Catching Up

It's been quite some time since I have put any pictures of the boys on the blog. Each time I sit down to add some more something happens and it doesn't get done. So in no particular order, here are a few photos of the boys' lives this summer.


Noah has really come to love his walker. He gets around pretty well in it and loves to go out on the patio with it. Not a good thing for his socks during monsoon, but he loves it!


When we have to be inside, we line the toys up on the furniture and goes around collecting.


Every time I tried to get Noah to smile, Caleb would tickle him and stop smiling at the camera himself. So we just gave it up!


This is one of my favorite picture of all time! Noah has the absolute best big brother in the world. He is going to grow up loving him and they are going to be great friends!


Caleb was sharing his cheerios with him one morning. It was the first time they have really interacted (and it was over food...Lord help me with these boys!). Caleb would give him one cheerio and he would chew it up. Then Noah would reach over and pull on Caleb's shirt and babble until Caleb gave him another one. We've since had to stop this fun morning ritual due to Noah's tummy. The new foods were bothering him so we just stopped everything to try again another day when he is older.


Caleb came in one morning after I fed Noah. They were snuggling under the blankets together. Of course, he had to bring his little brother a toy...he never lets Noah be without a toy!


Neither of my boys have been in love with the doorway jumper. He jumps in it for a little bit, but he tires of it quickly. If you are sitting right there with him he will jump a bit longer.


Our best friends from the States came and spent a little over 2 weeks with us. It was absolutely amazing! We never dreamed 10 years ago when we first met their family that we would one day be sitting together in our living room overseas with all of our children. It is amazing what the Lord chooses to do in our lives and how He blesses us!


Noah is in love. He is absolutely in love with our house helper, Sabitrya. He can simply hear her voice and start smiling (even if he can't see her). He can be in the middle of a little outburst of tears and stop as soon as she coos at him. It is pretty amazing!


He doesn't get to see her husband as often, but he likes him pretty well too!


They came over one night and we all made a ton of momos. It was one of the most memorable moments of our time with the Jenkins!
