Everybody seems to be as happy as can be and loving it here. Little Eevee is now almost 2 months old and the most cheerful baby I know.

I swear that kid is getting more ornery every day. It must be those terrible twos! I on the other hand am very grateful for the family I have and the plan that god had made for
