With the older two boys working, all the youngest Lamberts sleeping, and everyone else at art class, Jon and I are left alone every Friday afternoon for a few hours. I try to plan something fun each week. I hope he’ll look back with fondness as he remembers this time with me each week. I sure love these moments with…

Jon
These little boys melt my heart. Silly faces and all….
Jonathan’s 6th Birthday
Happy birthday to a big boy– six years old. My, these days do pass so quickly. A chocolate chip cookie cake that looks like a chocolate chip cookie. *smile*These littles make my heart melt. I know the days are approaching when he’ll be too big to crawl up on my lap and let me just hold him. He is a…
Jonathan
Yep. There’s not much to say except that this is a picture I took last week on a day when Jon decided to dress himself. I made these shorts for him some time back. He loves them. There is pretty much nothing else to say except that I’m going to tuck this picture away safely for a date some time…
Jon, Emma, and the Culture of Littles
Jonathan got sick at church last Sunday. I mean, REALLY sick. I think it was a combination of he just got too hot, he had just consumed a large amount of water, and he was running around with all the other kiddos having fun. As it would happen, this event occurred at just the spot where everyone gathers for fellowship…
Missing Joshua
It’s an odd thing to be missing Josh this week. I think I hear him walking through my home at times. I miss hearing his voice from his office. Everyone misses him. The older children miss visiting over lunch where they all congregate mid-day. The littles miss playing with him in the evenings. Jon sat on Sunday night to paint…

My little guy is growing up so very fast….
Jon’s Christmas Ornament
Jon made a reindeer ornament for our tree, this year. He had a little trouble with our craft glue. He kept getting glue on his hands and asking to go and wash them. What can I say, this boy likes to have clean hands. 🙂
Jon- age 4
“I put the pen behind my ear and it blasted!!!” It had almost faded away by this morning…I wish I had thought to take a picture last night. It was one of those “scrapbook moments”.
Glow Bath
Tonight’s fun….glow bath– we like to shake things up just a little from time to time. *smile* So, the ingredients for this night of fun…..a bathtub, a handful of glow sticks from the dollar store and a bunch of littles: This little person didn’t want to come out of the tub!
Our Newest Sewing Projects….
We’re always working on sewing/craft projects. Here are a couple we’ve finished lately: I painted this glow-in-the-dark shirt for Jon over the summer after finding inspiration in a children’s magazine. He has loved wearing it outside in the evenings, and I can spot him easily. 🙂 We’ve worked on several other projects, but this is the biggest. Courtney is making…
Sewing Projects…
I can’t remember if I posted pictures of Jon’s new outfits or not, and I don’t have time to look just now…. I made these out of 1/4yd of fabric and had just enough left to cut out a portion of the design from scraps and applique them on to a t-shirt. This was an EASY project but I wasn’t…
