Early mornings, eating, and teeth

Everyday I am reminded of how blessed I am to be entrusted with such a precious child, and a bright, happy, joyful one at that! God has been so faithful in keeping Phoebe safe and well. She recently grew her first set of teeth. If you look closely, you might see two tiny bottom teeth.

It's starting to get hot in the 'Burg. Hot+Humid=Pool

Maddie's 1st Birthday

Maddie Oates had her first birthday a couple weeks ago and had a bunch of her friends over to celebrate.

It's all goo-d!

In Our Backyard

We have such a great backyard where we live. The beautiful view is included in the already inexpensive rent!

And a few more while I'm at it

Ahh...

This is the first time Phoebe didn't freak out and scream bloody murder when she saw John. She is normally deathly afraid of him, much to everyone's dismay. But she's finally over it! She likes John now! We had to get a picture to commemorate the occasion.

What a goofball....

Well, it's been a while...

It's been quite some time since we've posted, and for that I apologize. Sarah and I have been very occupied with planning for our move to LA. Here are a couple recent photos. Enjoy!

My beautiful wife and daughter

I never thought Phoebe could be as adorable as she is... :)

Phoebe loves sitting on our shoulders

Did I Ever Mention...

...that I really like my family?

You should watch this video all the way through. The dry humor is hilarious!

My Happiest Moments

For some reason I was thinking today about my life and what my happiest moments have been. My happiest moments came to me instantly. The following photos explain it all. :)

The day I married Sarah is and will always be the greatest and happiest moment of my life. Words cannot express how blessed I am to have Sarah as my wife. She is my joy and crown and love her with my whole heart.

After marrying Sarah, the day Phoebe was born comes in as the very strong runner-up. Phoebe has been such a joy, and I enjoy loving her and getting to know her more and more each day.

I am so blessed with the two most precious girls in the world. :)

H34T

A friend of mine posted this video from my days back at Biola. HEAT was the name of my floor, and this video introduces several guys from my floor. It's kind of fun to reminisce.

Japanese Scare Tactics

I died laughing after watching this. Gotta love Japanese humor. Enjoy!

Phoebe is crawling!!!

Daddy's Girl...or more like Phoebe's Daddy

I'm sure you've picked up on this fact, but I am the most blessed man to have such a beautiful wife and daughter. Both their smiles brighten my life with so much joy.

Our Growing Girl

Phoebe just continues to grow to be a more beautiful girl. I'd better start dusting off my shotgun soon...(if I had one) She's also able to stand on her own if she has something to hold.
