Sidebar Update
I've added a new app on the sidebar. It profiles a people group that is vastly unreached with the gospel of Jesus Christ. It updates everyday with a different unreached people group that you can pray for. Scroll down to it.

Sarah's First taste of Food
Are you sure you want m eto do this?
OK, I'll try!
Why are you taking my picture NOW!!
YUK!!!
Sarah had her first taste of food on her 6 month birthday. I think the pictures say it all!!!
Spring Pics of Sarah
Sarah is 6 months old now! Wow, how time has flown! She is still as sweet as a strawberry pie! It is so heartwarming to see her and Luke interact. He kisses her and she can't take her eyes off of him. Some of her milestones lately are sitting up alone, blowing rasberries (especially during church), eating cereal, yo-baby, sweet potatos, and apples,(she hated peas!!), splashing water everywhere during her baths, and she cut her 1st two teeth on the bottom! I hope you enjoy these spring pictures. I can already tell I'm gonna LOVE dressing Sarah in her little sweet dresses this season! Let's hope it warms up and stays that way!
Fun with Mema and Papa in Pigeon Forge
At the beginning of the month we enjoyed a week with Mema and Papa in Pigeon Forge. It was the week of Mark's spring sabatical and mom's spring break. The first 2 days we stayed in an awesome cabin so Mark could stay with us but still have a quiet place to go away and study. Then Mark left to be by himself at Camp Carson Springs and the rest of us stayed in a condo the rest of the week. At the cabin we enjoyed the 2 wrap around porches, pool table, and hot tubs! When we stayed at the condo we enjoyed the FREE mini putt-putt course and the indoor pool! Luke's most favorite thing the whole week was the Ripley's Believe it or Not Farm Mini putt-putt. He made a few hole-in-one putts!

Bye! Bye! Paci!!!
Luke has made another huge leap towards being an independent Big Boy!! He selflessly gave his pacifers to his 2 newest friends Carsyn and Cooper (who we will offically meet in May.) Luke and Mark went around the house and found all of the pacies. Then we wrapped them up and hand delivered the most precious possessions he has ever owned!! He was timid when we got to Carsyn's house but he gave them up!! Yea!!! The next week was VERY HARD on all of us! He would pick up my cell phone and pretend to talk to Carsyn and say "Baby Carsyn..I need my pacies back please! " To celebrate his accomplishment we took him Glow-Golf at Opry Mills. It was lots of fun! Everything is better now! Now all we have left to conquer is Potty training!! Heaven Help us!
Fun Day with Grandpa and Mamsie
We had a wonderfully wet day exploring the aquarium in Chattanooga. The penguins were so cute and my favorite thing is always the butterfly garden. Luke liked the 1st 5 mins. of the IMax but then he chose to sleep the rest of the movie! It always good to spend time w/ grandpa and Mamsie, too!
Catch up
Well, a lot has happened since I posted last time. We have given away Luke's pacifers, played in the snow, gone to the aquarium and Pigeon Forge, and enjoyed the first few glimpses of Spring. So now I get to play catch up!! (If only I could catch-up on some much needed sleep!!! But, the stomach bug and Sarah's 2 new teeth won't allow that right now!)

Dozers and snorts and Cranes! Oh my!
Luke loves to go the church and watch them as they are building our new Life Enrichment Center! We call him eagle-eye because he can spot construction equipment a mile away!
New Friend- Carsyn Jane
We are proud to announce that Sarah has a new friend to play with- Carsyn Jane Beshearse!

Sarah's Turn
Rolling over the 1 st Time!!
Sarah is such a little sweety! I could just gobble her up every second of the day. She enjoys watching Luke, playing on her Turtle, swinging, smiling, babbling all the time, chewing on anything soft and fuzzy, and playing with her best friend Graham. She is so calm and happy most of the time. She rolled over last week both ways- back to front and front to back. Her 4th month well check was yesterday and she is a whopping 13 lbs. 10 oz. (50th %-tile) and 25 3/4 in (85%-tile) Her eyes stayed blue and we can't decide what color her hair is going to be. My best bet is strawberry blonde or light blonde. It's almost time for a hair cut! We could do a ponytail in the back with the exception of a little bald spot!!
This next comment may sound a little on the "blonde side" of things but anyway...It's amazing how God made girls so girlie and boys- boys. Luke was born ALL BOY and Sarah is quite the opposite ALL GIRL. We are very glad for this!!!
My first attempt at Bloggin'
Hello friends! Mark has handed the reins over to me so get ready for family updates and kids pics. (Sorry for those of you who visit for deep theological reasons!:) It's just not my style!)
Things are going great at the Bass Home. Here's the run down...
Luke is growing so fast. He is now talking in sentences, repeating absolutely EVERYTHING he hears, carries a stool with him everywhere he goes so he can get those little GO-GO Gadget arms into everything that is out of his reach, he still loves golf and anything to do with balls, cars, or SNORTS (for those of you who have never read Are You My Mother- a snort is a big backhoe digger), he loves kissing on Sarah, playing with his best friend Juliana, going to Mother's Day out and to Walmart. We just painted his room and are in the process of decorating it with balls. For any of you who have not had the pleasure of having a 2 year old...everything is fun, joyful, and busy..busy...busy:)

Merry Christmas Everybody
It's been a month since I posted anything. Wow. December has been insanely busy as expected. If there's actually anybody who still reads the blog...we wish you a merry Christmas.
I'll be handing the blog off to Emily after the New Year and she will hopefully do a much better job keeping you posted on our family than I have done. I've got other things coming down the pipe that are requiring my time which are more important than blogging.
Merry Christmas world...May you find the reality of the incarnation of Jesus to be your hope and confidence this Christmas.
John 1:14, "And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth."
