These are the first pictures that we have of Eliz (short for Elizabeth).  She is named after David's twin Sister, Dawn Elizabeth.  So, her full name will be:  Elizabeth Dawn Robb.   Here ours, and your, first look at her.

Today we celebrated Isaac's 15th birthday....his birthday was actually August 12 but he was at Youth Camp then so we did it today. I still wonder at how time flies when your raising kids. I remember bringing him home from the hospital 15 years ago...I called him my golden boy... with his little tuft of blond hair.  He was a busy little boy, and was only still when he was sleeping... Now he has become a handsome young man...we are often blessed  to see him growing...he loves to serve others... he is still a busy person... but now the constant motion is put to use caring and serving others...This was his second summer to serve as a caregiver in training  at "Summer Getaway" a camp for people with special needs.  We rejoice in what we see before us, a boy becoming a man who loves God and loves to serve. We are so proud of him.

David and the boys are at Youth Camp for 4 days...so Sofie and I are home alone. Since we don't have a car, we are staying home most of the time... but on Thursday we took the bus across town to have a girls' breakfast out at IHOP  and to do a little shopping at Target... that was fun...a little break in the monotony of being home without our guys.  We sure miss them... it is soooo quiet! Sofie and I have played lots of games, mostly "Go Fish" and "Uno", cleaned house, read books, watched movies, taken walks, drawn pictures, done pedicures and manicures....and Mommy is trying to write a blog....can't wait til Saturday when our guys come home.
