Keeping it updated


Hey everyone, we are giving this blogging thing an honest effort so here is another post for every ones viewing pleasure. By the way we are eating Eddy's Butterfinger Blast ice cream as we type this and it is fabulous, we really recommend it, you should get yourself some.


Well our life is still going good, we have recently gone through some interesting trials. Per our last we were hoping for Nicole to be pregnant right now, but unfortunately that didn't quite workout. Thanks for all of your prayers for peace and joy through this time we have been stronger than either of us thought we would be and are more and more getting to understand how big God is and how his plan works out for our good and His Glory.


Anyway, moving on... We have been busy as normal enjoying the princess Faithy, and most recently got a membership to the Museum of Science and Industry (MOSI). It is really cool, it is like four stories and very hands on. Faith loves it, so we plan to be there a lot this summer (that is what some of the pictures are of). Chris recently bought Faith some new toys he wants to update everybody on, the first is a puzzle of the United States of America. Faith knows how to put this entire puzzle together 100% by herself. Now just so you understand this puzzle is hard and has no defined slots for the pieces to go into, you literally have to memorize where all 50 of them go, which my beautiful and intelligent daughter has done at 2.5. She also knows the name of probably 20 of the states and can point out where her uncle Abu and aunt Lola live on the map, IT IS AMAZING... She also has a new basketball hoop in her bathtub, in which she can sit on the other side of the tub and shoot a jump shot (with 1 hand) and make the basketball in the hoop. I know this sounds amazing, but the girl is crazy with her hand/eye coordination. She gets the b-ball skills from her daddy Chris and the smarts and good looks from her mommy Nic. Anyway, enough bragging, I'm sure all your kids do cool things too.


Nicole is continuing to be the worlds best wife and mom and is finally settling in here in our new crazy life. Chris is working a lot, but spends all weekend with the family and quality time every single evening. The Sloope Group is doing amazingly well, Thanks to God.


OK, well we hope you enjoy this post and we will keep them coming. LOVE ALL YOU GUYS and we will see you soon!!!
