan...Proud Dad and Mom having her first glimpse of Conner
