Baby and Buildout update #3

We're moving along with the buildout...feels like we are so close to being done. We finished installing the drywall and now just need to texture and paint, and floors, and trim....and lights. Boy will i be glad to get this project finished.

Baby Timothy is well on his way. 35 weeks and we're feeling great! I was blessed beyond belief by my church family over the weekend. One of the best things about having a baby at our church is the shower, in which our family and he new addition are prayed over. Plus we got some great gifts :)

Timothy Paton will be here in about 5 weeks and the excitement is growing in our house. When I see other newborns, it's hard to believe that I am about to have another little one myself! we will try to keep posting, especially upon his arrival.

Build-out Update (#2)

So the Build-out is coming along! We have installed all our windows and our back door, installed the siding on the exterior wall and have run the electrical. Here are some recent pics of what the construction site looks like:

Sweet Summertime

The Moore's enjoy summertime! Here are some pictures of a few things we've been up to lately.

 Josiah loves playing outside and we try to get out as much as this pregnant momma can stand it. Though we try to go out early in the morning to beat the heat.

 Josiah doesn't slow down much to take many pictures, but, by God's grace, I was able to capture this wonderful smile!

 We went to visit Matt's Sister's Family late in May and were able to go strawberry picking.

 Josiah kept wanting to pick any and all strawberries, so we assigned him the task of taking the ones mommy and daddy picked and "putting them in the bucket".

 We are fans of ice cream in the Moore house and sometimes Matt surprises us with a special trip to a local frozen yogurt shop.

 Josiah's first time drinking a juice box.

Here's to a happy summer!

Pizza and Babies!

Matt and I make a homemade pizza about every other week. This is one of our newest editions made in our very own brick/mud oven!

 Matt constructed this gem in our backyard using leftover and donated bricks and a $10 steel drum off craigslist. This will probably not be the final oven (as we have some tweaking to do) but it has been fun to make our very own wood fired pizza.

Valentine's day was celebrated with a paint fight in our backyard.

 Josiah is now walking, tumbling just a little and getting more and more comfortable each day! His favorite thing to do, is going outside and exploring the yard. 

Progress of Moore Baby #2:

Size?: over 4 inches long and the size of an navel orange
Week #: 16 weeks
Gender: (coming April 2013)
Matt thinks Boy/Katie thinks Girl----What do you think? Tell us below!
Name: ???? (coming April 2013)

Smiles & Adventures

Josiah hate wearing hats, so he was a bit uncomfortable when we first put him on the bike

Now our family bike trips are a hit! 

Josiah learned to climb into his activity table

But didn't quite get the hang of getting out.

Pit stop during our most recent road trip... already teaching Josiah how to drive

"Hey Mikey....I think he likes it"

Even had to wear daddy's sunglasses. Looks like a chip off the ol' block!

I was brave and made valentines with Josiah. Paint and one year olds are messy business. Good thing I was prepared!

This is how Josiah looks after eating a pb&j sandwich on his own.

Josiah has loved getting outside lately. His favorite thing is to push his stroller around the yard.

Our pomegranate trees are looking good, we think our figs are doing well too. Here's to the Moore Homestead! 

Drumroll, Please.....

Moore Baby #2 is on the way and set to be here in September! 

Progress:
Week #: 9 weeks
Size?: almost 1 inch long and a little larger than a raspberry
Gender: ???? (coming April 2013)
Name?: ???? (coming April 2013)

We are so excited to be bringing another life into this world and have great hope that the Lord will be ever leading us to parent in a way that glorifies Him.

And in the meantime....

Josiah doesn't even know what's coming!

What happens when you give a One-year old a piece of cake?

A Big Mess!

Here are some pictures from Josiah's Birthday last weekend:

We went to eat at our favorite breakfast restaurant...El Sol! Josiah loves this place already :)

Cake and cookies I made for his first birthday: Construction theme

He started out very tentative....

Then got more comfortable...

Then jumped in

This is what happens when you give a one-year-old a piece of cake.
