Just an Update

I'll start with a few pictures. These were all taken at Paul and Lynne's house over the course of the past few months. I love these girls so much!

(Random, but this is what Ruby's hair generally looks like
until I get it tamed into a ponytail, pigtails, or barrettes. Hee hee hee!)

Anyway, those are some of my favorite pics from the last few months. I get to experience so many fun and amazing things during the day watching these three little blessings grow up. I'm sad to say that it is coming to an end. Ruby's allergist feels that it is not wise for Ruby to be in an environment where nuts are present for any portion of the day. So, as soon as Paul gets back from his trip, they will begin looking for a new full-time nanny. If you know of anyone who is interested, please get ahold of me and give me their info.

Ruby is pretty sick right now. She's got a really stuffy nose, a pretty bad cough, and she just seems generally miserable. I think she might have her first ear infection. :( If she's not doing any better tomorrow, I'm going to take her to the doctor. Ugh... This gets old. I'll be thankful for the warmer weather and healthier days.

Mike has completed a new website for a really great local band. As soon as he's shown it to them, we'll post the link here. Mike is interested in doing some sites as a side job. If anyone is looking for a really talented web designer/developer, I know where you can find one. *wink wink* :)

Keep praying for us. Life is changing a lot, and we're simply along for the ride. We've been very blessed, because the settlement from our car and the tax refund we're expecting this year will give us a nice cushion for us to figure out which way to go next. We are so thankful that God has been guiding steps to this point. We know He won't stop now.

We love you all very much. I'm very much looking forward to having more time to keep up with you, pray for you, visit with you, and be a better friend and family member. Pray that God delivers the perfect person to the Owens family to become a significant part of Anja and Isabel's lives.

Possibly some good news...

Lindsay, I actually know someone that has been a nanny before and would LOVE a nanny job. Just today she decided to go hunt for a new job. She goes to Faith Baptist and is a pretty wonderful person, too!

I called her just now, but I did not get an answer. Should I just send you an email with her information?

I hope you find something new, too!!!

Absolutely!

Jonell,

I just e-mailed you. I'd love to get the information to pass along. If it worked out, it might save Paul and Lynne the expense of the newspaper ad.

You have to login to use your name...then it should work.

I am sorry to hear of Ruby's allergy and the changes you all are having to go through. There is a kid in my class at the YMCA that has a peanut and egg allergy and has an epi-pen and everything. He seems to do well with it and his mom has found lots of alternative foods for him to eat. I just hope you all can adjust to it as well as they have. Keep us updated!

Little Ruby, you are just

Little Ruby, you are just priceless......cute cute cute!
