Hello! 😀
I haven’t done a “Vlog Vandredi” in a while, and since I have accumulated quite a large iPhone library full of clips of our Sonny in action, I thought I’d share a video of some of my favorites here today. Click the play button below if you’d like to watch…
He’s such a curious and vibrant little boy! Last week he was all about Bob the Builder and tractors, but this week he is absolutely hooked on helicopters and riding bike. Today, he saw a teeny tiny astronaut sticker which triggered a new fascination- space shuttles! He like to watch videos of them taking off and asks repeatedly if they can go under water too. 🙂 He also listened/danced to Tenth Avenue North’s “What You Want” ten times in a row this afternoon (he would’ve kept going if we hadn’t persuaded him to switch activities!) and he thanked God for Kit-Cat in his prayer before lunch. He is not a fan of Kit-Cat (and hasn’t met Max), so I’m hoping that prayer means he’s open to eventually being friends. 🙂
Another thing that cracks me up is when he talks about something that tastes good. Instead of saying it’s “yummy”, he says it’s “pa yucky”, which means it’s “not yucky”. So things are either “yucky” or “pa yucky”- ha! 😀
Alright. It’s almost midnight and this mama is pooped!
I should quickly mention though, that if you ordered one of our Pike Road Southern t-shirts in August, Kevin has all but 12 of them shipped out as of yesterday. It took a little longer to fold, package, and label them this time because of our trip to Haiti, and because, well, everything just seems to take us a little bit longer with our precious babe here now! 😀
And speaking of our tees, PikeRoadSouthern.com is up and running for another quick 4-day pre-order sale if you’re interested in swinging by for a look-see. Here are some of the designs we’re offering this month:
Also, the winner of our August t-shirt giveaway is stephaniej_3. (Stephanie, if you’re reading- I’ll be in touch via email tomorrow!) If you’d like to enter to win a t-shirt in September, you can click through to PikeRoadSouthern.com and sign up for a chance to win. Happy weekend, y’all!

Oh my gosh! Your timing on the t-shirts could not have been more timely! I don’t know that you will recall that I told you I had lost my wonderful ‘Don’t give up your daydream’ t-shirt a while ago. I had thought maybe someone had stolen it from my clothes line outside. I arrived here in USA this past Monday and I was cleaning out my friend’s (he’s male) clean laundry and ta-da! THERE IT WAS LOOKING AT ME! YAY!! I must have accidentally left it behind a couple of years ago and forgot about it!
I am so please your little family is getting well acquainted and having such a wonderful time.
Cheers!

Pas yucky, that is so cute! He just jumps off the screen with all that cuteness. The world has been so rough and tumble this year, and your happy story just makes me smile. Thanks for sharing!

Thank you so much for sharing! These clips just made my day. His little voice is like a ray of sunshine. He’s got a good beat going on the guitar there too!

I just now got around to watching this and am sitting the Chicago airport waiting for a flight with tears streaming down my cheeks! This is SO BEAUTIFUL! The LOVE, the JOY, the PROMISEs fulfilled. Thanks for being such FAITHFUL examples and for loving and taking in such a sweet, sweet boy. Prayers on the transitions, but definitely continue to celebrate and capture these sweet memories.
