Two Girls One God…oh and a dog.

We decided to start having a Bible Study together. Matthew! It’s so fun! We are reading and really sharing. We went through the map of Egypt, Nazareth, and Bethlehem.

And…learned so much together. God made himself known in so many dreams; especially to Joseph. He communicates with us so often if we would only listen.

Coopy sure is listening.

And while we were doing this, she had her kids on….SCREENS!! EEK!

But I guess Bluey is OK!

So much fun with my Tot. Amen.

Our family expands! REBORN!

Tatum is FASCINATED with babies. Really any children. She LOVES being a mom! It’s all she thinks about. She cannot wait to have her own.

Today, she purchased a baby called a “reborn” which is a silicone doll that looks exactly like a real baby. He is to “born” in a couple weeks. She is feigning pregnancy, and we’ll have a party!

Levi Andrew…Andrew Levi…Simon. Not sure yet.

In the meantime, she is adopting out all of her kids since she is the owner of a foster care home …wink wink….to get ready for the new bundle.

Today, it’s ASHTON!

He’s enjoying breakfast


PARTY!

Coopy wants some…

Her ability to imagine and then carry it out is unbelievable. I’m fascinated by her and her ideas. I also love to see her nurturing heart in all of this. I do believe she is really maturing through this. She even comments that she is learning RESPONSIBILITY.

Let’s see how this plays out. In the meantime, I’m enjoying the ride. I love her HEART!

My Tot. My beautiful Tot. New book ideas!

Isn’t she? This kid is a whirlwind of creativity, spunk, and fun.

She’s growing up so fast. In fact, she’s enjoying being a MOM!

Yes, she bought a bouncy for Ocean and Penny. Amazing, isn’t it? She even transformed the living room into a play area.

Well, anyhoo….She’s a lot of fun. Now, guess what? We are working on our SIXTH BOOK! Stay tuned for details. Here we are planning it out.

And making funny faces.

Yes, we do enjoy our time. Even when we don’t feel our best. Coopy, thank goodness, watches the kids when this happens.

Meanwhile, we just keep breathing, being grateful, and making the best of it.

I love you sweet girl. TRULY.

I love her drawings!

Firs, I love the emotions. I love each has a name, and they all have a million details. Oh, Rio did an obstacle course while she drew. A win win.

July 9th is TOT and DADDY’S LOVE DAY!

And as usual, he didn’t disappoint. He even sang “You are my Sunshine,” on the piano.

Coopy has to go into the office whenever we play piano because he HOWLS like a coyote! It was cute at first..no not so much..oh that face.

OK, the serenade continues, and Tatum couldn’t get enough so she documented it.

I always wanted to marry a singer!

Ok, so then…it got better! He got gifts for Penny and Ocean! Hair ties and binkies. Cmon!!

Oh and these socks and bibs!! Can you even…..?

Now the best part. She LOVES LOVES Squishmellows. They are these stuffies that have so much personality. Of course she needed more to add to her bazillion collection.

Coopy not for you!!

OK, then we heard a MOOOOO in the distance.

Wow, Daddy! Just so much fun. Thank you so much!

He thought of everything! That is love…thinking about what would excite her. I love HHH’s heart. XXOO Happy LOVE DAY MY LOVE BUG!

Penelope and Ocean…Her new kids!

Tatum is a busy mom of two new children. Penelope and Ocean to be exact! She has to feed them, dress them keep them on their schedules…make sure they are safe playing. It’s a daily grind, and she feels it!

She got them settled and playing this morning.

And then it was time for their feeding. They eat A LOT she is telling me.

Tatum had to cut here off after THREE granola bars!
The hardest part is getting them dressed apparently. They are quite wiggly. However, she has made a changing station in her closet. SUCCESS!
