Well, this has definitely been a miletsone week for baby Jeff. He is now fully crawling and when I came into the nursery to get him up yesterday, he was sitting up in bed. I guess it's time to lower the crib mattress! We had a lovely day today going to Irvine with friends to a fantastic community pool. The kids loved it and Ben and Jeff wore their matching shark swimsuits. Sarah is getting less timid about the water. She has the highest pitched voice that any toddler could possess. When she saw the water sprayers come on in the play area she turned around in circles crying, "Help, help!" It's been a great day.

Well, we have finally joined the ranks of bloggers. I have to say that this will be an experiment since I am so old-school when it comes to technology. I depend on Mark for all that! So hopefully he will keep it going. But since our families are so spread out and I am not known for my diligence in email correspondence, I thought this might be a good way to keep in touch with every one at once and journal for our family! So this is it... our first posting!

Jeff's Easter triumph!
Who needs easter eggs when your hair looks this cute?
"Mom, are you done taking my picture yet?"
Welcome Baby Jacob!
Jacob Henry Woodland was born on February 1st weighing 7 pounds 5 ounces. We are so happy that he has joined our family. He has made Heaven feel so close. From the moment we saw him, Mark and I have known that he has a special, peaceful spirit about him. He has been an angel and we have never had such a relaxed happy baby! And yes, we needed it. Three children in three and a half years feels like a marathon that you are having to sprint! But it is so joyful---spitup and all-- and when you look at these precious ones, you can only feel grateful for the miracle of life that God has given us! It is hard to believe that he has blessed us with four!
Woodland Clan minus Dad plus cousin Sydney
So here we all are at bedtime when Mark's sister Megan and her daughter Sydney (on the far left) were visiting while Mark was on a business trip!
Sunbeams Here We Come!
Sarah was very excited to be going to Primary with her big brother for the first time. For those of you who are wondering what I'm talking about, at our church before they are three years old, the children go to Nursery where they basically play. But then they go to what most would call Sunday School with the older children. The sunday school class for three year-olds is called Sunbeams.
Sunday Best
This was in January and of course Sarah doesn't have shoes on, but at least we got two of our children to stand still together long enough for a picture!
Jeff in his car "throne"
I just had to put this picture of Jeff in, even though it's from January because let's face it: He spends a lot of time in what Sarah has named his "car throne"!
Sarah's Preschool Christmas party
Okay so this is an old picture but I'm behind and don't want to skip some of these classic moments!
