May in Liberia ~

I love this picture! I say, May, are you squatting or actually sitting down in that canoe? :)

Jayron is 4 months old!

November 30, 2009 ~

Jayron turned 4 months! Yep, we had chocolate cake to celebrate! As you can see, he loves to laugh. But you have to catch it quickly, else the blinking red light from the camera - as you prepare to take the shot - will have him staring mesmerized:)

Thanksgiving in OKC

November 26-29 ~

This was Jayron's first Thanksgiving, and he loved it. You seee, as long as Jayron is carried, he will not cry. There were so many people at ma Kona's for Thanksgiving that Jayron was never put down. More so, he was fascinated by all the new faces. He never cried. And now he laughs a lot, so everyone just loved him. [Ofcourse that spoiling got me into trouble when we later returned to Arkansas and I needed to put Jayron down for a bit:)]

Jayron's Visitors from Dallas

Weekend of November 14 ~

Jayron has visitors. Janice, Martin, Beverly and Joshua. It's amazing how much children like smaller children. I guess it makes them feel great that there is someone smaller than they are and they can take care of them for a change!:)

Birth of Baha'u'llah - It was a warm and beautiful ceremony at our Springdale Baha'i Center.
