Well.....i don't know if anyone will even see this post b/c...why check? ...its been FOREVER since i've posted anything!?
SO if you are the rare person that still checks our blog here are some fun random pics over the past few months...


a group shot from DNOW a few weekends ago....HUGE success. Scott did an amazing job of planning and organizing.
FUN and important weekend for our students....and i didn't hurt that David Crowder Band came and did a concert!
this pic is with my phone so not the best but if you look hard you can see the band on the stage...


Macy and Linc at the "dino park" by our house


...i'm attempting to get a pic of them before heading to MDO...this day was Pajama Day!


Linc is SUPER messy when he eats....i'm taking a pic of him and OF COURSE big sister wants in too.


Lincoln's 1st plane ride


We had an AMAZING time a Disney World....too many great pictures to post!


My parents took Macy to see Mickey Mouse LIVE --- she LOVED it! i don't think she moved the entire time! this is a pic afterwards


Macy's 1st trip on a school bus. She told me 'she was a big kid now'


Macy and I making smores with the youth.......i thought it was to not bring my little man around the open flames! =)

WALKING!!!!

Lincoln has been walking for a few weeks now BUT this past week he has really picked it up.....he is EVERYWHERE and is FAST! this is not that great of a video BUT i wanted to show everyone how great he's doing!! He is such an amazing boy ---- he is SO sweet and loving......and now, a speed walker!

Lincoln Michael....

Lincoln is a wild man. He is into everything, cruising (almost ready to walk..), exploring all over ---- he loves to mess with Macy and especially loves to steal her sippy cup and drink it as fast as possible (before she sees him!) little monster. Lincoln is also so sweet. He is loving, easing going and a lot of fun. He is also such the little charmer.
Tonight - i find him 'exploring' in the bathroom....he LOVES to play in water---peyton's water bowl, bathtub and.....now the toilet!

New Pics...

hello everyone!
well, to say our life has been 'crazy' the past few weeks....would be an understatement.
We now live in Houston, scott has started a new job as the student minister at Jersey Village Baptist Church. Also, Macy has an eye condition called Esotropia. Basically meaning, her eyes aren't aligned properly. She is also farsided and therefore needing to wear glasses now. She'll be having eye surgery on Friday july 18th to move and reattach the muscles on her eyes. please pray for her -
we are doing great. macy is making lots of new friends and loves that her 'new church' has 3 playgrounds!



Kroger is huge in H-town...good thing they have these awesome carts!

my family got together and had a GREAT 4th of July get- together...this is not the best pic BUT it definitely captures the craziness of the weekend!


isn't she adorable.

Scott and his kiddos at JVBC in the Warehouse (the amazing youth building)

I am THAT mom at the grocery store!

i know its upside down...but i couldn't get it to flip AND i thought it was worthy of posting anyway! =)

"Reach for the Stars" Linc! (cheesy..i know)

UPDATE!

The Shelton family is busy and crazy like always! Macy is REALLY talking a lot now.....i'll have an entire conversations with her and then it'll dawn on me that.....i just had a lengthy and detailed conversation with my two year old! she is becoming such the big girl - so then naturally, she wants to do 'big girl' things: she loves to help me cook in the kitchen, she likes to help give linc baths, she'll sometimes sit on the big girl potty (and sometimes even go...) , she loves playing outside, loves to run and gallop like a horse --- many nights scott and i will go into her room to turn off her lamp and just smile at our baby girl asleep in her toddler bed 'reading' books! Linc is also becoming quite the little man! He is developing such the little personality and charm. He is almost 6 months and a chunk. He loves his exersaucer and laughing at his sister. Lincoln loves cereal - if your not watching he'll grab the spoon and put it in his mouth all on his own. He is an easy smile and a great cuddlebug. He is such a sweet boy.
Here are some of our latest family pics.....from random to Easter! enjoy!
