Ch-ch-ch-changes...

The summer came, and brought with it a wave of changes. Many of the changes I am refering to can be seen simply by looking at Lily! She has grown so much, and is looking more like a toddler and less like an infant everyday. She is also becoming more active and more active - she's climbing up onto furnature and up stairs, standing herself up, and even walking. She can now take up to 5 steps on her own before diving into our arms.

Another big change that has taken place is for the McDonald family is...a new house! Thanks to Uncle Todd, we are currently renovating our future home. As you will see from the pictures, the house was a disaster area when we purchased it. Now, after a lot of hard work from family members and volunteers, the house is well on its way.

As the end of summer break draws to a close, we are looking forward to NOT going back to school, as well as a break in the heat! We continue to enjoy our constantly changing life, and look to the future with open eyes and hearts. We ask that you keep us in your prayers as we continue to grow and develope as a family.
