Yesterday Evie got her first tooth! No fussing, but definitely some drooling.
Also, Jakob declared this morning that he is baby Jesus and I am Mary. 
He is currently having lots of fun playing with his early Christmas present from Dan and I… a castle with knights!
Getting ready to travel to Spencer for the weekend. Then Ames over Christmas. Then Osage Beach, MO for Faithwalkers. Fun times!

This week has been a big one for Evangeline. We started her on some rice cereal since she turned 6 months today. I think she likes getting to sit at the table and actually get to put some of this “yummy” stuff in her mouth. She has been watching us intently whenever we put food into our mouths this last month.
The other thing she started this week is rolling from her back to her front. She had done it once or twice awhile back, but nothing serious. Then on Saturday she really started trying to do it every time we laid her on her back. Today, I laid her down on the floor next to my feet while I checked my e-mail. The next thing I know she is a good 5-6 feet away from me! Time to really start watching this little girl!
Jakob has been very much enjoying reading through The Beginner’s Bible. We are in the New Testament, reading about Jesus’ teachings and miracles. The one that he keeps wanting to act out with me is when Jesus puts mud on the blind man’s eyes. He’ll shut his eyes randomly, and say, “Jesus, I need some mud.”
