Great is Thy Faithfulness!!



Wow, it has been SO long since our last post....things have been so busy down here in Pikeville the past few months! Updating on EVERYTHING may be tough, but we'll do the best we can. Now for the info....

Noah is getting so big! He amazes me everyday with his little personality coming out more and more. He's started trying to crawl....it's pretty much a work-in-progress.... :) He's very good at getting up on his knees and rocking back and forth, but he still hasn't quite gotten the concept of moving his hands at the same time....haha. His facial expressions are priceless! He has a "concentrating" face that we talk about, where he pushes his lips out and furrows his eyebrows when he's really trying to reach or figure out a toy. Too funny! Noah LOVES outside! We are so glad, too, because Mommy and Daddy also love outside. We went on a trip to the Breaks Interstate Park in Virginia with Uncle Jonathan and Auntie Bethany, and Noah had a wonderful time in the Baby Bjorn. When we let him walk through the house holding onto our fingers, the door is the first place he goes to try to get outside. Hopefully that continues as he gets older! Noah hasn't gotten any teeth yet and he's been teething for 4 months! He's a little trooper though, and drools EVERYWHERE! He tries to put anything and everything in his mouth....not just to explore, but mostly to BITE! We are so happy and blessed to have this little guy in our lives! He is amazing!


Onto medical school news! Second year is almost over! Our last block exam is next Wednesday (pray that goes well!) and then Step 1 boards are in July (pray that goes well, too!) Woohoo! Rotations are just around the corner.

Onto our big move to Cincinnati! We bought our first house this week! We love it and we are so excited to move in. It has a big backyard and a deck for lots of outside time that we are so excited about! More importantly, we cannot wait to be closer to our family and friends back home. We miss everyone so much!



Anyway, that's the short version update of the past few months. Once we have more time (i.e. less class, less studying and less driving/moving related time constraints) we will try to do a much better job of updating this blog.
