Random pictures of the kids..............

Flowers from the museum.....(last post about the musuem, promise.)

The museum also has outdoor gardens, waterfalls, ponds, and gazebos. It is absolutely gorgeous.

Reasons Why I love my husband.....(creation musuem continued)

"Hey Martin, you need help? No? Ok, keep up the good work!"

"Hang on kids, I will save you! Wait a minute, this dinosaur isn't real is it?"

The New Creation Musuem.

We have a new museum in Northern Kentucky. It is a creation museum. The Bowen family graciously took us with them to visit it while they were here this week. It is FANTASTIC!!!! Definitely a must see if you are in this area. (only 2 hours from Louisville.) The museum shows creation, the effects of the fall, God's judgement through the flood and then our hope through Christ. It is very well done. Here are some of our pictures with more to come!


Every musuem has to have dinosaurs.

How many Bowens/Crofts does it take to make a dinosaur?

Believe it or not this is only two families!

My family is so cruel to me.

Claire- 6 months old!!

Alright, the current stats: 13lbs 8oz, 25 inches long. That puts Claire in the 10th percentile. That's right folks, we have finally made it on the growth chart!

"I'm how big? You mean I'm on the growth chart? Daddy, can you believe it?"

I am learning to eat like my daddy!

Do you like my new hat?

The anatomy of a roll.

Claire has discovered the art of rolling from her back to her belly. She wanted to demonstrate for all of our fellow blogging fans.

First thing......Game Face!

Now, roll on your side like this. (remember look cute in the process, an occasional smile goes a long way!)


Almost there, squeeze your abs really hard!

Now, lay your head down and cry because you can't figure out how to get back over.

Finally, let your brother feed you! (not actually part of rolling over, but after all that work, you have quite an appetite.)

What Samuel has lost, Claire has found......

Over the course of dinner on Saturday and breakfast on Sunday, Samuel lost 2 teeth! The first tooth I am pretty certain he swallowed. (I didn't "watch" for it to pass through!!!!) The second, fortunately, fell out and rolled under his chair sometime during breakfast.

Claire on the other hand has gotten her first two teeth. They have broken through, but still not enough to get a good picture. If you don't believe me, just stick your finger in her mouth. She will be glad to demonstrate how well they work already.
