Freaky EYE


I thought I would add my freaky eye picture. They dialated my one eye at the eye clinic this week and I thought that it looked freaky so I took this picture of myself.

Hi there Friends and Family,


I know it has been a while. Here winter is creeping up on us and I am dreading the cold weather and the staying inside. Somehow I think we will be fine though, We have so many things going on during the week that at least we will get out. But there is nothing I hate more than to force a bundled up child into a car seat. Arthur isn't even fussy when putting him in but it is such a struggle when they are so bundled up that you can only recognise the pure little cute face.


We went shopping today with dad and Arthur got a cute little snow suit that will hopefully keep him dry on the days that we play outside in the snow with Roscoe - all we need now is a little pull sled.



Deon was away on business this week and me and Arthur got to hang out again. Beth and Thomas came over for a play date and the kids ( and us) had lots of fun. Here is a short clip of the 2 rowing in the boat.




and a picture of Beth and the 2 boys.

For those of you who remember Roshni ( The little girl who had the heart surgery) - she is doing really well and getting better each day. She has been in the hospital for a month now and they finally closed her chest this past Thursday and all her numbers are holding steady. We can't wait for her to come home. It might be a while still.

Today I am going to help out at a wedding and the rest of the weekend we will just chill. If the weather holds up we might drive down to Austin to a pumpkin Patch. For us South Africans it will be a new experience.

Love you all.

Carin, Deon and Arthur

Arthur washing



This is a short clip of Arthur washing the windows. He loves helping his mamma cleaning the windows ( It's usualy more of a mess than anything else but at least he's trying and it is lots of fun watching him.






This one is from Arthur helping to dust about a month ago.

Roshni


So our friends baby , Roshni had her surgery last Thursday and wasn't doing so well after the surgery she had to have surgery again on Saturday morning at 2 am but because of lots of prayers from strangers and friends all over the world she is doing much better and is stable and her little body is on the mend. Deon went through on Sunday and took Jude's parents with him to visit. If everything goes well we will drive down this coming Sunday to go visit her.
Here is a picture of her and Nalini just before the surgery.

isn't she the sweetest little thing?

On Tuesday Megan ( Arthur's favorite babysitter) came to take pictures of Arthur in the backyard for a photography picture.She did a great job and here is a few of my favorites.








and here is Roscoe of course.


I am on the run again. I am almost done with the nursery at church. I received the new picnic table yesterday and all that needs to be done now is the new carpet and the mural.

Love ya all and speak soon!!!!
