Couldn't Resist!!





First of all, it is just too hot for clothes lately! :) Secondly, isn't he the cutest thing you have ever seen? This is how David greeted Daddy the other day when he got home from work. By the way, we aren't 100% potty trained, just practicing. But, he does love his Elmo undies!

5 years!





Matt and I just celebrated our 5th anniversary on August 3rd! What a joy it is to be married to your best friend! In some ways, it just seems like yesterday that we were standing in front of the church exchanging vows, but in other ways, that already seems like a lifetime ago! I guess having children does that to you! :) Matt and I often joke about our first year of marriage being the "Easy Life." Our bills were low (our house payment only $355!!), we were in school, and we didn't have children! Ha Ha! Now, I would say we describe it as "The Great Life." We see God's work in our lives and see the blessings he has given us. David and Garrett are such entertainment for us and we love the little guys so much. We are constantly in prayer (especially here lately..thanks to the preacher's wonderful sermons) that our faith continues to grow and that we follow God's will for our lives.

At any rate, we had a good anniversary weekend. We were able to spend some time with Matt's Aunt and Uncle at their lake house and we all had a great time just relaxing. Now Matt and I are gearing up for our big cruise the end of this month. We are looking forward to spending time alone together, but David is already looking forward to spending time with Grandparents even more!!

Notice our goofy picture of Garrett? He was in the garage when we had a housefull of company for David's party. He didn't want to miss the action, so decided sticking his head through the cat door would at least let him see the action!

What a day! He was such a little ham and just LOVED the camera! :)

Increased Conversation at the Keller home


Matt was calling David the other day to come out of his bedroom and into the living room. The conversation went like this, "DAAAVVVIIIDD" and David said "WHAT?!? Playing cars." Duh Dad, too busy to come out there! :)

He is talking up a storm lately, it is like turning 2 turned on his vocabulary in a way we never though possible (he was already a chatterbox.) Our little brave boy now says "Hey ___ (fill in the blank with Mom, Dad, whoever), Look at me!" This is being said RIGHT before he does something dangerous like stand on his riding toy or something. Famous last words, right?

Our favorite thing to hear (besides "I love you") is David saying the dinner prayer with us. I tear up watching him and listening to him. Oh to have the child-like faith again. And our prayer is that we can teach him of God's unconditional love and grace. David already teaches us of his wonderful miracles and love!

Our baby is 2!!!






Our sweet David turned 2 on 7/13! It is hard to believe it has already been 2 years since we were blessed with meeting him for the first time. He had a great birthday party! Both sets of grandparents were able to come, and many aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends were there. It truly was a blast. And it was a joy watching David understand the excitement around HIS big day!

We are so blessed beyond words for this little man. He is growing up so fast, but we are enjoying every minute (except the tantrum moments!) He makes us laugh and warms our hearts daily. He is quite the talker and there is never a dull moment. We look forward to what the future brings as much as we look back and enjoy the memories of the past 2 years!
