The bear that saves so many tears from falling
For those of you who know Selah well know that she is quite attached to a small bear, simply named Little Yellow Bear. Or as Selah calls it, Lello or Lolo. We thought we would give this small tattered bear the spotlight in one of our posts. Dan was the mastermind behind this video shoot, and has informed me that there will be plenty more where that came from. Enjoy!

The latest update
Well, we are almost back to normal around here. I'm the last one, and it just keeps hanging on. With all of the coughing, I either tore the cartilage or the tendon between my rib cage. Either way it's quite painful! But I know God is healing my body and making me well again. So, once I stop coughing it takes 6-8 weeks to heal. Yikes!
I am so thankful that Selah didn't get this viral bug. Through the whole health ordeal it has been Selah that has allowed me to keep my focus and put a smile on my face. Just hearing her little voice and feeling her little arms around me make the day brighter. Selah continues to learn new things everyday. She is very good at communicating, and has even started to put 2-3 words together. Also, climbing is her newest passion. She is quite good at it, but...obviously it is not always safe. Especially when she climbs up on the windowsill or her high chair. We were thinking about getting her into a little gymnastics class. She is very coordinated for her age, so I think she would do well and enjoy it immensely.
I know that I have more stories to tell, I just can't remember them right now...oh wait...Well, for the longest time we couldn't figure out why our VCR/DVD player wasn't working. It just kept spitting out the videos. Well, I peaked in there yesterday...loe and behold the letter K was taking up residence and was causing the problem. I wonder who put that in there?! She was thrilled when she saw it, though. Oh, and her newest thing when we're out and about is to tell people to "watch out" when they're passing by. Yeah, she gets that from me. We've noticed that we really need to watch what we say around her. Our little sponge just soaks up words like there's no tomorrow.
Well, there is a little update on the latest Newcomer happenings. Everyday God is doing wonderful things in our family and has blessed us immensely. We have some exciting events comind up, so I will update later.
