Well, life recently has been pretty ho-hum. We are just moving along, each day similar to the last! Last weekend Aaron's sister, her boyfriend (whom we had not yet met), and his aunt and uncle came into town last weekend for his grandmother's 88th birthday. That was nice and fun to see all of them. They all, of course, enjoyed meeting little Walker.Speaking of the most interesting thing in our life, he is still growing and changing every day. Now he "talks" all the time. He shouts out little vowel sounds and gurgles while he plays, and it is really cute! He can roll over consistently now, so in the mornings, he is on his back just smiling and talking when I go in to get him up. He is such a happy fun little guy! A couple of weeks ago he decided to start waking up in the night again. I think he may be having a growth spurt and just need to eat more, so we are going to try cereal in the evenings pretty soon. Last night he woke up TWICE!! Thank goodness I didn't have to work today!
I have been working my schedule so that I only have to work 3 days a week. It has really been nice since Mommy's back has been so painful for her. Kathleen (Aaron's mom) watches Walker on Wednesdays, and then that only leaves 2 days for Mommy. She loves keeping him, but I'm sure it is hard on her poor back! Of course, the problem is that I should stay home and clean house, do paperwork, etc. on my days off, and she should rest. Instead, we tend to run around and play. Today we are going to Northpark, which has TONS of new stores, to attempt to spend the $50 gift certificate I found in my purse on new summery clothes for Walker. We might accidentally spend a little of it at LaMadeline. Good thing baby clothes are tiny and inexpensive!
Aaron has been enjoying work much more lately. He has had some good sales and has a few big companies that seem to be about to come his way, so that is a blessing. He also has been talking to some men in our church about other career options for the next year and when he graduates including teaching in a private school or pastoring. Please pray for us as we consider all these options and try to make the best decision for our family and God's glory. He registered for his summer and fall classes at DTS this week and is getting so excited to be back in the swing of school! He is taking Paul's epistles this summer, a class in hermeneutics (which will help him with his thesis topic), a greek class focusing on Luke, Teaching in higher level Christian Education, and Hebrew Exegesis in the fall. I am excited for him and not the least bit jealous!
Enough of that! Enjoy the pictures of Walker. Also, I got my haircut and posted a pic of that for those who care!
It's tough to be a baby!
This is first thing in the morning! Isn't he sweet?

Thanks for the pictures! I finally get to change my desktop background. I see his little giraffe in the background.
I can hardly wait to hold Walker again. He is so so darling. It's been almost a whole day! When are y'all going to move in with us?
Great pictures!! Your hair looks cute. I finished my bathroom. The cabinets turned out great. I will post pictures soon.
So, it looks like both of you got a haircut. And Go, Aaron. I loved the Munsters, so I think Hermaneutics would be interesting. I was sad when Fred Gwynn died.
I don't know who Fred Gwynn is, but I like all of the pcitures in your post, they made all of the words not look so scary! Glad y'all are doing well!
The bathroom is olive green and I ended up brushing on the paint and you can see a few lines but I don't mind it all.
Some day maybe I'll get to meet Walker as a small child. There's a strong likelihood that I'll see him someday, whenever that is. A kid reared on the munsters can't go wrong.
Awwwww, he's so adorable! I love seeing pictures. That one of you with him is really cute.... then again, all of them are really cute anyway!
