Twenty-First Century Lemonade Stand

Mr. Mister and I were making lemonade today and had this conversation:

Me: Next summer you should have a lemonade stand!  Do you know what that is?
Mr.: No.
Me:  You make a lot of lemonade and then set up a table next to the street and sell it to people going by.  You would have to decide how much each cup costs. Like a quarter maybe.
Mr.: Or a credit card.

Haha.  I laughed out loud! But he was serious. And the funny thing is that we could actually make that work with this and my iphone.  I think we'll stick with quarters.

8 Months!

Today our sweet girl is 8 months!
(not great iphone pics but better than nothing)


Some milestones:
She is still army crawling all around and moving pretty quickly.
She loves to practice standing while holding onto something.
She's moving toward finger food, loving cheerios and tiny bread pieces.

And of course, those boys still dote on her (except when she crawls over and grabs the blocks they are building with).

Mr. Mister started calling her Lulu...I have no idea where that came from.
Mr. Newton repeats everything his brother says but his comes out as wuwu, which I think is so funny.  He also still calls her Daywa, which is cute too.  And she adores her brothers.  When she sees them or when I lay her in their beds, she giggles and claps and squeals.  I hope they are always such great friends!


And this past month, we had her baby dedication.  This was a time for us to make a public declaration that she is the Lord's, that we hold her open handed back to Him, and that we commit to raising her to know Him. We are beyond blessed to be the ones assigned to raising her and are praying fervently even now for the woman she will become!

I don't have any action shots, but here she is on her big day with her two buddies.  


I love you, Little Miss!
